Another fantastic trackday - thanks again to both Nick for all his unpaid graft and to Chris Rossiter as well for free tuition and advice we're truly lucky to have these guys doing so much for the benefit of all.

'Twas damned cold for camping, and a sunny but chilly start gave way to a good bit of summer heat mid morning meaning dry track and a lot of laps. I put 178 miles on mine, doing the first lap and taking the 5pm chequered flap with the fuel light on.....

Very successful raffle and the evening session went well.

Thanks again Nick'n'Chris!

Yes congratulations nick
 
My first visit to Cadwell and wont be my last - a great day was had by all
 
No accidents no roadrage, great tracktime as Andrew has said so great VFM, great raffle prices in quality and value.
 
It was cold for those camping Monday night - I thought I might have found Mr Everett frozen in his tent in the morning - but the sun came out and we defrosted and ended up in short sleeves.
 
We did 150 miles but did spend some time fettling with some cars
 
Roll on Croft and Silverstone - cant wait
 
Also well done to Steve Bostock and Viv who help Nick and the carclub at so many events - cant wait to see Darrens pictures and the video on youtube

Brilliant brilliant day....thanks again for organising it Nick. I sometimes wonder where my life would have gone without you 

And we know you had sleepless nights because the numbers were down. So.....to all those who doubt whether they should do a track day or not ....I am a very old lady and on my 4th BMW/7th track day in just over 2 years....and if I can dare to take my 2 year old M3 on the track ...........you really really can as well!! So... come on ....sign up for one!
