Can someone plz. confirm!!

Cheers
Shrey
The pump right outside the track sells Speed. I have tanked up my car over there a couple of times.

Shery,

What I meant to ask is, will "speed" (or any hi-octane) make any difference for real ?
Or is it just a placebo ?

Ask manek, what 800 can do on track; all your inferiority complex will vanish in thin air.

Like they say,

"It's not the size of the dog in the fight, but size of the fight in the dog that matters."

So you need not worry....

We need to adhere to the following:
- Seat belts (a must)
- helmets (driver and passenger). No passengers allowed on the rear seats.
- Dont carry loose articles inside the car while on track.
- Tape your head n tail lights when on track.
- Drive with care as first aid is around 20 kms away.

General car check up like
- engine oil level
- coolant level
- spare wheel
- tyre pressure
- steering oil level

Its going to be hot at track so its better to
- Wear a t-shirt.
- Carry lots of water.
- carry a cap
- Wear comfy shoes

add on if i have missed some points.

some videos for beginners

Adding to that.
-check brake pad thickness
-check brake fluid level
-check all filters for leaks (found a leaking oil filter on my car)
-check all tyres for nails (found 2 on the same tyre)
