Default Don Palmer,

Going to arange a day with him next week, I wanted the Thursday 27th Aug
but hes away then for a few days but said anytime before.

Last time there were two of us, the other guy had a RB320 on semis and Brembos,
which was nice. As happens I didn't know him but he was a top bloke.

Anyone fancy going?

I bought some spare identical wheels a while back and have now got three and
a half sets of tyres! I got them to use on track etc but cant decide which tyres
to use- AO48's, 5-6mm Potenzas, or track shagged Potenzas. I think the ones
already knackered but they will be all touching canvas on the way home from
Bruntingthorpe


Russ.

My guess is it will be at Bruntinghtorpe, but I believe he uses other venues.

More info on his web site http://www.donpalmer.co.uk/

Might do Elvington on the 2nd or 19th Sept while the tyres are shagged.

Fantastic day today, money well spent. You could spend a few grand on
the car and not even come close to going quicker.

Had the geo done too afterwards, much better and more 'pointy'.

EDIT to say- He's planning on doing a more advanced day at Bedford
for less than he asks for now.
