Andy has generously offered me a helmet to use [img]images/graemlins/bowdown.gif[/img] any idea how long the day will be? how many sessions and tracktime?
Also a breakdown of cost would be good too as i will need to save up the funds [img]images/graemlins/tung2.gif[/img]

Hey mate, if it's like the last one then no sessions ie an open pit day - you will have as long as your brakes allow, which on OEM will be around 4 to 5 laps [img]images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] If you get any brakes probs at all I will be there to assist and deglaze if necessary (and that goes for anyone else [img]images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]) so you should get around 25 laps during the day.

does this mean i wont be able to drive home due to pad wear? [img]images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] im getting worried now. oooooo can i just do 3 laps then let the brakes go back to normal then do 3 more and so on?

Open pit, hope there wont be any loons... i want to cruise and get used to it first. [img]images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

[Andiroo]

Riz, the only loons are us - it's our trackday [img]images/graemlins/thumbs.gif[/img] no-one else will be there [img]images/graemlins/thumbs.gif[/img]

If your pads are'nt too worn when you first arrive, then they will be fine for the drive home, just on the track you generate so much heat that they will fade after a few laps, but once they are cool they're OK again.

Stop worrying [img]images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
