So the 21st came, and we brimmed the tank and set off for Knockhill..
Total mileage travelled 129.4
Total Laps done 34- Track length 1.3 miles
Fastest Lap (timed using “ye oldie stop watch” method) 1.15 at average speed of 62.5MPH
Car ran for a total of approx. 1hr 20 mins out a 2 hr session. There was lots of traffic as we were probably the 2nd slowest car there (faster than Nickso!) so spent a lot of time getting out of folks way. As per usual, the driving standard was high, with everyone being courteous
Mechanical Maladies
Wobble from front under braking early on- a trip to the pits and some wiggling/re seating of wheels seemed to cure it-very odd. Other than that, it was well behaved!

All in all, an awesome evening out, and less than ½ a tank used!
Things to do for next trackday:
MOT...
Suspension Refresh (dampers appear to be mismatched to springs)
More weight reduction (interior)
Weight Reduction (engine Bay)
Driver weight reduction :?
Possibly get more track orientated tyres (depending on budget)
Datalogger?
