    Cool Bruntingthorpe Meet August 06

    Just been looking at Wobbley's track day pics and wondered do we do these or just 1/4 mile runs?

    Was looking to organise one for next year. It is a great track for T-day virgins (tonnes of run off and only cones to hit mostly).

    Sadly the firm we used to book it is "under construction" - http://www.bigthunder.co.uk/ - so I dont know what their calendar is like for next year?

    There are others and after Xmas I will get my organising hat on and get it booked.

    I also have a journey to make to Anglesey - Fancy a bit of twy croft (excuse spelling) and if nothing else - annoy Judge again!!

    Methinks I need another T5 first?!

    Brunters is a great starting ground, not too taxing, nothing much to crash into, no gravel etc. I may even have my wee project up and running by then

    Brunters is the best choice IMHO - not too taxing and easy on the cars (ish).
