Trackday in my Nova last week at Bedford

[M Sutton]

Finally got the Nova on track after owning it 3 years lol.

The misses bought me the trackday at Bedford Autodrome as a present for my birthday and it was a great day! Even if it was one of the hottest days of the year the car performed very well and I covered about 120 miles throughout the day without any issues :)

My mate came along in his 205 gti so we had some a few fun battles although he was much more confident in his after doing about 7 previous trackdays in the car!

Ive deffinalty got the bug now and will be booking another one for August and September. Im going to go to the same circuit because its 10 mins from my house and its a great track to learn on! Next year I might venture to some tracks further afield but just want to get used to the car.

Some pictures from the day below and all pictures here: http://public.fotki.com/M4rks/my-nova-track-car/bedford-autodrome-t/

I like seeing a nova on track making some of the other stuff look tatty; good job :)

[M Sutton]

Thanks for the comments guys.

Iain - the Go-Pro was mounted on a suction cup on the front screen. Need to find a better position and i only got a couple of vids early on in the day when i was getting used to the car! Will post them soon.

Thought that's what it looked like, all the trackdays I've been on say no suction mounts allowed.
