I had no idea where that title was leading - certainly wasn't expecting that

[Wasso]

Me neither

 

That was prime opportunity for some J turns or at least full pelt on the dry and whack it into the wet with the handbrake.

[WhackyWill]

Excellent.. :thumbs:

[bronzee]

Yeha, skid pan.

[Dave-350]

C'mon, this is how its done!

Oh if I'd known you were doing slidey dancing on a skid pan I'd have blown out the Grasshopper too....

[docwra]

Id have been more interested in the dry bits around it TBH

 

Where is that and how did you get onto it?

There was a lot of water around that skid pan - im sure your daughter would have taken the opportunity to completely soak me again if you had come lol.

 

In all honesty though it was a great day and what is even more amazing is that yes - that is Ken on that Skid pan in his OWN zed and he really went for it. Never seen it so dirty afterwards lol Good one ken

We were at Rockingham for the track day, they opened that for people to try out for free during the day which was great

I would love to do a track day but having never done anything like that before I'm slightly intimidated! Don't want to wreck my car driving like a looney under peer pressure, but don't want to get in the big boy's way either!

[Will370z]

You should come along to the next one to see what they are like and come out in one of the cars. Take it at your own pace and it is fine, going past your level of skill is when problems occur

So that would be anything more than just driving there and parking then?!

[Will370z]

I couldnt possibly comment lol

 

Nice video there dave, darren and ken have a way to go bevore they are up to that level. Mind you darren did go off piste on the skid pan and left halfof his michelin pss's on the tarmac.

[coldel]

I heard you might have met a VX owner or two there!

[Will370z]

Yup nice bloke in the garage next to us. It was superdoopercharged and flew. Darren was rather taken with it.

[coldel]

I think Darren may be moving back to the dark side of go-kart cars

[Darren-B]

Nice one Will, very good. Can just about distinguish the 2 different cars by the wheels. Normally it`s quite easy as Kens is always so dry, clean & shiny

[Darren-B]

Yes, Ryan was there in his SC VX220 I spent most of the day admiring it & then had the opertunity to go out on track with him

 

Oh how I miss the handling of the mid engined go-karts. (I want my Elise back)

[Darren-B]

& in car not doing very well

 

[andyvvc]

I'll try to put a few of the videos i took up. The GoPro footage in-car with Darren is 2Gb tho, so that's probabaly not going onto You Tube for a while yet doh! (It's a cracking video though with expert commentary from Will Brundle and Darren Walker )
