First walshy day yesterday

Post by tenkfeet » Wed May 03, 2006 3:43 pm

Does anybody fancy taking me out for some pax laps at Knockhill then I will break my track day cherry? I found out I was really good at spinning.

(I posted this on Seloc earlier. )

What a totally superb day it was and it far exceeded my expectations . I thought I was an ok driver but how wrong I was. Walshy's instruction was superb and pitched at the level which was correct for me . There were a few moments were I thought Holly f**k I cannot do this but by the end of the day it was starting to come together . It will allow me to get so much more enjoyment from my car and Lous ownership. The long drive back to Glasgow was done with a smile on my face and very red glow from sunburn so thank you Mr Walsh for your instruction and Jago my fellow pupil for his pax rides.


I had booked event tyres to replace my rears so here are some pics of my tyres after Walshy had finished them off .

I did take some video clips which I will post when I figure out how to hoast them .

Shug is jealous he can't do that to the maxi's!

I can't wait though. Did the tyre guy turn up at the end of the day? Might have to arrange a similar effort :D
