Domma i have only been to general practice days both wet and dry. I am happy to do street sprint or time attack at least that way i am grouped with like performance cars and can concentrate on my driving and not my mirrors.

I'm happy to do it again, the good thing about the trackday challenge was learning how to present yourself in a racing situation, like B24 said.

Here is a clip from my last race at Wakefield. 40 cars on a 2.2km track with plenty of speed variation. Watch how I get allow the pass then move a little off line with minimal down time and low risk of accident. As you can see, everyone is out there working together to not crash but still keep your speed and line.

I evolved ten fold through this type of driving compared to street or trackdays. Its something everyone should do to become a more complete driver. MTC is designed to improve your skills and confidence in the right environment so you can make the move to competitive driving.
BTW, thanks Eric. Look forward to catching up soon.

Here is another one with some good examples of having to deal with traffic. My car was limping around all day so I was off the pace. The cars passing me are quick and on a mission but we all seem to work together with no accidents due to passing slower cars.

B24 i watched both videos they were races with like performance cars always a heap of fun. My point was at a general practice day anything can and will turn up. I wanted to make it clear that the group the mr2s would be in can include anything from excels to 300k+ supercars. Racing similiar performance cars is no worry, a mclaren with s closing speed of 180k+ as you are coming up to a corner in the wet or dry is a different thing. I hope everyone has a great day. Me i will be at the drifts that day.
