      maybe if we all agree to a headlight flash or something for slower cars to get out of the way and try and sort the cars into some kind of speed order ie put all the r's at the front gti's and the like in the middle and atmo stuff at the back we should be fine. there were only a few cars that got lapped more than once last time.

      Flashing your lights will only work IF the driver in front STILL flags you past as per QR instructions to acknowledge a car is passing. Don't try complicating it. Car in front MUST acknowledge you to ensure everyones safety and enjoyment. (though I had flashed my lights a few times to ensure cars knew I was coming on to the back of em and keen to get by when safe to do so )

                  lolololololololol Anthony bro i forgot your name. I just assumed APR, but then again given how fast ya polo goes I sud have figured that it couldn't have been APR.lol cause all APR seems to do is make all your warning lights flash.lol Ill private inbox you mate I was just wanting to know who installed your audi driveshaft cause i do believe I may have some issues with mine and weber is booked out for ages...jmac is flat out for the next million yrs and so was hoping for a diagnoses sooner, and the fact that your guy knew about audi shaft fitting polo.....thats st cred.lololololol

                    I agree with what you said regarding the type of day it is. Leave it at that.

                    9 more cars. Is almost the entire front straight taken up with gaps. So its actually a hell of a lot of extra cars. If we can get 2 groups that would be great. They can only say no.

                    I think i will try and organize a track day soon for those interested. Im currently in a similar boat with track days, need a second set of wheels as A: 19's suck on the track and B: tyres get runied pretty quickly.

                    Cheers
                    and who did you find to be your passenger?

                      At the last one I would have had the least powerfull (although im not sure what power that mk3 tdi made, i doubt it can be less then the 1.8 though I could barely keep up with it in the straight), cheapest car there, along with next too no track experience, however I can only recall being lapped more then once by one car, and actually overlapped a couple others. I guess the difference is I'm not nearly as protective of the little **** box unlike everyone with there new expensive fancy gtis and R's probably are, and drove the absolute tits off it

                      Really, unless someone is really slow in an event like this I think its probably best to just leave overtaking to the straights. Lakeside is a short circuit and the straight comes around every minute or so anyway.. Still, light flashing is an idea I like, but as said, whoever is being overtaken should definitely give the signal that it is safe to do so as well, especially if its wet.

                      Lets hope the weather holds up again

                        Fingers crossed the rain will clear up.
                        Haha, I don't think it will be that much of an increase, just getting the stage 2 part of the carbon fibre intake.

                        Definitely hope the weather holds out!

                          Lame, stage 2 intake is basically for looks isn't it?

                          Weather should be good, still trying to clarify if we can have driver swaps halfway through for the few people who were asking.

                              hahaha i remember you now! Both you and Anthony passed me at 120km/h on the straights. I was thinking, how could those little Polos pass my Mk6 GTI!

                                Maybe if you ditch your back seats, spare tyre, run half a tank of fuel you might have a chance
