Thumbs up Trackday in 2006......

I've been making enquiries into a trackday in 2006, I expect to receive some info in the new year.

How many of you would be interested in a trackday if I can arrange one?

Perhaps I should start a new thread on this at the risk of pissing Speedydave off.......

Si.


ps:any track preferences and dates?

Default Track Day...

Just to keep the thread on track, see you all later... attendees so far as follows

1) skoosh ( as usual )
2) Blue94WRX300
3) Reno
4) speedydaveb (maybe)

On the track day theme, hows about this...

http://www.easytrack.co.uk/events/allevents.asp

Oulton Park gets my vote, plus at only Ł119 it's bloody good value for an open pit event. Also there are a lot of different cars already confirmed so should make for an interesting day...

Sounds like a good idea.

What's everyone's experience with track days?
I've never been on one and would like somewhere with lots of run off!! The airstrip at Bedford looked good, but I suppose that's a bit far to go?
I'd prefer to race against a few novices I knew rather than loads of pros.

See you later, might be a few mins late as got to finish off a PC and get some food and petrol.

Lee,

Track day insurance is sometimes included in the price, depends where you go... if you get it private i'd expect you would be selling a kidney!!

We're all good drivers, no need for all that insurance rubbish!!

I'll give you a hand fitting them if you like (at mates rates!), as I've got plenty of time on my hands now!! Ideally leave it till the weather gets a bit warmer.

Lee, YHPM

Fitted my rear 24mm adjustable ARB today, tho haven't had time to test it out, might put the 22mm fixed front one back on first (got the OEM one at the mo) before taking it for a spin in case it does!

Once I'm happy with the handling I'll be up for a trackday, at the mo I don't have great confidence in it, feels very light on the front end, like it is toeing in too much.

Was this an STi that you bought off your bro'? Seem to remember you saying something about it.
Hope it either turns up ok or the insurance pays out the full amount.

Looks like you had a good meet in Derby, wish I had gone now as shopping in Cannock for last minute bargains proved to be a waste of time. Nice 22b at the clock warehouse and loads of other interesting cars, thanks for linking to the pics i8gtmf.

Is anyone going to 'Autosport International' at the NEC 12-14 Jan? Heather gave me two tickets as a present, we're going on Saturday.
