    right

    i've got a date of 15th May 2004 (Saturday) for a driver training day and I need to guage interest so if you want virtually one to one instruction in lift off and power oversteer, controlling understeer, cadence and left foot braking, sprint course, high speed handling/lane changing etc etc all in a safe environment then post your interest here.

    I've been to three of these and they really are a fantastic way to find the limits of your car and what happens when you go beyond it!, their aim by the end of the day is that you know what to do when it happens and you are always in control.

    Cost will be around £120, I would like to make it a Ferrari exclusive day so we need about 25 people so let's hear from you!

    I'm up for this. Only just sunk in that it's a Saturday so shouldn't be a problem. It's in the diary.

    P.S.

    That doesn't overlap with the FA Cup Final? Will they have a video recorder?

    Oh, you mean like last time we met in the final - it was the 'blue end' that was worth watching as the ball entered the net 4 times.

    I understand now!

    Mark,

    As I suspected might happen, the missus had covertly organised something for that weekend, so I'll have to drop out. Let me know if the dates change or if there are any other developments.

    All is not lost for me from a Ferrari perspective, as the thing that my wife organised for that w/e is a Ferrari factory trip to Modena, which she gave me as an Xmas present!

    Robert.

    Right

    back to the top, I've got a special deal on this at £99 per car but need to confirm numbers so can I have a yes from those that want to come, depending on numbers it may be exclusive or we might share the day with some Caterham buddies of mine

    Last date for confirmation will be 29th Feb 2004

    No noise limit!!!!!!!!
