It's a week day so a little tight. It's on, but if you've never been to Elvington before, beware, it's a tyre and brake eater!!

Isn't the 10th August the same day as the SIDC Speed and Feed II at Bedford?

Decisions, decisions!

Bedford is a close to us as Elvington.

Might be some track places left - worth dropping Stef a mail perhaps?

Thumbs up

Friday 10th is the SIDC day at Bedford Autodrome. Not so local but should be a good turnout as an alternative.

Damn, I was looking forward to it as I'm reasonably local to Elvington, anyone know why it's been cancelled?
MichelleWRX1994 - do you know if Amanda has been told? I'll send her an e-mail anyway

ChrisB, cannae be bothered now, isn't Bedford darn Sarf anyway?

Plenty of things to do on a Friday, who knows I might even let my parents know I am still here, for they haven't seen me since I got the Scooby back!!! There again, the Lake District has a few roads I would like to try out........

Hi People

Elvington has been cancelled due to the lack of takers for the trackday. Bookatrack only took five 5 bookings for the day which is at least 30 behind what was needed to run the event. I know it was a weekday but would have thought that we would have done better than this.

I would like to apologise to anyone who has made plans to attend and has been let down but clearly without drivers we simply cant run it.

I will run another day in the future if it is at all possible to get the venue on a weekend.
