Donington Park Noisy Day : Tue 21st October

It’s going to be lovely!

Yeah, at 3pm. :frowning:

Or perhaps not at all. :frowning: :frowning:

Hmm, should I try and fit the 39s? I suspect newer soft 888s aren’t too far off and I don’t recall Donny having much standing water.

Even about 10 dyno sessions have not made any effect on my old 39’s …

No you’re right no standing water, its more like a river down Craners’ :unamused:

The plan : Pick up the car first thing, spend the morning hooning about, deal with my professional commitments then blast up to the hotel tonight in convoy with Tim.

The reality : Problems getting the car ready, infant throwing up since 5am, work issues, family-bus broken gotta somehow pick that up today and its gonna piss down tomorrow.

:frowning:

But we’ll be together :smiley:

As in they’ve not come back to life/worn down/got stickier and hence you don’t think they’d be great in the rain (so keep for airfield days)?

Um, from where?

The plan :smiley: , meet Sean, drink beer, sleep with Sean (if he calls out John, I’ll hope he means Shorrocks), wake up, grab coat, get very wet, try to go sideways, eat curry, go to bed without Sean.

So have been under the car, fixed a few niggles.

Doing the stay at home daddy bit today, then subcontracting that to Burton Snr to head over to Ben’s work.

In theory.

Exactly … Pirelli P-Zero would be better :wink:

Well the caterhams will get some use then:

The weather will be fine!!

I don’t have a car :frowning:

Anyone wanna share a BatCat?

Good job it’s a noisy day, the cars won’t be heard above the sound of all your sobbing fellas :laughing:

Do BAT rent canoes? :wink:

Have a good one guys

Going to make a point of enjoying it regardless. Looks like a few showers that might blow through on the breeze.
Just getting out of work so won’t get up there till nearer midnight. Enjoy the beers and I’ll see you in the morning. Probably sheltering in the caff with a strong tea and a bacon roll.

It can’t be as bad as when we were there a couple of months ago & the track day was suspended for half an hour because of the rain.

I do recall being the first one out when it re started & aquaplaning out of Craners…

We’ll have some fun!

Gutted for you Ben.

By the way, don’t do it. Don’t even think about doing it.
