Guys, I can now say for certain that I will not be taking my F onto the track, but I do still intend to show up. If you want my place please let me know ASAP. Jas, unless things change in the next few hours, I plan to come in my daily driver 5 series, for two reasons: 1) to watch you guys having fun and 2) to distribute some calendars. Can you please let me know if I will get onto the airfield as a spectator in a BMW? Cheers, Nigel.
Jas I am looking dangerously like I may have a problem with tomorrow. I am trying to get away with coming till noon but work obligations are challenging to say the least. Please PM your mobile number so that I can let you know whats happening in the morning. rgds James
Can somebody please PM me Jas's mobile number? I have a replacement driver for my slot but need to confirm it's OK. Jas?
SteveF, are you sure about that? I thought Dale doesn't even dare take his car out in bright sunshine 'cos of all the UV rays Nigel (F328GTS), you have PM in a minute Just got your message. James (JRS), you have PM too
Jas, Call me a chicken or a wimp or even Dale but if its raining tomorrow I will not be coming, I just wanted a nice dry day no skidding or sliding for me, sorry, won't know till tomorrow tho ??
Its best if its raining. 1) you can skid and learn without having to go to ludicrous speeds 2) Its easier on your tyres, clutch and every other component that would be stressed trying to break traction from thoese super sticky tyres. 3) In any road situatiion the most likely event that your car will skid will be in the wet so this is a great opportunity to learn in safety. So long as its just light rain as is forecast i think it will be just perfect !
Jas, I'm still coming!!! My RH wiper is a little fcuked, so I'm knackered if it rains too much, but I'll bring my 13ml spanner and some tape to bodge it up. See you there buddy. Still have your mobile number in my 'phone. Richard (off to bed now as alarm set for 5:45!)
Si, sorry to hear that mate Next time I'll organise this for August to keep everyone happy. Jas PS. Logging off now. See you all tomorrow ....or those of you with working cars, that have survived the rain anyway PPS. Sorry for having to turn away non Ferraris in the last couple of weeks, but there are plenty of general events for such cars and I wanted to keep a Ferrari atmosphere for this day (as "advertised").
Richard, glad you can make it I'll be at the two Kent meeting spots 06:45 and 07:00, per the other thread. In the 348
