Rich 378 Report post Posted April 27, 2016 It was a bit unfortunate, track was dry as I left the pits, then it honked it down. Lack of track experience showed though, particularly wet tracks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Was a great day until then, in the dry Snetterton is a really fun circuit. Glad you got home OK Rich, I really felt for you having an almost identical accident to the one I had last June, albeit more on the near side front. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rich 378 Report post Posted April 27, 2016 Also realised I left before we had sorted garage cash. @Ade I probably owe you some money! 1 richardcarman reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Test Drives Unlimited 278 Report post Posted April 27, 2016 Had a fantastic day at Snetterton and great meeting you guys Hope the repair bill isn't too much Rich Get yourself over to Blyton Circuit as there is plenty of run off if you get it wrong I covered 143 miles on the Track and used just over a tank of Shell V-Power Sent from my Archos 53 Platinum using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steeps 294 Report post Posted April 28, 2016 Was a good meetup, many thanks for the passenger laps from the few that I had. Would have liked to have done a comparison with a Primacy runner but learned enough to see about upgrading in stages rather than saving it all in one go. I didn't go to take photos as I was testing a different focus system on the camera so most of my shots are not of GT86's, here's a couple I did get: 2 DanJ and Rich reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nicebiscuit 655 Report post Posted April 28, 2016 Well, they must have had more practise at GT86 panelbeating then any other Bodyshop in the country by now... They managed to salvage my rear three-quarter panel despite an impossible looking crease in the wheel arch so should be a good job...
