The 'Ring in October/November?
Discussion
Having been bitten by the bug last weekend, a few friends and I are thinking about making a return trip later this year. October 1st-3rd would give us 2.5 days on track (with the VLN to watch on September 30th if we're there a bit earlier). Otherwise we're looking at November for full weekends.
What's it normally like this late in the year? Are we going to be guaranteed torrential rain or even snow? Or does it not normally get really bad until later?

Yep, good weather is often to be had this time of year.
Beware of laps early in the day though because shaded areas will be cold and damp until well into the morning.
I will be there on those dates with some of this lot www.justgofaster.com

Yep, 8 on Sunday, only a couple on Monday, but 21 on Tuesday!
May have some photos of you guys as I was there filming on a Driving Adventures trip Monday and Tuesday.
If you can let me know more about what cars you had, I'll have a look to see if I captured you.

While Graham was happy snapping I was filming from various parts of the circuit and caught LOTS of cars in loony mode - was that you? We'll put some coverage on the Driving Adventures site (see link above) in the not too distant future. If you want to see the footage when it's released feel free to register on the site as an email will go out to let everyone on the database know it's up.

21 in a day!!!! What sort of state was the car in after that?
Well, only 18 of them were in the Mazda. But it was fine. The only problem I had all weekend was a bit of overheating coming off after my first lap when in traffic which I traced to a broken rad fan thermoswitch so I just left the aircon switched on all weekend as this switches both rad fans on.Gassing Station | Track Days | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
