Time Attack @ PGP 6/11!!!

Anyone game for some lapping/time attack event in Kent on 6-11??? Summer is kinda here. The rain will go away soon. Bring your seven out and stretch her legs a bit!

Any interest?

Its in Kent. I went to their last lapping day(in the pouring rain and still had a super blast)

If you like to push your car to the limit a little and use what seven is designed to do and do good.

Plus it would be nice to get a cluster of seven out there...

Damn, I'd totally be down for this... but I just had my first Son on 5/22. Hopefully next year.
Where ARE all the sevens? or Afgmoto? Spyder? Get in there Josh.

I went to their last "lapping day" it's pretty much went like this...
There's the track don't go off of it. No timer. Nothing.
But this one seems like it suppose to be a timed event. With a littl more official stuff I guess.

^^^ your making us look bad, why are you asking this here jk kinda.... I believe you should just buy a set of heel toe peddles, and shim it proper. I've got wide feet, and can work both at the same time. plus when the brake is depressed your at the right peddle hight. works for me at least.

What? Do you still have stock pedals in? They're PERFECT for that. I never had any problems learning heel-toe in teh 7.

I got an audi a4 a few months ago, heel-toe in that is a nightmare. The gas pedal is so much farther down than the brake pedal is. I just gave up trying to do it in that car.

You dont need to heel-toe if you dont shift!!!
But I don think you should have problem with that in the seven. i think it's set up properly from the factory.

I doubt you will even get out of 2nd gear, maybe down the straight, even than bounce redline for a second and dynamite brakes, turn. Repeat.

hey it's ok. you just have to accomodate with your footwork. There's plenty of cars out there that doesn't have the nice same-level-gas-and-brake-pedals.
