Yes this year I will make sure I am in fast group as you won't be able to change group once there like I thought you would.The problem last year was the way NL had the groups -inters -fast-fast ACU so there was a lot who booked in fast which really was inters .This year is the normal 3 groups. Let us know J when you want to book plus hopefully a few others will be up for it.
You will love it Mark on and off the bikes and it certainly shortens the winter break off the bikes going away in November and it will be a birthday you will never forget but like uk trackdays Europeons ones are addictive as well .
I'll be 26 on the day we come back!! Will speak to the rents and see what we can sort out. That's if I make it to the end of the trip with me and you battling it out all weekend!
Jase do you remember what sort of times I was doing? Do you reckon I should go in inters if they are doing normal groups? I was getting held up a bit last time.
Fast mate I was told anything under 2 mins you should be in fast group I had an instructor behind me who reckoned I was doing about 1.56min James timed me at 2 mins but reckon I was going faster after James only timed me the once think it was on the second day in the morning. Mark get yourself in fast mate after a season of racing then going there you will be flying ,I thought it was an easy track to learn and after the first day was happy where I was going as your on track for 3 days with little chance of moving group like I did you will regret it so get yourself booked in the right group. I didn't even get the chance to have a lap with Scooby so hopefully he goes this year and we can have a blast .
It surprises me that NL's don't use a transponder on their euro trips. theres nothing to it to regroup every evening to get the groups right. A lot safer and people with feel and rider better being in the correct group. All it takes is 3 pieces of paper and 5 mins of work
Thats not too bad then, ill have a go in the inters. It was hard to spot you, especially when you were in a group. Plus with my glasses I had no idea where the start/finish line was lol I think ill leave the hire car booking to someone else. What was it? Some tiny fiat thing! and tyke, just book it! They are very addictive!
If there is a few going we can get a decent car /van and split it at least we won't need ear plugs hey James as that fiat got very loud when we tried to go fast in it.
I agree skippy I know focussed events do it but don't think NL will as it keeps going back to the same point it's a trackday and not a race and people should book the correct group for there pace. Where as I am in favour of transponders I can also see the problems that could come with it people pushing themselves past there limit just so they can hold there head up high in the bar at night as I can imagine it's embarrassing if you get moved down a group. As I have never been with FE I can't really comment but would be interested if there are more crashes with people using transponder run trackdays.
That was a long drive back to the airport! I would never of took the keys if id known we would need the earplugs! Also wearing a helmet should be made compulsory for that car. I thought it was going to flip on some of them roundabouts
