Well, not a lot more to add about Brands on Monday as Neil has done a fantastic job and summed the day up perfectly.
The FRP run faultlessly and greatly impressed with it’s first trip out, my tyre choice made the day very existing with my Dad spinning off on Paddock hill before 10 o’clock which resulted in a bit of work to remove the gravel from the passenger front alloy and varies other parts of the car.
Really glad you enjoyed the few laps in the FRP Neil, even with the limited traction and a few moments of oversteer, understeer and 4 wheel slides.
The official photos are not online yet, but i’m not sure how good they will be with the way the weather was.
A few videos of the day from the guys at BriSkoda, starting with the R32 in car crash footage at Drids, followed be in car footage of a Fabia off at Paddock Hill and lastly the metal Yeti doing a hot lap on semi slicks.

Hopefully will try and get out before christmas and back to Brands to try for a dry day.

The MSV Photography prices were very strange. I only wanted 2 or 3 of the photos but ended up buying 30 of the digital downloads as it was the same price :/

I`ve found trackday photography people to be quite flexible if you appear to not be interested.
I have been offered a disc of photos for £25, but walked out with the best 3 for a tenner.
Last time out 3 of us went in together and haggled a package with all our cars on one disc for £40 (instead of £75)
As a regular trackdayer I dont often bother, only if its a special day or a crew of us have gone out together and we want a `group hug` photo of all our cars together.
I`ve been lookng at the attendees list for Blyton on the 23rd and there is a `manx puma` attending.
Is it anyone from the forum?

Hey trublustu, Its me Kenner I called that as it came my puma came from Isle of man. My dad had over there, just little quirky lol Mark and Martin me mates that defo driving.
Looking forward to Blyton been talking to Noorbrider on facebook. I wasn't meant to taking my puma as mate martin who's coming dropped out taking his Pumesta last week so its been a little scramble to get mine sorted has haven't used it for ages. planning on doing fair few track day next year. (as I made a deal with misses) I am cracking on with it this weekend at mates garage only got to service it fit full strut kit and bit clean up and spanner check. Hopefully he might be coming with his cosworth if got it done in time but he only bought it a few weeks ago. There is fair few of us coming along, they all using my car to have some fun. We be there with a medium size blue tent next transit van/camper so if the weather is crapy we can hide out the way of it. So come along for brew/chat etc.
All being well if physiotherapy gives me ok I will be having a drive but I hurt me back and not been doing well which totally sucks, but its not the end of world. I like setting it up and getting car ready also gives me mates some fun too.

Hi Kenner. It`ll be good to meet up on track with other Pumas.
It`s good to get inspired for your own mods, I believe..
I hope your back is in good enough nick to get out. Spring isn`t far away if not :wink:
Where are you based btw?
Are you any nearer booking yet Nick. And are your lad and his crew on board yet?

Just booked Cadwell sunday 7th Dec

still not done Brands in puma, but was looking at the Javelin day there, and they have about 70 cars booked for indy, which means either lots of queuing or so busy on track and lots of red flags, I'd rather pay £30 more for a 1/3 less cars booked in.
