I did the track day on the 12th of July and you can have as many spectators as you like. So take your camera crew with you. They allowed us to have a passenger hot lap on the day which was good too. I'm not sure if that's something that happens all the time or not. Anyway it was a good fun day and you get to drive your car as fast as you can

I know I did :)

Have fun guys

^^^none of the above pending the condition of each before you go there. Make sure you have plenty of tread on your tyres, plenty of meat on your pads and that you're up-to-date with a service. It never hurts to change oil before and after a track day though. Be very careful not to put your handbrake on in the pits or you'll be very likely warp your rear rotors :blink:

They teach you when to begin breaking, what lines to take through a corner, when to accelerate again and when to change gear. It's a very informative and enjoyable day, you'll want to go back.

      Because the cars wheels are on blocks, you slide under the car.   Pretty much all the bolts you touched should have been put in, but not fully torque up.   Back them off a turn or two, and then tighten them up from under the car with the wheels sitting on the blocks holding car up in the air.

      Yes. Imagine you have the car on the ground, and you mine away all the ground under and around it, except for the area directly under each individual wheel. That's exactly how it'd look, except the ground will be what ever you make the bit under each wheel from

      Yes, if you set the "height" right so that it's basically where it would be when sitting on the wheel. It's actually exactly how I tighten bolts that need to be done that way. However....urethane bushes do NOT need to be done that way. The bush slides on both the inner and outer. It's only rubber bushes that are bonded to the outer that need to be clamped to the crush tube in the "home" position. And my car is so full of sphericals now that I have very few that I need to do properly and I sometimes forget and have to go back and fix it afterwards!
