Thanks John, yeah so much fun were had that day , and i worked out i spent Sub £200 for the full day , that was ticker for the day , Petrol tyres , food drink and some brake pads

Power wise , i could of done with a little but more power for the straights as there bigger cars were just walking away from me , but soon as the corners came lola came back to the Clios at least , Got a video of me Catching up to a 2.0 Gti seat ibiza and passing a Fiesta St :)

errm Yeah , Read the little write up

Well what a fantastic day at oulton park, started off damp morning the track started to dry out a alot then after dinner the rain came down heavy, what made the afternoon a bit more challenging, but been such a fantastic day the little fiat did well against all them bigger cars can't wait to book the next one

Had a little few Twitches ,

first one i was flat out down the main straight , Braked at the braking point , and boom lost brakes so pumped brakes and all i heard was bang beang banng , Got my brakes back locked the front up and got round the corner , , nursed her back to the pits , ONE of my newish Rear pads had De laminated , and i lost peddle to i pumped it ,,

Was quite scary at the speeds ,
Quick phone Call to one of my Good friends who lived close by , and he was going to come and watch me later on in the day , so i asked him if he would pick me up some brake pads ,

little while later , New pads were fitted and back on the Track ,,

by time all this was happning , The hevens opend and Rain was so heavy , so on my next 25 min session , Thow the car in to the chicane and i lost the back end , Quick spin round ( got black flagged since i spun ) so had to retun to the pits , ( when you get black flagged you have to go speak to the track orngiser he just has a talk to you about what went wrong and how to not do it again


But over all , Yesterday was such a Fantastic Day , Lola performed Awsomely


I used about 3/4 of a tank to do 130 ish miles ( i think i did on track) , soooo
 
Lola is now running Green stuff pads , Epic pads so far ,, and im only bedding them in ... only done 60 miles on them ,, have to do 200 miles before giving them death ,,, sooo... soon as i hit the 201 miles they will get death :)
