Can't do those dates but was thinking about Rockingham on Sunday 10th of May - the day after the CAT driver day as i will be up that way.

Is the Rockingham International circuit worth doing for £235? :smt017

lovely day at Rockingham, with sunshine and a bit of cloud but no rain.

Spent the morning with Bealo learning the circuit and giving a whole host of passenger laps to the lovely ladies and a few ugly men (not you Smiffy!!), and the afternoon playing with Bealo in his CSL, and friends in a 996RS and a 997RS :thumbs:

Not the most interesting of circuits but a couple of good corners and afew bad ones and then a whole load of concrete wall to concentrate the mind at turn 4. Cole Trickle we ain't :gayfight:

Got some video will stick up soon;)

Bealo was out on track already as we three (CSL, 6Rs and 7RS) came out, and coz the video we were wating for each other

HOWEVER it is the first time on track where i have seen such a small difference between RS and CSL, and at lkeast one of the drivers in te RS is pretty good.

I think the lack of a straight helps (not many people seem willing to give it full beans on the banked turn 4):smokin:

That was me :thumbs:

as Shimmy said i was already on track and struck whilst the iron was hot.

the track was a brake killer and i now realise the importants of decent track tyres. The Falkens just couldn't cut it.....

had a great day and met some new people and even the weather held out...

Report on the diff to follow Glendog
