Sarnie for me :whistle:

[PeterDF]

Peter...mine is CSL as well above.

Also Portimao and Ascari def next year.

What about Imola?

That sounds nice already!

Imola is on our bucketlist, together with the Slovakia Ring, but that will be 2015 or 2016. Ascari, Portimao, Bilster Berg, Zandvoort, Spa-Francorchamps and the Nürburgring Nordschleife are on our list every year as well as Assen and Zolder.

The tech support can change tires which are on rims, but not put new tires on the rims for you.

Other changes that were emailed to me will be processed this afternoon!

my bucket list is def Portimao one year and Imola the next!. :supz:

[PeterDF]

I'll open a topic about some awesome events we have later this week.
Is that allowed or should I ask a moderator for permission first? And if so, whom should I ask?

BTW, I'll be in the UK on Thursday and Friday; quick dash over to Brands Hatch to visit some friends and a couple of people who we sponsor who are racing there this weekend.
Anyone from here who might be at the track by any chance?

Hi Pete

Nice to meet you mate, MarkCSL is the best person on here to discuss the DF events etc with, not sure where I am Thursday but if local will drop by :beer:

shimmy, 2015 needs to be the Italian trip, Monza, Imola, Mugello

Enough said !

[PeterDF]

Monza is an awesome track to enjoy the energy of the Tifosi, but please don't hate me, it is so incredibly boring to drive...
Basically, you have a slow chicane, a fast chicane (which is nice), two fast right handers (that are ok, but not especially spectacular) and the Parabolica, which has an interesting braking zone, but other than that not very spectacular either.

As far as driving thrills are concerned, skip the history of the tracks and drive either Bilster Berg or Ascari.

i agree, great track to say you've driven but not a great track to drive. Did it in 2008, five big straights, perfect for GT2 and anything over 600bhp

[AlexGTT]

Love Mugello and Imola is not far from it, so I would really like a proper Alpine drive down and back with those TD's. Monza not so fussed for reasons stated.

Weather on the day

To all you TD veterans

If weather is shite on the day (Assen/Spa) what's the rules on TD fees

Do you pay regardless of driving conditions?

Any advice on this?

The fee's are what they are .. If it's wet it's more concentration needed
