Default Track Day, Llandow, August

Hi,

Myself and a couple of mates have decided to organise a track day at Llandow circuit.

This is not a cruise or show, simply an oppurtuinty for people to try their cars out on a local track at a reasonable cost.

Dates which are being suggested at the moment are either Monday 16th August or the Friday 20th August. The Monday gives you the chance to prep your car over the weekend, the Friday gives you the chance to have an early start to your weekend. Either way its enough notice in advance for you guys to sort yourselfs out and doesnt clash with any other event as far as i can tell.

Here's the how the day is planned at the moment:
9am Driver and passenger check in.
9.30am Driver briefing.
10am Start on track.
1-2pm Lunch.
2-5pm Afternoon session.

Food - Tea, coffee and rolls will be available from the canteen on site.

There will be breaks for marshalls to grab something to eat/drink during the morning and afternoon sessions, no more than 10mins each time approx. This allows a good track time of 5hours and 30mins provided the weather doesnt turn to the point where its dangerous to be on track, no one wants a crashed car or hurt person. There will also be a properly trained paramedic and ambulance at the track side should the worst happen, not a nice thing to mention but i'm sure you'll feel safer to know that there is a properly trained medic in attendance.

There will be a maximum of 25 cars so spaces are limited. This means that we will for the morning at least run sessions, this will give a maximum of 8 cars at a time 15mins of track time before another the next group are sent out. In this rotation system of 3 groups you will as a minimum get 2 hours of track time. Interuptions such as crashes, offs or oil on track can interfere with track time, im sure your all mature enough to realise this. For the afternoon we will investigate the posibility of running an open pit.

Costs
Full day - £80.
Extra driver - £20.
Passengers - free but only one passenger per car.

All drivers must have a full uk license. All cars must have MOT, road tax and be in road worthy condition. If your car is deemed to be un roadworthy on inspection at 9am you will be refused track entry, there will be no refund. Unroadworthy cars are a danger to everyone. Race & Rally cars - you must contact me. Everyone must bring their own helmets, no helmet, no track time at all. No exceptions, we are looking into arranging helmet hire but no garantees yet.

Insurance. I have arranged insurance to organise this event, however as with all track days there is no insurance or liability for any accidents which happen on track. If you want track insurance i can put you in touch with companies which will be able to offer you track day cover.

I believe i've covered everything, any questions, fire away. So, who's in?

Who did you organise the insurance through? could you email me as per my profile as I have a track day organised in August at Curborough.

Cheers Andy

Would be interested - on the proviso that everybody on the track will be insured. Is this checked out properly by the Marshalls on entry to the track?
