Seems that way. No unnecessary travel allowed so that’s us screwed I think.

Organisers awaiting confirmation from the circuits before they can put out an official statement but it’s pretty obvious trackdsys are cancelled For Atleast a month at this stage; maybe longer

Hi, not in the Cupra R this year but did Brands the week after the lockdown was relaxed a bit, in my brothers Westfield-copy kitcar, I managed 9 laps before the rear diff blow up . Its just been rebuilt with a new LSD and we're out on track (Brands eve) next week to make sure it's ok now. It was just old and the Diff teeth were well past their best, so not my driving

 

[Sparkie]

Did Brands Indy couple of times last year and Bedford Autodrome GT a few weeks back.
Few Leons there.
Mate spun off on start finish bend at about 80+ mph. Tore the bumper clean off.

Hi Oli, That wasn't Ryan's Leon missing the bumper was it?

I’m afraid to say, yes it was sadly!
Happened at the start. Cold tyres damp track and the only bend we hadn’t seen on a sighting lap as it’s after the pit.
It humbled the paddock for a while. Took the wind out of my sails.
My times were super slow.
Coasting before braking. Easy throttle on exits etc.
Subconsciously shocked me i recon.
I only had one visit to they grass and that was a very relaxed off.

Well, at least it can't be said he wasn't trying. Just one of them things, gotta warm things up, then hit it when it feels comfortable.

I've only been there twice and it's not my favorite track too be honest, as just too long to learn in one or two visits especially when your car breaks at the beginning of the day! Expect he's got it fixed now. You boys got any other dates planned? I've got 6th July at Brands for the day and 9th September at Snetterton for the day (come along to Snett on 9th if you want, places still available).
