For all dithering and thinking about getting on track.......
Just foooking do it!!!! 
Even though my pants are still brown (apart from one session I did while it was dry) from driving at a wet Dono for 2 sessions, this has to be one of the best laughs I have had in a long while.
The 4th time on track and the 1st in 3yrs..... I certanly aint no Ayton Senna
but it was a real good afternoon.
I only thing I felt uneasy about was having cars coming right behind me, making you feel as if you have to push yourself, but you soon get used to that and you just pull over and let them pass.
Had a couple of moments in the wet, which is more than I can say for my mate who did a 360 at craner and lost it coming out of the S to the pit straight!
The only bit of advice I can give is not to drive RWD in the wet on your first track outing!!!
Going to book for a full day on 28th now!

THE best feeling on track with the car.
All you track virgins 'get your car on'.
Tiff, that means you aswell.
You don't have to pust it too hard,don't let anyone bully you into going faster than you want,just pull over and let them pass.
Go on! get it on!
You WILL want to do it again too.

Marco,
Conditions were far from ideal, only having 1 session dry(er) out of the 3.... all the same was a good laugh, but look forward to dry conditions next time as the confidence levels during the dry(er) session was increased 10 fold!
You'll have to get your car sorted and on track.... you can show me the classic "Marco Race Lines" lol The only lines I had were the brown ones in my pants.
