MrsCC and I are booked up to go to Brands for the 11th December so that we can finish the year off by testing her 2.4 VIS. The car ran really well at Spa but since then its been remapped and played with a little more so the Indy circuit should be great fun if the brakes hold this time... well unless its snowing that is of course I've also convinced my Brother and my new spanner man Dan to come along for some fun, Dan's is a pretty much standard MkII MR2 turbo running about 220bhp so I'm looking forward to having a go in this twitchy rwd If anyone else fancies coming along to watch they'll be hot soup and fresh bread on the day, we've reserved a pit garage to try and keep out of the December weather but there should be plenty of people to chat to along with passenger rides so bring a crash helmet if you've got one. If you fancy booking it yourself the link is below, it's £110.00 for the day so as long as the weather holds it should be a giggle. Brands Hatch 11th dec. 1. CC & Jake 2. MrsCC 3. Knight7660 + Mrs. 4. 5.

I am bang up for this one (don't live far from Brands, and really like the circuit) - have confirmed it's open pit lane too (wasn't clear on their site)

Hovedan and I were talking about this day in the previous thread. I'm 99% certain to be a yes, just waiting to get paid on Friday. Yep we have been talking about this one. Looks like a goer for me too, 20vt needs a bit of tlc or else I could give Custard a run out. Will confirm either way this weekend...

I've been watching Dan's thread on MR2OC about our Brands meet and I'd like to think that after the day the Mr2 boys will be re-think their attitude about Coupes once we've shown them our tail lights. At the mopment they're bantering about us blowing head gaskets and burnt wiring looms ( Yes Reuben I know it's true in your case ) but again it goes to show that the general petrolhead just doesn't know how good the Fiat coupe can be on and off track. Looking forward to teaching these Rice burners a lesson

It's not just the cold ... it's the noise (engine/ induction/ aeroscreen), harsh ride (track tuned!) and relative vehicle size (compared to Polish lorry wheels on the M6)!

just wear the right stuff and you wont be cold at all. with some of the cold weather stuff ive got you'd be sweating all the way there I've driven 120 miles at -12c in my Indy with no windscreen. You can keep yourself warm, but the only thing that you can't protect against is your feet. In kit cars you can't wear thick bike boots, so you just have to rely on x pairs of socks. It gets very cold The MR2s won't know what's hit them No disrespect to them, but in my experience on track, they are an average car in terms of outright speed.

Very tempted, although I wonder if you get any kind of refund if it IS snowing? Can't find anything about it on the site? Mart - if it snows, rains, typhoons or tsunamis, and the day is cancelled, you'll be able to transfer the trackday over to another event free of charge, and probably get a discount on booking any others. If the day is partially lost to bad weather, i.e a late start, they are not obliged to give any credit towards any other day. That's usually how it works (and has for me in the past with Easytrack). Let's see what Joe confirms when he talks to them tomorrow

That's a shame, still pretty good price for Brands, especially with the FCCUK discount. Well, good and bad news for me. I won't be driving at Brands sadly , the reason being is I'm enrolling in an instructor course. I have been waiting for a couple of years to even find a circuit running a course so I have to go for it, and £400 before Christmas will stretch the budget. I'm disapointed as I've told so many people about this day and had various friends and colleagues coming along. Sorry

Maybe in the future, I need to get a feel for it first, maybe a passenger ride would be a good start if anybody can.... I also have a spare set of plus alloys that one day I could get some track rubber for instead of my heavy 18" Azevs. But I haven't got a helmet either.

Maybe in the future, I need to get a feel for it first, maybe a passenger ride would be a good start if anybody can.... I also have a spare set of plus alloys that one day I could get some track rubber for instead of my heavy 18" Azevs. But I haven't got a helmet either. Let those horses loose man!

Very good day with pretty much the coupes dominating everything bar the Ginetta, btcc seat cupra and a fully track prepped Renault Clio this was many due to slippery track condition at the start. So a big thanks to mr CC and mrs CC for the track time in the coupes and the free fuel It was also good to see some new faces and reconise so old ones aswell. Pictures to follow

I'll second how cold it was!
I think that was my first time seeing Coupes on track. They were flying and made me regret never having taken one my previous ones out.
Loved the sound of the AC Cobra replica, so went and chatted to the owner....it has a 8.1 litre engine! He saved for 4 years to get the 35k it cost, then built it himself.
Also found the owner of the red stripped out 306 Rally. He was overtaking most things in the session I watched. Had a look round his car with him, completely stripped out, engine work and running touring car tyres and trick custom suspension.

The 306 wasn't that fast but the driving skill and the knowledge of his set up was very high. I had some good tussles with him in mrs CC 2.4 vis along with the grey Evo I was chasing at the same time mrs CC managed to a passenger ride in But the session of the day has got to be driving mr CC's plus and chasing the full track spec Clio and not doing to bad if I do say so myself

Just got back and I'm now enjoying an Ale in my local, many thanks to all who attended, it was cold, wet but loads of fun. Highlights for me were: 4 wheel drifting around Paddock bill bend, several times Chasing down and beating most of the RWD cars, including the MR2's Pushing the 2.4 with the carbotech pads and still having shorter braking distances if my bottle had allowed with it being so wet. Spinning Dan's MR2 and being told his car was then banned for the rest of the afternoon session, sorry mate hope you enjoyed the stint driving my Plus But the best has to go to my wonderful wife, not only did she dump her 2.4 in the kitty litter, but she did this backwards after loosing it at the top of Paddock hill bend and spun it twice in fine style before coming to rest arse deep in gravel, the marshals were so impressed they took her driver wrist band off her but gave it back after lunch and hour later. Well done It was an excellent day

Excellent, looking forward to seeing those Any other coops on track other than the Knight clan? There was a chap there with a standard Red 20vt that was trailered in for the day, he didn't tell me his name but he's not on any of the forums and just uses the Coupe as a toy even though it's road legal, he was doing really well no no major mishaps.
