I wondered about going to Lydden myself apparently it's dead easy to get booked into and v.cheap - You got anymore testing lined up Speedster? AndyW and myself were going to see if we couldn't get a few of us together to test on the same day - I understand some people might want to be a bit more secretive but we're up for it (well for the moment anyway)

Lydden is a superb circuit. I had one race meeting there in T-Cars. The next testing date there is on June 3rd which coincides with the Queen's Jubilee. Would you be interested if there are still places avaliable (or will you be at a street party!) Unfortunately I have AS Level exams in May and June so won't be able to make many test days until July but I would like to try and make that day at Lydden. Let me know if you have any other ideas.

Hi Stephen

Thanks for the tip-off - when I first read your post, I got all uppity - how dare Tony get some extra practice in!!??? Then I remembered that Racer & I have done Brands once and we're doing it again in a week or so, and you & I have both had an extra go round Goodwood. Then I realised I should shut up

So anyway, I'm game for Lydden if you guys are - do we know how much it is?

Lydden Practice Day Price

I have just recieved an application form for the practice day at Lydden on 3rd June.
Great value at £100 for the whole day (9am-6pm).

I do like the Flymo!

I think we have all given Andy enough stick for this one now!

Have to let him do something else to deserve a bit more ribbing

It's on the A2 between Canterbury and Dover.

Quite a nice little circuit, excellent viewing positions too.
