Just booked this up.

I will be sharing my Skoda with my son. If we are unlucky, my daughter will attend as well. Heaven help my poor car!

It’ll be the second time I have done Thruxton. Really enjoyed it last year on a nice dry day. I will be prepared for rain this time and will have a set of decent set of road tyres ready in case of wet weather. Don’t want another case of last Tuesday evening at Brands when it rained all the time.

Weather looks okay.

Number one son now swapped with number three son. Daughter can’t find her driving license, bloody useless! smile

Hopefully the car will hold out!…..

Well that's always one of the risks, I'll have a few tools with me.

What a lovely day. Nice to spend it with two of my offspring!

My poor Skoda did well over 200 miles on track.

Number three son wasn’t too bad when shown what to do, daughter was honestly frightening! She wasn’t in anyone’s way, but as a passenger instructing, I felt really vulnerable!

Good to meet a few faces. Will debrief the poor car tomorrow but I think all is well apart from a couple of millimetres of tyre wear!

I think I have a clip of my daughter Driving and will download that tomorrow. I’m sure it will show you guys just how good you are. wink

I was looking forward to coming across you on track, but sadly that never happened.
