Again...apologies if already raised and answered on another thread..

Cheers

Rum

 

Hi Rum.

Signing on for drivers starts at 07:45 Hrs. Driving starts as soon as that is completed and the safety brief has been given.

Mike.

 

Cheers Mike....appreciated.

So basically we need to be at Donno round about that time....

See you on Sunday

 

rum*

get there for 9am mate, that will be plenty early enough for passengers.

come off the M1 at donington services and follow signs for donington park.

follow the signs to the competitors entrance, not the first right turn to the main entrance, you need to park in the padock area.

 

May see you there, Tom.
Keep an eye out

(any news)

Cem

 

Blow Dog...will c u on Sunday

re present position still discussing with the engineer - will advise asap.

Cheers

Tom

 

Rich father!

I will of course be giving runs in a lovely 22B to people who want to experience this amazing car.

All proceeds go to the Harj Squire Foundation

 

Just to plug our activities...

John F, Simon DB and I will be giving passenger laps for the day, throughout all sessions.

Have your tenners at the ready

If your planning to ride with John, bring some wet weather gear and ski goggles

 

Cheers Pete,

Have just arranged for Securicor to deliver my tenners on Friday - looking for loads of laps with as many cars as possible.

Just out of interest which car is best...the 22B or the Caterham Super 7 ?

...don't answer that - was only pratting about.

 

Oh Pete

Harj will be giving rides "for the cause"

WON'T you HARJ Son

Richard

Oh Rum.... Errmm Nah he's not gonna answer that one as he's under contract

 

Pete,

Maybe we could do a trade for some piccies

Josh

I was just missing P1-WR....

 

A combination of myself and SDB will be offering rides in my car also.

(SDB's a better driver)

 

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:<HR>Caterham Super 7<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Harj

I'll take you up on that! Love the new name BTW ....ROFL

DJ

 

CK1 not considered a good enough ride now then? Or is it just too dangerous?

Stef.

 

What do you think??

 

Talked the wife into letting me come to Donnington. It will be my first track day so I'll be watching this time

Going to bring a few £10 notes with me.

A bit of advice needed.
What standard does the helmet need to be approved to?
Any other things a track newbie like myself should know?

Cheers
Lee

 

Another dumb question, but here goes. Is there a circuit entry fee for cars turning up merely to spectate and if so, how much ?

Also is everyone charging a £10 charity donation for passengers ? What is the best approach for requesting a passenger ride - just turn up in the paddock. pits area and ask ?

Cheers, ChrisW.

 

First time I went to a SIDC day at Donnington as a spectator, the guy on the gate made me park outside on the grass.
Last time I drove straight into the area behind the pits (in a BMW!).
After the unfortunate incident at that event does anyone know what the arrangements will be this time?

Simon

 

Any lid can be used at Dono as long as it fits your head! Parking wise, people normally park in the Paddock area. I think that parking may be difficult here later in the day as its suppose to be a big turnout.

 

John F

Isn't it also a requirement to waterproof gore tex pants to go in your car.

I'll have mine at the ready.

Is it going to cost £10 per session to go out, serious question, coat please.

SJD

 

Scott, I think you'll find that the Gore-Tex pants need to be brown, and Bicyle Clips are advisable...

Also Biker knee pads on the elbows also help

Well either way, CK1 will be available for passenger rides as always. Just come and ask.
If you want to make a donation (not sure what too yet though ), you're more than welcome.

Stef.

 

John F
What is it with these questions?

Is it going to cost £10 per session to go out? Is everyone charging a £10...

It's a donation, I assume all the ace racers will be filling the CIN coffers. A couple of trips out will surely not break the bank.

What about £2 per car for admission to the paddock? It should be a great day and bloody good value for a couple of quid, even if you dont get to ride the circuit.

Tim I was talking about going in Johns car, from your need pad shenanigans sounds like your were talking of becoming a Donno fluffer

 

Scott, glad you posted the 'Fluffer' remark, nearly forgot to watch Ally this evening!

Well, it's true, on a bike you get your knee's down, in a 7 you can get your elbow down

 

Take a look at

 

Scott! LOL!

Fluffers should be recommended at all times!
Oh for my film days!
