I think the best we can hope for is 'light showers'

[PJC]

can someone bring a kettle and an extension lead for a brew, i will bring milk etc

[PJC]

The Lotus is somewhat small on the luggage dept

[Graeme4130]

I'll see if I can remember
The wife won't be happy if she wakes up with no kettle
Didn't you get a nice thermos from Audi on Sunday ?

[Graeme4130]

Forecast it getting better
I've not been to Donnington before and it's first proper track day in my RS4 as TVR's long gone and van's resigned itself to bike lugging, so should be intetesting see how rs4 copes
Have booked instructor for first hour as keen to learn how the track works

[HYFR]

i've not yet booked, but Chris emailed me to day to say he still has spaces at the discounted rate ... just need to get sign off from the missus

question is do i swap my 888's back on ?

[PJC]

Yes.

[HYFR]

but the temps are 5-7c
even if dry, its cold ?

[PJC]

You should get enough heat in, as long as there is no standing water its worth having them on, if I had the choice I would have my AO48 on but in damp or the wet they have so little grip so its not an option and its not worth taking two cars just for the tyres. Tempted to get something I can tow with, pity that rules the B8 RS4 out. Had a go in the new Range Rover Sport this week, mmmmm very nice.

If the track day was at Brands I would put them on and run the risk of it raining, Donington is too far to run the risk.
