...to Tim and the rest of the team for another faultlessly organised day. I poled out after my 1500 session got red flagged. I believe the 1600 session suffered likewise. A miserable drive home but not enough to spoil a good day.:D Roll on the Rock! Rgds, Paul

Good to see you there Paul and glad you enjoyed the day. The 16:00 session was interesting and as and many blues had also left, we rolled the 16:00 into the 16:20-16:40 session giving us 40 mins - not as though our cars were getting too warm ;) A good session as the standing water cleared although interesting on the new areas of tarmac! See you at Rockingham. Are you coming up for the BTCC? Tim

Daughter may come for BTCC and she could take the missus home, as she has work on Monday otherwise would stay on for MGoT. Rgds, Paul

[b]Another great day![/b] My second MGoT trackday, and thoroughly enjoyed again:) . Thanks to the organisers, and to the bunch at the Premier Inn for making me feel very welcome (Dick, Doug, Mark, Mike and Lee). Was wondering if anyone in the Green 11.40 session got the photos, and can see my green RV8 spinning in the background?? Would like to see it if they have. :D

[b]Big Thanks from Club Triumph[/b] Joe, Tim and all unseen workers [B]Club Triumph[/B] would like to say a big thank you for another great day. Everyone of the Triumphers I gave spoken with, and that's nearly all of them thoroughly enjoyed it and would like to come again. The Club Secretary even was overheard in the pit garage saying "There is some great machinery of the Octagon kind here." Must have been an impressive day :eek: :D :D Cheers, Chris & CT

[b]another thank you[/b] Thanks to all the organising team - talk about clockwork! Thought the revised Club was interesting - no idea if I was on the approved line there, but I found I didn't need to lift off after Vale in my reasonably healthy 1.8i. And the new kerbs are nice! And I was very pleased that the end of my cat broke off on Tuesday as I would have seriously exceeded the 105dBs if it had been on Monday...

Yes, an excellent day all round! As a first timer, I felt the day ran very smoothly even if some aspects were a bit confusing at first (and a minor mix-up regarding where to pick-up instructors!) but I know what it's like to run an event like that. I had lots of fun, a few hairy moments particularly in the wet (anyone see a white V8 sideways out of Copse?) but it was a great experience. Shall definitely be doing it again! Thanks to all involved - see you again sometime! Martin ________ [URL="http://maine.dispensaries.org/"]Maine Dispensaries[/URL]

Still can't get some of the corners right; but, great fun practising :cool:

I just want to say thanks to Tim and the rest of the hard working organisers for arranging another great day at Silverstone. I can see why it sells out so quickly. Cheers John

Matt the techy of the family is up in Scotland at the moment I will get him to try and copy your spin and send it to you. I we can't I will get it on a disc, we will be at Rockingham if you are say hello. We (Matt) managed to break the car in next session, the clutch slave cylinder went. We limped onto the A43 and called out the RAC, once fixed I intend to return to trailering it. Peter
