No painkillers needed today Gavs. Last weekend was a different story altogether. Just needed time, and thankfully, time has helped.
Just hope nobody tries any rugby tackles on me lol

Don't worry too much about it Kiz, just turn up in the mr2 and take it easy.
Me and Ria are both ill as "censored" at the moment, we have been laid up in bed all week with no energy. I've lost over half a stone and we are still bad but we are both going to be on that track. I ain't wasting £160! Lol
I'll apologise in advance if we are not very sociable on the day, we will probably just stay sat in the cars so we don't pass it on to anyone

Looking good there Wedge
Weather is looking so so tomorrow so let's hope it holds out.
Well, been up since 4:30 this morning so think I'm going to hit the hay.
See you all tomorrow

Re: Silverstone Taster Sessions - 6th March Payment Link add
Not long got back after a typical MR2 convoy (let's just say a black turbo needed the ECU fault codes) and I sat at 56mph as my brakes were a little under performing after the track session! 
What a great day, thanks to Woody for organising
I've always wanted to drive on a proper circuit and can cross that off my bucket list now! Sorry if I held you up! 
Thanks again to everyone for a great day. I think everyone behaved exceptionally and hooned in a very safe manner
Looking forward to the pics and vids...

As said thanks to woody for organising a great day. Had an awesome day [emoji106]
Got the intercooler pipe back on in the end, my car is really slow with no boost. Think everyone overtook me after it came off [emoji23]
Need another one soon [emoji4]

Re: Silverstone Taster Sessions - 6th March Payment Link add
Big thank you to everyone who attended and supported the day, it was really cool to have 19 MR2's out being driven around Silverstone in anger. I'm pleased to report that everyone left in their cars all in one piece which was a big relief, and a credit to everyones etiquette on track
Had an awesome day hooning around the circuit and seeing what the car was really capable of. All of the hard work seems to have paid off Also nice to give something back after all of the events that I've attended though the OC and done nothing to help organise
Following a few chats on the way back I may consider running something in the same format latter in the year if there is any interest/demand, or alternatively for those who want something slightly more serious, someone (not mentioning names) has kindly volunteered to look into the possibility of having a day at brands hatch.
I've put up a thread for any photos and videos people got from the day (link below).

Glad everyone seemed to enjoy themselves

Re: Silverstone Taster Sessions - 6th March Race Day
Enjoyed today, three tanks of fuel later, apologies for not getting there earlier to socialise, thought I wasn't going to make it at all earlier in the morning.
Typically. All my track day prep and didn't empty my catch can.
Brands is good but a bit far for those not in the south East.
Much more punishing on the car compared to Silverstone.
