I might fire down to the one in August to watch, can't make April.

The more the merrier folks so as Scud says, get your names down and once confirmed numbers are in I'll email the organisers to let them know!

Hi Martyn,

That would be good if you could? iam not 100% sure about August myself yet but it should be ok? Hopetoun House will be that Month as well? and iam keen to get to it this year as i never made it the year before,we'll see,

Sorry to have to ask but have you contacted the organisers yet? as iam keen to find out if iam still able to attend with my son with numbers being so low?

Cheers Scuderia

 

[M21MFS]

We're invited along, so I'm sure if anyone wants to go they will be more than welcome.

I haven't gotten back with numbers yet, but I can make enquiries? I take it this is for August?

 

[mrcinquecento]

im not taking the sol to this for on track action, havent got the bits here in time to get everything fitted so it's a no from me, at least for the track.

would have loved to have gave the cinq a thrash on it actually, but that's not near able yet either shame, it would have been like large scale Karting

Hi Martyn,

Iam still going to this weeks Track Evening if its still on? iam only asking because of our numbers being so low i though we might need more before we could attend?if thats not the case?thank god for that as Ive been looking forward to it for Months now,

Iam still not 100% sure about August yet?,we'll see? but iam sure i will,

Edit: p.s I have already emailed Jackie weeks ago to let them know I'd be attending.

Cheers Don

 

[M21MFS]

If you've done that mate then thats fine! We can sort August nearer thr time for anyone who can make it!

That's great Pal,

I will post up some pic's and video footage of the evenings event as soon as i return,

Cheers Scuderia

 

[M21MFS]

Just a reminder for anyone going on Friday, you need to take your driving license with you! Also a helmet, although these can be borrowed from Knockhill!

 

[Scuderia]

Roger that.............

Iam not sure iam going to be back online after today as iam busy with work, so those who are going i'll see you there...I Can't Wait,

Another important part to add is the safety briefing, it starts at 5pm so you need to be there a little before so you can get booked in and pay then sign your life away before getting on track,

Cheers Don

 

[bad_boy_cinq]

Kool you can borrow a driveing licence .. Steve you might be able to have a real one insted of your christmass cracker one

 

[Andi9386]

Have fun peeps, just dissapointed I can't make either date *sigh*

 

[Scuderia]

:helmet: iam just about to leave,,

All the best Don

Hi,

Just a quick update to let you all know it turned out to be a great night at Knockhill,there was only the 3 of us from Fiat Scotnald? myself Gengis and Marc?which i didn't know was there till near the end of the night,

Ive got lots of video footage and pics, so as soon as i have the time? later tonight? or tomorrow i will get them uploaded and post them in here as well as my little project thread,

If there are any of you wondering if its worth going to the next evening? i would strongly suggest you do??its a great day or night out,

Gengis????? have you made it home yet?? his brakes failed lmfao,

I would just like to say Thanks to the Alfa Owners Club and Jackie for there hospitality... great bunch of guys and girls,

Cheers Scuderia

 

[gengis]

Yep.. made it home, hardly touched the brakes.

I had a visual inspection on the outboard pads prior to the trashing round the track, and looked as if there were stacks or feroda left. After about 5 ten lap sessions, I was being followed by a guy in a Marea 155, and when we pulled in he announced that there were sparks flying from both wheels at every braking point...cool.

The inboard pads must have been more worn!.. thought I saw the red brake indication on the dash, thought it was the handbrake micro switch playing up! I'll get abetter look tomorrow.

There was a bod from power images taking photies at various points round the track, I hope he caught the sparks a flying.

All good clean fun for kids!
