Default Track Virgins Evening at Snetterton 13th June

If any of you ESC crew are itching to have a go on track but are scared of holding up faster cars, making a fool of yourself, not being quick enough etc..... this is your chance for some fun at Snetterton Race Circuit

Over at Bigpower.co.uk we are organising a Virgins Event for the purpose of popping as many cherries as possible (on track that is) As a renewed member of ESC .... about time, I would like to extend this invite to you as I know some of you like the odd bit of track action and maybe there are a few that havent ventured out onto track before.

Snetterton is our local track and is fantastic for first time ventures out onto track with loads of run off, a great surface and nice facilities too.

Only those that have never driven on track before can run though.

Date: 13th June 2007
Time: 5pm - 7.30pm
(please arrive by 4.30pm to be ready to start at 5pm)

The cost is £45

This will get you:

A detailled briefing including information on cornering techniques and correct 'racing' lines. You will also be given a walk through of the circuit to show you braking points, turn in points, apexes and the correct placement of the car on the track.

The group will then be split into 2 groups each getting TWO sessions of 20 minutes each on track. (40 mins total) Giving you ample time to get used to driving the car on track and reflect between sessions or swap passengers.

Spectators are welcome but need to be notified to management so please let me know so we can get you on the list.

We currently have 32 running but spaces for 8 more but these are going quickly.

Hi!!! Well I've just seen the thread. I guess it's too late isn't it??

Also I've seen other track events. Is there a way to join some other?

Thanks

Ric
