Â£20 for a helmet is too cheap imo but then again as long as you're not sat next to that twonk in the lambo you really don't need one.

Contigo · Apr 17, 2017

OMP one from Demon tweeks are fine Â£50 odd quid and great quality.

I bought a omp star helmet seem to be of good quality , I went for black as I didn't want a white one and added a little personal touch .

Lol! All the gear.... No idea ....

Funny that my cycling helmet is more than double what most of you are paying and you will be going 10x faster.....

Not really. Rather different design constraints particularly in terms of weight and aerodynamics. Although I'd probably pay rather more if I was still riding motorbikes

In a auto two peddles, two feet .

or are you bringing the track toy ?

And cycle helmets don't offer as much protection, just a web of plastic and foam on top of the head, no side protection. false sense of security!

I think I'm going to pop down in the Giulia QV, was tempted to ask about the track, but I'm still a bit precious about my baby, I know I would probably get carried away!

Any plans for any meet ups on the way?, appreciate all coming from different directions, but specifically those coming from south/west, somewhere like Fleet services M3?

Is 8am early enough? thought it was best to arrive at Brooklands by 8?

MrMickS · Apr 18, 2017

Anyone coming from the other direction around the M25 with an alternative meeting spot?

We've always done 8 in the past (gates normally open at 9am) and it's no more than an hour from fleet. My you are keen!

jasst · Apr 18, 2017

That's ok, guided by your experience, was going to have to leave at 5.30 to get there for 8.00, means I get a lie in!!
