I may be there in the 106, it's a good day over there, me and a mate were on the first one they did as I live in peterborough/ketton it's ideal,
Had abit of hassle though as part of the track goes from the main air field to a side area, there's a massive bump, was ok in the wet (abiet having to slow down for it in the fear of breaking our backs lol) , but when it became dry, my mate shattered a cv and a kit car took his diff out on it lol.

it's pretty bad, just depends on your angle of attack, ride height and suspension set up, though I have heard they change the course from day to day on feed back and we let em know lol, so you could be completely fine,
They are a good bunch of people running the days if they are the same ones they trailed our car back for us at the end of the day so I didn't have to try towing it lol,
I'm in paston in peterborough (not the nicest place lol) car lives else wherre though.

sounds like they were pretty good tbf, suspension isn't too bad, not low and isn't too hard so hopfully won't be too bad for me, get booked on 
Some parts of Paston arnt too bad, but yea think I'd be keeping the car elsewhere too lol

Andys just rang javelin about the bump and they've said the track can/has been altered to stop this having as much of an effect on everyone
