Alex B Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Did my first track day of the season. Was hosted by my friends over at #trackaddict at Rockingham raceway. With Myself, Jody and Marcus from MLOC attending 60 car open pit lane day. Very good track manors from everybody. One red flag Felt like the track was empty for most the day. After some track side mods, a short a sweet drivers brief we were off. The morning started off lovely and dry. I managed to get some good laps in and put the shitbox through its paces. Lunch came along far to quick and unfortunately brought the promised wet weather with it. The rain made the track very slippy as it's not got the best of grip in the dry let alone the wet. All in all a cracking day out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex B Posted March 12, 2015 Author Share Posted March 12, 2015 Good to see you are out again Alex, Jody and co. Where next? (Like the front plate Alex looks good!) Next for me will be Cadwell park may 28th unless I sneak an April outting in. Front plate is an eBay special was £4 I think, it's reflective so almost legal.

Austintaff Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Oooooooh Cadwell. I love that place!! Will have to clear the diary!! Added bonus is a good curry house on the route back to Notts! Will have a look on e-bay for a plate. The current appendage is waaay too big! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will have a look on e-bay for a plate. The current appendage is waaay too big! Number plate sticker was from here. Few different sizes available. Just give him reg details on purchase. Alternatively if you want smaller "proper" plates dono market will be the best bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KurtB Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Agreed, that looks great! Are the headlamp covers slightly smoked? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austintaff Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Covers are clear. Must just be the evening light and questionable quality of the camera on my phone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
