my first track day, of course i was taking it easy in the slow group, i picked the pace up a bit towards the end but was working on cornering and not all out speed (ask pete if u dont believe me) i had intended to go all out the last session, but it was cancelled due to an off earlier in the day stopping everything for an hour. Hence i didnt have the opportunity to put in a "fast lap" and get timed by someone.

will see how i go though on the 16th.
