Best track day advice

Discussion in 'Trackdays & Rider Skills' started by dasmo, Dec 2, 2013.

  1. Booked in with Focus events with all my mates(ten of us Donnington) booked on line in fast group. We all turn up and register, all my mates are in the fast group. I'm in intermediate, so brought it to Barrys' attention sorry mate come back later I've got all these guys to sort out I may change you later. "fobbed off" got back to the garage and the current wife says so why aren't you in the fast group you wuss? Told her about Barry. Thats it red rag to the bull, give me your your ticket I'll go and see him. Came back sorted. She'd pushed in, told Barry that my husband can do any track he wishes but when he's with his mates he wants to dice with them not hold their fucking hands. So moral of the story take the wife. She's now team manager. But the barks worse than the bite!!

  15. yeah right ….kevs best mate….:wink:
     
  16. Who, the class one rider?
     
  17. Sounds like standard FE. Could give a toss about the customer. Sounds like "Barry" learnt his engagement skills from Darrl Healey who owns the outfit. Potentially the rudest most aragant individual I have ever had the misfortune to come across. I think he actually takes having no people skills as a badge of honour.
