Sessions in the morning to get everyone up to speed in their relevant groups (novice, intermediate, advanced) and then subject to no one driving like an idiot, open pit lane in the afternoon.

We're doing a full feature on the day with an added extra which those on the day will probaby notice.

Steve Scott of A1 will also be doing passenger rides in either his Fiesta Cosworth or the WRC Escort for charity throughout the day.

There's also going to be a CD for everyone that books with some action shots of their cars out on track, and some useful stuff in a goodie bag we're giving out too!

PS. Spectators are more than welcome and get in free!

All the info is on www.motorsportvision.co.uk/performanceford

I hope to see you there

Too right!

Just rushing to get the Fiesta suitably prepared to take out, as is Nick in his 'NEW' spec RS Turbo.

Should be a cracking day!

Same here KA is back at ADRENALINE on the 22nd for a month, for work ready for the track day,

weight distribution should be good and handling even better,

Do hope you like it when you see it Dave

there was no real challenge and it was too flat and featureless.

having run off area means that you don't have to be neat and tidy, just wang it in there and come sideways out the other end.

donnington looks much more challenging. i've only driven castle combe and goodwood in this country and they're both excellent. nuerburgring is too challenging to really have fun, and hockenheim is too large like bedford.
