Is anyone on here going to Bedford on 29th April...
Discussion
a bit of confusion in this thread I think! The day at Bedford Autodrome is with us (www.bookatrack.com) on the 29th April.

thanks for that. co.uk though
Which track layout is being used?
Very tempted to book this.
I'm booked on the 29th April in my porker. I've just come back from there actually with Easytrack and it was so good I had to book again. It's a huge circuit and one where you can have 50 cars on track and not feel crowded! I need to book some new tyres for after the event as I lost about 2 mil from the rears and they will be shot after one more day. I'm also probably going to upgrade my pads as there are a few good straights and my brakes got pretty hot.
Can't wait.
Can't wait.

Yes, i'll be there in my E36 M3 Evo. Having the brakes uprated next week!
First visit to Bedford and looking forward to it.
Anyone staying up there the Friday night or can recoomend a B&B?
This'll be my first car track day ever and the brakes are my only worry on my E36. What are you upgrading to?

with only one day to go there are 3 things you could do to help your braking.
1) Bleed them completely and put some high temp brake fluid in eg ATE Blue.
2) I have a heavy track car similar to the M3 in weight, cheapest high performance pads for the front are probably EBC Yellows -- once they are conditioned to the disc they are very good indeed IMO.
3) Finally, if you are 'sympathetic' to your brakes then you will just be fine -- however, thrash the life out of them for +15 minutes ignoring 1 & 2 above, then be prepared for brake fade -- once experienced never forgotten!!!
