Anyone doing a track day on this date? Seems a good price at £109 http://www.msvtrackdays.com/car/calendar/2015/february/7-ba-gen.aspx It'll be my first one so slightly nervous.
Yeah looking at the videos of it, can see theirs plenty of run off areas. Tuition I'm guessing will be worth it for a novice like myself? Rent a helmet instead of buying one? Do most people take tools and spares ect?
if you are going to do any other track days, i would buy a helmet, the hire ones can be a bit mank. Take tyre pressure gauge, torque wrench, and defy get some instruction as early in the day as possible, and lastly, enjoy it mate.
You can get an OMP helmet off ebay for less than £50, open face, just do the normal checks before you go and enjoy
Theres nothing to crash into at bedford, think only the bend before the long straight if you really lost it, great track and super easy tuition is like £20 and well worth it. Take your time and build up. Give the car a rest after say 15mins or you will boil your fluid and melt the tyres. in fact if you can, get some decent fluid in as it will ruin your day if you boil the fluid early on
Bedford is the only one I've been on and both tracks are really good beginner tracks with very experienced tutors ....it's a great day out
Bedford SEN is an awesome layout but if you can wait until the 28th Feb, there is a Renault/Ford owners day there to and there's loads of CS/CSOC members going to that - Also only £109 http://msvt-staging.motorsportvisio...ord-and-renault-owners-track-day?utm_campaign Mick
