Home safely after a great day out at Bedford autodrome.

poor car took a hammering today, tyres are a bit blistered, brakes are shagged and need replacing and ive got grass everywhere after an off track moment plus i lost a centre cap somewhere in all of that

videod the whole day on my new go pro so here is me sliding around in the grass

You'll be clearing that grass out for years!!

Got to try Bedford at some stage.

its fantastic Nick, every corner has run off areas so you can push the car right to the wire knowing theres no solid barrier nearby to ruin it if you go off

Looks great fun,will go on track one day I hope

Full timed lap session here

Looks good Liam

you're not the only one who has had an off track moment this week Liam.

I had one on Sunday at the ring...on board video to follow

What's it like doing the how fast? Always wondered

Looking good mate

You need to slow down

It was great Gary, just needed to not worry about the car as much as i was, fastest lap times were when i was caning the gear box

Oh shusssshhhh you

I really think we should try and all go at some point ie open track day

sounds good are they quite understanding if your new to track days?

Just left us to it Gary, there was a focus rs running around in last most of the day cause he was just enjoying himself and not going for it. Even when I spun off i didnt get rubbish from the course staff, just came in, cleaned her up and went at it again

It's more relaxed than a 'proper' trackday Gary

Theyre actively encouraging you to go as fast as possible so they dont say much when it goes wrong

Cool i like the sound of that . Any ideas when the next one is?

nice sounds

Not sure Gary, wait for them to announce im agraid. didnt know we was giving each other kisses

Lol whoops bluming predictive text lol. I'll edit that one lol

love the way when you went off, your just calmly looking about till you stop!

How about a forum how fast day instead of a full track day

i was watching all the grass out the window, was like i was running over it with a lawnmower

Great idea Lee!

replace grass with gravel and that was me at the ring on sunday

Oh dear Stevie.......

1,42

The mk6 ST pulling off a 1.37, is that the mr220?

2nd there a 2013 Fiesta 1600, is that an ST?

yeh it must be

nice time Liam, it was a little damp i understand although they have said dry

Ye the fiesta in second is an st with mp215 brake upgrade and lowered but can't remember what on

It was raining during the practice but had begun to dry for the timed session so not really dry or wet. Wish it had been drier in practice as i was still finding time during my fast laps which i should have had earlier in the day really enjoyed it tho and now im familiar with the corcuit i should be able to do better next time
