I'm really tempted...

only 10 spaces left are a lie, its been a focused trait for a long time. they also have trouble running piss-ups in a brewery, and their days are all chrono, which means in my case, i get put in the wrong group because of bellends on very fast bikes with lots of money whom cannot ride a bike for toffee. just my 2p, count me out.
Why do you not like chrono day Tricky? I actually prefer it. Ok in the morning you may be in the wrong group but in the afternoon you will be in the group running similar times to you. No one can say they are faster or slower than they are as the times are done by transponder. Not having a go, just curious as I've thought a FE day I was on ran fine.

quality of riding style/experience from others, or lack of it i should say. just because one might do a same lap time doesnt mean they are any good on track, anyone on a super fast bike can make up a lap time on the straights.

dont know how many track days you have done with them (or others) but i also have had good days with FE, and when 50% of them (or more) have had issues you get a little bored of incompetence, when in comparison with other track day providers.

I'd be up for a forum track day for sure. Can't wait to get this bloody wedding out of the way so that I can spend cash on important things again....
