Nic there is evening sessions at KH that would be ideal to start off on, I've been to a few this year where there was as little as 3 people on track at the same time. I'll be taking the 106 to one of them for the first time, they are ideal. I'll meet you up there if you do go, it's closer than the last RR day location.

Yeah we shall communicate about it for next year. I dong think it will be an often sort of event it's far too costly and generally not the mind of car for the job. Let me know when your 106 is done Danny and see what we can arrange

i don't see why you have this fear of your car not handling, i reckon it would be on par with most cars you see on track events these days

TBH I wouldn't bother with castle combe at your location, what is it £20 for 15 mins or something rediculous?
KH can be as little as £70 for 4 hours+.
AK quite often organises track sesh's.

Its attention seeking imo.

He has created this thread saying he is gonna do a track day,but he has no faith in himself or his car performing well.

He has been offered some advice from these people he calls "Track Guru's",but has chosen not to accept it.

See it all the time in his threads,thats whats making him look fake these days.

corsa_sport21 you say barnes is attention seeking, wtf and where has he refused any advice in the whole thread he has asked for certian people not to comment because 90% of there replys in other threads are just pisstake comments.

You obviously have never even spoken to barnes as he is the last person who is an attention seeker

He has been advised to sign up to WR for some usefull tips,and has clearly stated he has no interest.

He claims to be doing this for fun,yet has stated he would probably have more fun doing it in the Vectra.So why not do it in the Vectra.

he probably would have more fun is his vectra as it has a 3rd of the power of his corsa he has said many a time to me that the corsa is an absolute animal to drive and im sure he is doing this to see if his car will be anygood at doing a trackday he has always planned to do one if its any good im sure he will be doing more he only refused the advice because of the person that gave it imho and that is understandable considering said persons usual comments

£120 it equates to about 6 laps of the ring, which if you did them in succession would be about 60mins of track time, so for a whole open pit day its a bargain imo
