Money saved, money spent...

I collected a spare exhaust cam shaft from Steve P the other day, in the hope that it would be good enough to replace mine.  I dropped it off with Dynotech yesterday afternoon, and yay!  It's absolutely fine, and has just saved me £180!  Thanks very much Steve 

 So to celebrate me not having to spend the extra, I've booked a track day at Brands!  It's possible that I'm completely insane, but it's booked anyway, for December the 3rd.   Could be quite chilly, but then again, so was my rookie school and first race round, so it's not like I've not done it before, and it could be useful experience as well.  It'll also give me a chance to run th engine in after it's rebuild.

 I think I'm suffering with not having racing to plan for and look forward to.  I've spent all year always preparing for the next round, and it's so weird now having this long gap.  Maybe the track day will give me something to focus on a bit!

Are you brand new to racing or have you been racing for quite some time, just not at a professional level. Just curios how to get involved. Thanks, B

This is my first ever season of racing - prior to that I've only ever done non-competetive track days. Sadly it's not professional racing, it's just a hobby and I have to have a proper job to pay for it all!! As for getting involved I'd say the best place to start is to go to a club race meeting and see what it's all about. Racers are a friendly bunch, and always more than happy to talk about racing! Feel free to email me if you want any more details :o)
