ZMANALEX Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 A full track day at KRC on Saturday 8th August The morning session is organised by SIDC and will run from 9am-1pm and will be open pit lane. There is a great mix of cars for this one and KRC are providing two race instructors at no additional charge for anyone who wants to polish up on there track driving technics. The afternoon session is with Autoeccosse and again there will be a great mix of cars. This one will run from 2pm-6pm and it also will be open pit lane. There is also to be hospitality laid on for this one so no one should go hungry. I am planning to be there for the whole day, so if any one fancies coming over then please do so. There is no entrance fee and the pitwall will be fully open. Helmets can be borrowed for the day if you fancy a few pax laps or you can just spectate if you wish. If you have not attended before then please do not be shy and come over and introduce yourself as we really are a very friendly bunch. Alex.

Stew Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Working again! I'm sure knockhill organised their calander so I could make as few visits as possible. I'd have definitely been there otherwise. I mean burgers / spectating / driving at KH - that's some quality time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddmroadster350z Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Ideal conditions this morning Alex These young guys don't know what they are missing Glad Vik enjoyed the afternoon session, hope it stayed dry for you Derek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZMANALEX Posted August 9, 2009 Author Share Posted August 9, 2009 Ideal conditions this morning Alex These young guys don't know what they are missing Glad Vik enjoyed the afternoon session, hope it stayed dry for you Derek Yeah Derek conditions were great untill 5 pm and then the heavens opened. I was knackered by then, 247 laps, 240 litres of V Power, a set of tyres and brake pads. Was starting to get severe cramps in my hands and the hamstrings were tightening up and my neck and shoulders were aching. Besides the issue with that one boost pipe (now fixed) the car performed absolutely brilliantly. Like you say I was a bit surprised at the lack of interest from the local younger forum members but those that did make it including Steve and Claire had a real hoot. Oh and I think that Vik and her mate had some serious fun. Back out again on Monday night 6pm - 8pm ......... all welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I,m not surprised you were knackered after 247 laps, when I left it was about 70 or less It just goes to show how well the Z can perform under such stress Very obvious you are fitter than a " Quick Fit Fitter" Will phone you if I can make it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone withing striking distance of Knockhill must be mad to miss out on ZMANALEX's offer, a great chance to find out what a ZED can do, albeit it has a few little tweaks in an attempt to match Alex's abilities.
