Well, make sure it is full with petrol, make sure the oil is at least 3 bars, but not above,and just turn up. Check the tyre pressures and condition of the tyres. But then make sure you check them again when they are hot at the track. Talk to Allan about best pressures etc.

Apart from that, the cars are good to go.

1 piece of advice: try and get it into your head now to NOT turn the engine off as soon as you get back into the paddock. Let the engine idle for a coupe of minutes before you shut down. I actually just leave it running between sessions to keep everything warm and let the oil run out of the places it is not supposed to be.

OK, so are we going to close this thing out as Saturday 5th Track Day at Bedford and Sunday 6th To Be Confirmed?

Does that look good to everyone?

Has anybody booked with MSV yet?

Not yet, I assume we have to book individually, and not as a group?

Anything I should be aware of before I book online, other than the fact I will also order a helmet and an instructor for the day - price is £199 basic for - Bedford Autodrome Open Pit Lane Track Day - 5th April
