May bring the silver bullet - the new Astra so watch out!

Cheers,

Jon

 

I hope to pop along...

But not setup yet..

Wont be mapped in time.... well.. not using the WRC injectors..cossie map sensor..etc.... so low on power

Plus.. I'll be using this as a test session... so I'll be in the "slow group" please

J.

 

I'll join you in the slow group then J (ever thought of buying a Subaru?.. )

huge dollops of fun!
jase.

 

I'm comin to play with you all! Just Booked.

Spoke to Tyres Northampton this morning regarding whether they would be attending as I will need some new boots by the end of the day. They say if they get enough interest then they will be there. So .......... if you are needing tyres then give em' a buzz and we should get their support.

Can't wait, adrenelin is rushin just thinking about it.

Cheers
Chris

 

Dear All
The gits won't let me and Birdy share a place and wanna charge us £100 a car regardless of the fact that we want to share the track time between us. What a take on I mean what difference does it make to them if I drive mine for a session then Birdy's for a session and finish back in mine. I'm not going to gain any more time on the track!
Does anybody here know someone who works at donno(who's first name isn't Adolf) who can sort it.
Cheers
Steve

 

Steve.
Sounds a pain I know, but each car is given a sticker to correspond witht e session it's in. This sticker is not readily transferrable and would mean you'd need two, which would then mean both cars COULD go out.
You could just use one car with two drivers?
Besides, sharing sessions would mean you'd only go out in each car every two hours!
Pay the extra £100 you cheap skate!

Stef.

 

Kewl, I'll be there, won't be driving but will be bringing a digital video camera so if anyone wants a tape of a lap or two and want a passenger I'll be happy to oblige!

 

You're on !!

DJ

 

W9GTR,
You will have to speak REALLY nicely to me on the day as I am the man who controls the stickers and if you don't like it you know what to....

You have a valid reason for having more than one sticker, so I will look favourably on the day (perhaps!!)

Never been on a track day before but am thinking of spectating to see what it's like - any chance of getting a go as a passenger in someones car ? If so how do I get in touch with you ?

ChrisW.

 

No problem I am sure as loads of us going - Just ask somebody - Stef if you're mad, anybody else if you're not. I'll be there with White Sti RA or Mica Red uk car - just come and ask.

 

cwal1

No problem mate. Most of us are happy to show off, just ask. I'll have my name on the car.

DJ

 

I'm booked in.. though I'll be coming along in my spanking new Lotus Exige

(be gentle on me though, it's my 1st track day)

 

Exige....... forget it bring the Edsel.

At least you'll have an excuse to be at the back.

Mike.

 

Nah.. the 400lb/ft torque of the Edsel would put you to shame..

Anywho, at least I'll be able to blame the car for being slow around the circuit.. (still running it in I'll claim)

 

I'm in. Sounds like a good day. There are over 70 posts on here now. There's a lot of banter of course, but there should be around 40 Scoobs at least. Fat chance of running slicks, though!

Hoppy

 

Would everyone be happy paying £10 to get ther Track Support unit there then or what?

Stef.

 

Stef - Yes I would.

I am going to need new tyres at the end of the day. Going to call Mark on Monday to reserve a set.

Rich.

 

Yeah me too! Happy to pay £10

Spoke to 'em last week and got a good price for 4 Proxes. Will call on Tuesday to reserve a nice new set to go home on.

Stef. Those 17's on your car at Brands look erm .................. interesting! What are they?

Cheers
Chris.

 

Stef...Yes !

DJ

 

I have booked up. Gaggin to try out latest mods on car. I managed to pass one or two Evos and Scoobs at Oulton in the dry.

Matt (Civic R)

 

Hi Matt,

Got the Mugen goodies in there then ?

Cheers

Ian

 

stef - yes

simon

 

Stef!

Count me in, those lads are invaluable, need a new set of tyres for the 22B when the day is over.

 

yes stef, even if i dont need them, its worth the piece of mind to have the guys there!

 

they better be there!

J.

 

Quick question... will passengers have to pay? I heard that Donno charge a tenner for someone to be a passenger - even in a friend's car? This seems pretty steep (up there with motorway service stations in my book)...

RobMac?

Cheers
Richard

 

Ricahrd,

Yes, you pay 10 squid to be 'ballast'. For this money you get a wrist band and means you can jump in any car (if the driver will let you ).

I guess the 10 pounds covers the admin charge and also a contribution to the rescue services etc.

I say, 10 pounds !! Cheap for some track time if you are not driving.

Cheers

Ian

 

Stef, £10 for Tyres Northampton. Sounds good to me, but how to you levy it? And does that mean anyone who hasn't paid £10 won't get help? Suck it and see, I guess. Doesn't bother me either way. Pay on the day. Thanks for the initiative.
