There's an rs owner day at croft soon, sure it's only about £130 as well
Which is cheap for croft
I want to try do croft and knock hill, don't want to go too far untill I get a trailer or truck

I'm currently considering buying a cheap saxo or 106 to throw around oulton and/or anglesey a few times this year.
Considered taking VXR on but its no where near as much fun as previous track saxo/106s.

I'll most likely be doing Anglesey and Oulton in the civic hopefully. Already booked to go to the ring in August too!
Need to get a few bits a bobs done first before I will fully unleash it on track. Baffled sump is top of the list I think!

I need to sort funds but I want to get to Anglesey and Oulton again this year. I also fancy giving the strip a try so I might be heading to the pod or Shakespeare county raceway at some point.

Lydden was awesome, track was a little greasy. GoPro videos have come out wicked aswell.
Brakes didn't fade one bit! Well pleased.
Fastest lap i've noticed so far was 56 secs.

My first and only (so far) trackday was at Oulton last year but Im hoping to get at least two trackdays done this year. More than likely Oulton Park and Anglesey.

My favourite track! The location is what does it for me. Just something about where it is and the track layout that keeps me going back.
Nice cafe, can camp there, showers, bit of a drive to a shell petrol station if fussy on fuel about 10mins.
There is fuel on site during the day. Fixed times but if you ask nicely they will come open it for you
