Default Bedford Autodrome/Autocar Porsche Experience day for sale this weds, 25/8

Due to an unforeseen occurance, I have a place for sale on the Bedford Autodrome Porsche experience trackday taking place this wednesday. This sold out long ago, so if you wanted to go but couldn't get a place, now's your chance. Any sensible offer considered.

It's a half day event, briefing at 3pm, open pit lane, you can drive any of the cars that Porsche bring along as well as your own car.

Day ends at 9pm with a BBQ with the Autocar and Bedford team.

07818 058988 if interested. Cheers

more info here:

Mods I'd appreciate it if you could leave this here due to the short time until the event.

Excellent.

Passenger Laps please

I missed you guys at Bruntingthorpe, I ended up with a buckled wheel, geometry chucked out, and brakes glowing orange, quite a costly day for me won't be going there again.

It was either done on the familerisation laps or as I drove into Brunters, as after that I remember a massive vibration through out the car. Hence why I left early, did as much as I could cope with the vibration knackered my arms in. The wheel has been squared off, massive damage, how the hell I didnt know is beyond me, it must have been at low speed.

No-one else driven the car? Perhaps it's a prob with those type of wheels being weak? Could you see any impact damage when it was taken off? Bummer whatever

See ya monday
