Pembrey Trackday (21.06.14) - Anyone coming?
Discussion
Had a good day! Lots of red flags though (especially in the morning).
Lots of people coming off at the Honda Curve. I thought they might have taken the hint after the 2nd spin there! Lots of potential to go wrong there if you enter too fast...
Ended up taking the whole Dibeni/Esses section in 4th (with a lift at Dibeni and a touch of brake at Esses) by the end of the day. Brand new tyres not looking so good around the edges anymore - big improvement from my last time there.

Who else went off apart from the blue golf that was parked next to me in the paddock?Lots of people coming off at the Honda Curve. I thought they might have taken the hint after the 2nd spin there! Lots of potential to go wrong there if you enter too fast...

I was enjoying the day til my power steering pump failed
Saw a couple of cars towed back (A white coupe - can't remember what, the blue golf). Another car hit the tyre wall after Dibeni (backwards!), but I think he got away without any damange - that might have been the RX7. Most times the red flat went up the ambulance ended up being parked over at the Honda curve along with the tow truck. I think most cars got away without damage, but I guess the corner caught a few people out.
