Briskoda How Fast 2015 Bedford 02/05/2015

Do you have to provide your own helmet then, or do they have any you can borrow?

 

 

They have some to hire for about £10 I think, I just prefer to have my own, and it pays for itself in next to no time because when you've been once you're bound to want more

  • Some photos from today.   Not many action shots as Bedford does have any public trackside access and my camera isn't really up to modern day standards.   All shots therefore from pit lane, most ar

  • Unlikely, I'm quite slow apparently. I just do well because I have a flash car.

Ah bugger

 

Why did I think the event finished at 12 noon.

That's going to make my mission to Stockport after rather interesting!

 

Another drive against the clock :D

 

email confirmation, now a few pounds lighter :clap:

I will have a spare open face helmet with me if anybody needs to borrow one.

I will likely have a spare place on this event.  Looks like my car might be burning oil, not diesel.....  :(

Bang goes my main competition then ;)

I've got The Carpenters Greatest Hits downloaded onto my SD card so that I can drive around to some appropriate music

It's official - I'm out!  :(

 

 

Anybody want my spot?  I can't get a refund at this stage, so my spot is up for grabs.  As for the £££ to be honest, that is not a concern at this stage.  I just wouldn't want my spot wasted.

Ah no Jase :(

I am giving the car to my mate Thursday morning and will have his Mini Cooper S to run around in for a few days. :D

 

But I am gutted at this stage to be out of this. Plan now is to ensure the car is good for the National trackday on 21st June.  I am likely to miss the Santa Pod day too.

damn. sorry to hear that Jase :(

I am planning on going to another HowFast? later in the year, with the brakes sorted hopefully and my friend in Nissan GT-R. We could hook up for it if you want?

 

When you do, can you put the details on the forum please in case any others want to come. :)

If it's an official Briskoda How Fast I might consider it, but not if it's a general free for all......we all saw the nutters on BossFox's open session at Combe

Damm, I had that sinking feeling when I watched Dave's cam footage that perhaps not all is well with your motor but I kept my mouth shut as many people consider this kind of comments from me as "hate" or negative and the like.

 

I am very sorry to hear that the venerated Mongrel is not well and needs some attention. Hopefully nothing too serious and easily fixable  and it will be in a fighting form for the June's National Meet :thumbup:

 

:ph34r: Can you take the Mini to HowFast? by any chance? :evil: :bandit:

 

EDIT: I do not want to spook it but due to my family circumstances it is possible that I will not be able to attend either. This is something I have zero influence over and If needed I will have to go at a drop of a hat.

That's Combe.

 

MSV don't allow any of that.

Do people from the South East want to go up in convoy?

 

If so I'd suggest...

 

Get to Thurrock Services on the M25 and leave at 8am.

Pass M25 J28 (A12, Brentwood) at 8:10am.

Pass M25 J25 (A10, North London) at 8:30am.

Turn off at M25 J23 and head up the A1M (To avoid Bedford) at 8:40am.

 

If we get seperated we can meet up at South Mimms services at J23 before heading off up the A1M.

 

It's 51 miles from South Mimms to Bedford Autodrome and we'll have over an hour to get there.

Hopefully you all had payment taken over the last two days by MSV as they have processed them.

Just seen this and that someone has dropped out, is this space still available? I'd send you some funds, was looking to do something on Saturday. Not got a Skoda but all the same. Let me know :)

Joined today especially? :)

Only joking.....what car do you have, just out of interest?

Jason's place may have been taken up on the Facebook page, but there are still three open places at £89, which is a bargain anyway

Yes I did actually, was googling trackdays 2nd May and this popped up :)

 

Focus ST running 360bhp.

 

Unsure if I'll do this "how fast" thing or the full trackday on the other circuit! Only other option is llandow which looks a bit boring.

My spot is still available

Facebook lead has gone quiet.

Shoot me a text 07929 65O555 or email jonathan(at)worsdale.co.uk

Mountune have a session on the same day at Bedford, a bit later on.

Just for info. :)

Not sure if they have space though.

You'd need to check on the Focus STOC forum.

Just bear in mind you drive like a Briskoda member, not a Focus ST driver ;)

You can always do a bit of coaching. :)
