regarding the track, do we just rock up there in the morning or have you got passes etc that you will be handing out the night before?
Rock up at the track. There will be an announcement put over the tannoy (I think at 9am, Sam did say) for drivers to report for signing on. This will be were the drivers fill out a form signing away their life and all their possesions etc. You will then be given a coloured wristband that represents the experience group you have been put in. You would normally pay at this point as well, although I assume everyone has paid in full already and Sam is sorting the payments out with the Track. There will then be a drivers safety briefing and on leaving, you will be given a sticker that matches the colour of your wristband. This usually goes on the top of the windscreen on the drivers side.
They will then call the different sessions out by colour, usually with Red (The most experienced) going first, followed by Blue and Orange (Intermediate) and Green last (Amatuer). Don't be tempted to save face or act big infront of everyone by saying "Yeh, I'm a fuckin' pro see" if you've never been on a track before. If this is your first ever trackday, put yourself in the green group. No-one will think any less of you. If you've done one or two trackdays before, put yourself in one of the intermediate sessions. If you've done several trackdays, go for the red. And don't lie about it either. Putting yourself in a more experienced group when you have none could compromise everyones safety and ruin the day. And then I'll kick your arse. :homer:
You can see the orange sticker on The Bitch from her last session...
