Snetterton is a pretty good track for viewing in places. Not driven the circuit myself yet, but have been as a passenger, and it's hugely fast! I think the facilities are improved since they updated the entrance etc........ Mike R will know more though.

Not done Oulton so wouldn't know about that....

Why, what you thinking?

Track it Max

I came away from Saturday with the stupidest grin plastered all over my face. You will learn more about your car on track in a day than you will on the road in a year

Sorry mate but if it was a valid question you could have worded it a lot better than that as to me it reads like you're taking a direct pop at Clare.

TBH mate I don't know or want to know what went wrong with you two. End of the day it's none of my business, but you should both keep any issues off the board and resolve them in private.
