I'll definitely be along to Brands to say hello and get a few snaps

[Trevsked]

Is Brands Indu or GP?

Trevor.

[Bibs]

Indy I'd have though for that price mate. I'm not sure they do evenings on the GP circuit either.

[Jamie-BellandColvill]

Great stuff Bibs, look forward to seeing you there

 

It is on the Indy Circuit Trevor.

Hi,

 

As its priced per car can two people share the driving for the day?

 

Many Thanks

 

Paul

[Jamie-BellandColvill]

Hi Paul,

The price is per car and you are welcome to share the driving but there would be an additional £16.50 charge for the other person at Goodwood to cover their lunch and coffee. There is no additional charge for Brands Hatch.

Thanks,

Jamie

I'll be at Goodwood on Monday; looking forward to it.

[Bibs]

Have fun

[Jamie-BellandColvill]

Looking forward to seeing everyone there!

 

There are a couple of spare spaces still for those that are interested

[The Pits]

I'm booked up for this too.

 

I don't know Goodwood very well but looking forward to giving it a go.

 

At least I know the car will be on the pace, even if I'm not!

 

 

[Trevsked]

I'm planning on popping down to this if I get the time. Look forward to meeting you.

Trevor.

[Jamie-BellandColvill]

Great, look forward to seeing you Jonny

[The Pits]

Can't wait, looking forward to it.

 

Prepare to be grilled on power upgrades Jamie!

 

 

[Stubox]

Think I'll pop in too on monday as we re up the road for a weekend away.

A big thank you to Jamie and the team from B&C for a great day at Goodwood today.

 

The weather was dreadful but the glorious track, the cars, the way the day was organised and the excellent lunch meant that nothing was going to dampen our spirits. That and true grit of the Morgan 3 Wheeler drivers on show meant that no-one in an Exige had any right to complain!

 

Seriously though Jamie, many congratuations for your first event. It was superbly well organised, safety was paramount, there so few cars on track at any time it felt like I had the place to myself most of the day. I will do my best to make sure I get to the other B&C events. And what a track, very fast, very challenging I need many more laps there to get the hang of it. 

 

But the Exige V6 Cup was really exceptional. If there's a better 'drive to the track and home again' car out there at any price, I haven't driven it yet.

[Stubox]

Rather moist day, will post a few more once I've blanked the reg no, nice to put face to name , the V6s sounded rather good on circuit.

[The Pits]

Yes good to meet you too Stuart, thanks for the pics, I hope to add some video soon.

[Stubox]

A few more

[The Pits]

Cheers!

 

Didn't the V6 cars sound amazing blasting past the pits?!

[Bibs]

Any problems with the drive-bys?

[Stubox]

The V6s did sound rather nice, and the first time I'd heard them from outside the car! With the 'flap' open they sounded lovely on the gearchange points and yours and the black V6 exiting the pitlane sounded rather good too.

 

The B n C car with the QuickSilver exhaust sounded nice too but not as good/loud as I thought it would. Not sure about the 'tips' either.

[The Pits]

Jamie (sensibly given the conditions and the lack of run-off) had it in 'tour' mode on the DPM. It would be a good bit louder in 'Sport' and 'Race'. The noise seemed to carry further than the standard car so I think it was making more noise. I think the biggest issue is how good the cars sound as standard!

 

I love the raw, searing, high-pitched thrash of cylinders and valvetrain mixed with a bit of Tie Fighter from Star Wars!

 

They really sound amazing and wickedly powerful. More like 500bhp at 9000rpm going by noise alone.

 

 

[Bibs]

The (engine protection) valve opens no matter what mode you're in at 3,500 rpm. 

 

This was causing issues last time I was there as there wasn't an easy way to be quiet past the drive-by meters.
