29 or 30 PSI i think so slightly less than normal driving.
just had a look on the thread for this on Scoobynet (ESC section) and theres a couple more people on there saying they've booked up but don't know if they're doing one or two sessions yet. But 1st session looks like 17 scoobs in that case |

yeah thats right its a Tenner for passenger + another £10 if you dont have a lid.

#258
|
|||
|
|||
Yeah im sure they can video record, rather them than me, i would boff for sure
Am looking forward to comparing the M3 to the Scoob, it weighs a load more so going to be very diferent. |

I will be one of the newbies on this track...I've done Silverstone gp twice, goodwood twice and Castle Coomb twice but never in a scoob so i will be staying out of trouble and not aiming to overcook it in anyway!

The great thing about the indy circuit a couple of laps and you can remember all the corners, i remember the 1st time i did brands just how amazed i was at the steepness of paddock hill bend.

Are the toilets close to the track?? Mind you dont think theres going to be much left by the time I get there. Probably the second oldest as well.

Still optimistic as ever i see
Nobody needs to worry about being a newbie, they're taster sessions so pretty much everyone out there should have no/limited experience |

Be safe and enjoy that's the main thing people.
Ian you'll be fine mate. As for tyre pressures, I will drop mine a few psi then after about 5 laps come in and check pressures.20 minutes will be gone before you know it |

Matt Clark has always told me to run tyre pressures @ 2.0 Br on track days (28lb).
I keep mine at 2.0Br all the time. Slide less and grip is heaps better than 30+. |

i take it that's for a classic with 18's....what do you reckon a fat newage should be then? 29 or 30? |

I'm back on my 17"s as well, the older Pirelli PZeros on them only have 2-3 mm left so might as well use that up rather than the newer tyres on my 18"s! |

I have been chatting to a guy on M3Net who races an M3 csl, he is running 19's and drops them to 26 when cold which under race conditions reads about 32 to 33 |

Anybody would think you lot were out to set personal bests with all this tyre pressure chat...

My Tyre pressures are staying the same

Hey, I am not saying everyone needs 2.0 Br on track.
As mentioned above I guess it would be a little higher for heavier cars and yes, it will depend on tyre sizes. Crow: 28 cold mate. I guess if you spoke to 100 guys who race the pressures would have a large scope. So many linked issues. I still feel that lower pressures provide a better track balance. High pressures do make a huge difference regarding "turn ins" and powering out of tight corners. |

As you say large scope for people racing, type of tyres being used makes big diference. Guy i was talking to uses cup tyres on his CSl and they are completely diferent. . Scott Not out to set any records,cant afford to replace the M3 thats for bloomin sure. only i know from a fair few track days in the scoob that tyre pressure made such a diference, i got anal about it after a day at Bedford, car was ****e until a chat with a guy in a classic scoob,turned out i was running way too high pressures. Having never run the M3 on track i'm after some feedback. |

Might only do a few laps today, got to save the car for the Ring. And my new tyres will not be as scrubbed in as I would like. So if you see me pull off early, you'll know why.
Looking forward to a great day!!
