Lotus Elan Central

I have just booked a trackday on the Bedford Autodrome GT circuit, open pit lane £149 and extra passengers and drivers are free.
If anyone is interested it is with www.trackdays.co.uk

Bedford is a long way for me, but i`ve done it before with a few other LEC`ers nice safe circuit. Have a good one on the 28th

I did it last month,
I'm doing some suspension mods at the moment and am looking for a comparison.

sure will enjoy it!

extremely tempted to do this one especially as the outside edges of my n/s tyres are shagged. Bedford would be a good opportunity to shag the o/s

I've done Goodwood and Castle combe in the last few days and Castle combe is far more aggresive wrt tyres

I would book it as there isn't many places left.

I have booked just waiting for the confirmation email. Tony how do you know how many places are left?

Glad to hear that Chris.
Are you taking the Elan?

Just a guess

The confirmation will come from circuit days and you can see who is booked in,but for some reason i am not on thier list so there must be more going than listed.

no I'll have the VX.

Is it worth confirming with Circuit Days that you are actually booked in?

Dee and I will be going up on the Sunday and staying close by as I don't fancy getting up to early.

I've got the confermation email from circuit days so all should be ok.

Don't blame you for staying local.

See you on the 28th.

Tony

Got the confirmation now. Tony, what are the chances of you getting your suspension modded before the 28th? If you manage to get it done I would like to follow you for a few laps (may have the bullet cam fitted) to see how your car handles. The good thing about Bedford is there are all sorts of corners to show the suspension travel so should be an interesting exercise

Hi Chris,
everything is done apart from the rear springs and dampers.
I have got the dampers but am hoping the springs will be here by next Friday.
I was told today there is a 65% chance i will have them.
If they don't turn up i will just fit the dampers which has got to be better than the 15 year old ones on there now.

Cheers Tony

I was told today that i should have my springs by the middle of next week.
