Had so much fun! Great meeting everyone, thanks @BMBabe for organising!


Don't think my Zed has ever looked this good! My friend Tom should have everything else ready in the next few days!

Seen a few short videos so far, was a terrific session, with 1.9 to 3.0 Z3 on track together, but only 6 of us in total, if Stacey is able to get a session in the future I hope a few more will be able to make it. Never been on the proper track at Silverstone before, a bit eerie with the stands all empty, but a real buzz knowing that the F1 cars are there every year along with BTCC etc etc.

Great circuit on offer today for £45, friendly pedal to the metal action, overtaking only on straights and on the left, very well organised.

I think my brakes are still glowing, 150 miles on a tank! Worth every penny.

Evidence to follow!

Wow awesome session at Silverstone today

Big smiles from all today
To be honest it looked like @spurs fan in a coupe And @Mnbrennan were having the most fun They kept changing places

A few photos that Sara took yesterday whilst braving the cold.

Notice the only one with the roof down ........and the reason I couldn't keep up with Andy and Martin......not as aero dynamic because my crash helmet stuck out above the windscreen .
@t-tony and the Midlands Zed Shed crew, huge difference with those lowering springs and brake lines, impressive indeed. Feels a lot more like a sports car now and hardly any juddering through the steering, really pleased with it . Many thanks .

Steve.

Happy you like the improvements Steve.

Happy you like the improvements Steve.

As you know I was dithering about fitting the springs for ages but so pleased we put them on, should have done it earlier really.
Oh yes, forgot to say......the £12 A pair rear Ferodo brake pads did ok as well .
