Speed Season 2006

[simontaylor]

I might be going again .......... Sat 28th October.

At the minute its Harewood......I would like to go and do others but the Isle of Man and my usual season are about as much as I can afford/take time off for.

I like Lydd, good drifting circuit...

Do you like Lydden as well (they aren't the same).

Doh, no, I thought thats what he meant..

Where is Lydden then?

[simontaylor]

Lydden is on the A2, 10 miles south of Canterbury or 5 miles north of Dover.
Some corners are suitable for drifting, but others could be a bit scarry.

Ah, I see...

This is Lydd, the one I was thinking of..

[simontaylor]

That looks far too spectacular to be the Lydd, near Dungeness.
Maybe it is ......

looks good for a track day ?
if your car is a kart!

Its not too bad, just not much room for overtaking, but far better than Curborough for instance...

Here's a vid from April at the drift practice session..

Of the 19 events, best 10 counting, I competed in 6 and finished 3rd in class and 15th overall out of 52.

Whose going to join me next year?

Well done Simon

Peter Ellens did very well

Does that make you our most successful GTA driver this year

No I was 3rd as well...but I notched up 4 wins (out of the 5 events I did.....the 5th was where my clutch wasnt working).
Still good going Simon.....showdown time on the Isle of Man in April....No fear!!
