Driver training North Weald 9/12/07
Just seen this thread, and fancy this. I know a couple of other people had mentioned this earlier this year:
https://www.scoobynet.com/track-days...rth-weald.html
Don't know how many spaces left but very tempting
Especially after being taken out recently in Zak's scoob to get a feel for a different turbo etc...
would like to be able to drive mine more enthusiastically

would like to be able to drive mine more enthusiastically He takes group's of four per day, so should be able to fill a day with ease...
Probably not the best time of year to be doing it though.

au contraire
you'll be spending the majority of your time spinning or sliding and you'll be praying to the rain gods after a while trust me. Plus the cold air is denser providing more power to the engine.
More power + less grip = muchos grinning amigo

it's a great time to do it, if damp, it actually makes it easier to learn some technics as things happen at lower speeds.
The 4 car days are very good, there is nothing that will make you faster for the £ spent than a day with Andy Walsh!

Good point Neil.Ok I have just looked at the dates and we have:
1st, 11th, 12th & 13th February 2008
3rd, 4th, 5th & 6th March 2008
Cost is £190 per person based on a 4 driver day.
I would rather the March dates but am entirely flexible if that doesn't suit.
Let me know by late this week and I will ring to book/get details.
Cheers guys

I have reserved 3 dates, they are all Fridays so we get a long weekend from work
22 February 2008
7 March 2008
14 March 2008
These should give us all time to get any required work done to our cars
These are just reserved, there are other dates available but as Neil said they do go rather quickly...
I have reserved these for all of us...
1. S600B_DC
2. Mark_B4
3. WRX_Dazza
4. Mneame
check the dates, or if you want to suggest others. it's £190 each for the day, maximum of 4 people.
