Nah got complicated!

I missed the producer date! Thought I had 7 days after the date of the offence, but no its 7 days including! So they took me to Court and I got 4 points and £130 fine. Very hard lesson!
But copper said he was being very lenient coz his first reading was 109mph! But I slowed as soon as I saw him and went below 100!

Was about 5 or 6 years ago now and they dont have patrols on the M5 anymore.

i still have a couple of g-tech meters, they can measure the g-force under cornering.

just drive round in a circle and see what  the gforce is when each car loses grip.

That would work.

Then take the cars on the track and watch the mk2 fly  :grin:

javelin trackdays are about safety aswell as fun, no timing is allowed , and you are only allowed to overtake powering out of the bends or under power on the straights... so basically you can get close as you dare behind, then nail em out of the bend if you have the power to do so.. if not sit behind and wait till next time...

this is the track it will be on, a cracking tight circuit..... will seperate the men from the boys...



it will be the full circuit also.. more details after xmas and we'll get a load of us on this... will be fun..

are we talking 405 len??, if so, go out buy a cheap 205, then come n see me with some money, first car i ever did was a 205 mi-16, absoloutly rapido, no golf would touch it round cadwell, or anywhere else for that matter, that did embarrass a lot of cars....
