What a great day at Snetterton! The help from the Michelin guys was a great boon! to be able to quickly check all four tyre pressures and get the temperature of tyres on the inner, middle and outer edge was brilliant I learnt so much it was great! My drive at the end of the day was much better than at the start of the day! I am looking forward to Cadwell park now and adding to my knowledge.

Yet again Nick many thanks for a great day! I have the feeling of another Track Day Article coming on for Straight Six I learnt so much. I know most people know all about tyres but I am just starting to learn and I think it is fascinating to experience what the guys were talking about!

MANY THANKS!

I'll second Duncan, this was my first track day and I had an amazing time. Met some great guys on the day and seriously enjoyed it!

Going to have to book up another soon, unfortunately I can't do the 7th May as I'm on holiday =(

Big thanks to Nick and the rest of the team who helped arrange the proceedings, was well organised and I felt very welcome :)

The young lad, who I assume was Nick's kid? had a fantastic smile on his face all day, especially after a trip out in a GT3 RS :)

Cheers all!

Sean

ps; let me know if you see any cheap(ish) E36/46's come up that look like they need stripping ;)

its only 2 laps of footage but worth a watch.
this is me driving sam tates white team schirmer e46 m3.
stunning brakes, great turn in and just very well sorted all round.
I loved it

oh, when the owner of a vehicle says " you know the rules....you bend it-you buy it" the driving style and commitment are deffo affected but it was a great opportunity regardless

please enjoy (stick headphones on, turn up the volume and listen to that whining Drexler diff)

Think about what you can do for the club, not what it can do for you...

thanks for properly posting the link Darren

that car is amazing and couldn't be more different from my own m3.
I made the mistake of getting straight into mine after this outing and still regret it. mine felt like rice pudding

just a shame there was nobody taking any pics
