Any good Strada.

Passionford thrash/track shootout?

Rod-Tarry

The Shead Man had FTD driving Kev Atkins Time Attack winning Evo sometime back. Kev was not a happy bunny .

strada84

It's a very basic airfield track, but it's designed to give cars a good workout to show what they can do power and handling wise, so yeah it's nice to drive.

Conditions were appalling when I drove it though, thick fog, which happens quite a lot there. Was good when it started to lift, but conditions still weren't great.

I remember reading about the Rod, in the short lived mag Jtuner, they had a shootout there with the MLR if I remember correctly? Pretty sure Simon Norris was there with the bogie but it blew its diff or something.

Ł175

Think I'll stick to ford fair track time

sridgett

Thats sounds cool but cant as live in fooking france

Rod-Tarry

Sounds about right.

Mark Shead

I won the event outright and beat the owner in his own car by 1.8seconds and he came second.

Mark

Nice going! Bet the owner was well pleased to be beaten in his own car.

I bet Steve Davis could beat me at snooker using my cue so it's the same difference really

The Underdog

2 laps what a joke. its a boring layout other than the fact its used on top gear. you get training on forza 5 first. iv drove it a thousand times on xbox in my own house why would i drive up there to do what i can in my own house.

for 175 id want half a day in it with a full on pit crew at my beck and call changing tyres and bleeding brakes and feeding me grapes and telling me im awesome.

na il do a track day i think instead.

Utter ripoff prices to drive what is actually a really uninteresting track just cause its been on the tellybox.

No thanks!

Rod-Tarry

But Kev had won TA in that car just shows how hard Mark can pedal a car.

Chip

iTrader: (3)

Yeah but this is more like you bearing steve davis with his own cue, Kev had just won time attack in that car so was exactly bad at driving it, lol

...in a shit car that will have been thrashed to death.

gjh

Are you not aloud to use your own car? (never read the details)

Mark Shead

And I had never driven his car before
It is quite a hard track to learn and I believe I had another 3seconds in it as I set my best lap on lap 4 having never driven that track and that car.
I would love to drive it again in one of my latest spec cars.

Mark

iTrader: (3)

so have you neever thoguth about using a motor you normaly drive to entre time attack yourself and then potentially win mark?

Mark Shead

I am just missing the 100k to compete and poss win but I would love to drive someone's car and see how I compare against the other drivers

Mark

CrOwSoN15

So, pricing aside, because you've done the track a few times on a console makes you the Stig does it? Pack it in

Rod-Tarry

Boring : Mark was the only driver to be 100% on the throttle on one of the corners they checked there data logs even Kev could not do it however many times he tried it. Thats called ability you cant learn it on an x-box its born in you. Im sure you would beat Mark on your x-box though .

i'm sure someone will sponsor you although it may have been the reason cars get sticker bombed and have shopping lists on their doors
