Who would be interested in clubbing together to hire Nutts Corner for an evening. It costs £40 per hour and if we had 6 or so it would cost £20 each for 3 hours.
The only problem is only one car allowed on the track at any time
but this can be a safer option in the long run.

We could time each other round the track to see who has the hottest Scoob!

Probably wont be able to get a booking until late August as it is booked up until then.

A track is a good learning curve and you`ll be amazed how much your driving improves and how much more you learn about your car.

You would need to check out the public liability insurance as timing may invalidate it, I know it does for most track days.

BTW the next kirkiston trackday is 21st July

Track skills-----top way to spend a Sunday!!!!!

Andy, The timing will be unofficial and between ourselves. You are quite right in saying that it may cause legal problems if we were timing each lap officially.

Shall we say the first 5 names get to go. I think too many will spoil it too but I dont want to disciminate - so first come first served.

When I get 3 definite names including me of course I will phone for the next available date.

So far its Mad555 and myself - 3 more please

You in Andy?
I think Kungfu will go - I`ll give him a ring tomorrow.

No helmets required. You only need that if there is an open track i.e. more than one car on at once. This option is more expensive but fun also. I slipped in with the Porsche club track night. It was £50 but I was able to see how the Scoob compared to Boxsters and 911`s etc.
