    Good luck with your racing this year its nice to see someone out there in a Volvo on a private budget giving it a go, if the DS3000 don't hack it try the UNO's, I found them better and yes we all know there are better racing pads out there but they are normally double if not more to buy!

    I don't do much on the Volvo forums now except on T5D5 were I sometimes quote now and then lol

    update................

    where to start?

    A weekend at Donington Park
    What a track!! so nice to drive a track I've not been to before.

    arrived about 9:30 Friday morning, straight into driver briefing,20 minutes later, out on track!
    Friday was a trackday, giving me a chance to learn the circuit which proved to be invaluable.
    The weather was a big part this weekend, wet to dry to wet to dry..........

    overall very pleased with Friday, a few 'offs' and many lock ups as I got used to the new pads

    Raceday:

    Woke up to find it raining again

    set up camp at the track and waited for ( pedro to stop fitting go-pros to my car! lol ) qually.......a nervous moment as I had not raced in the wet before, but would Fridays practice pay off???

    Lets hope the Go-Pros worked?
    I know they didn't for the first race, as I forgot to press the magic button
    but my camera, worked for once, so once we have sorted out who has what footage, there should be some vids up soon.


    A massive thanks again to Sam, who so far this weekend has had about 6 hours sleep! I couldn't do it without you mate
    and to Pedro,Jamest5r and Nealevo for coming along not only to watch, but the guys also got their hands dirty too when I needed it most!

    cheers guys, I can't thank you enough

    JT

    Camera angles turned out well! Just need to remember where we put them for next time!

    Shame you need a new windscreen John, would hate to "forget" to put that big yellow number back on the new one...
