Its a 120 mile round trip so not sure, how much will a run cost? Im assuming if we've got a crashhat we can play or do we need standard spint/hill climb prep.

Andy S.

All you need is a Helmet

It will cost £40 each if we get 10 cars(maximum) and you will get lots of goes.

chief, really, he's not joking, you'll actually start to get bored of going round
there is plenty of track time at curborough, and your only really limited by the fact that you have to stop occasionally to put out your brakes, or reset your suspension settings



It's a great place to really rag your car at fairly low speeds, and get a feel for the handling of the scooby, well worth the trip m8, especially if you've never been on track before
chris.

The Chief

Ok i'll see if i can get the day off (Pops is a tyrant btw)

and i'll have that

Beefy

Trying to get the day off for this. Wish I was my own boss like Steel, 23 minutes to sort it out!

The Chief

Must be nice 'sigh'

chris.

The Chief

No, he would not do it, my buddy with the Dax now that is a serious piece of kit, 4.0 V8 and weighs less than 600kg, and he is an extremly good driver.

The Chief

BTW - i take it crash helmets are compulsary??? i will have to buy one.


Will an open face suffice??

Beefy

Yep open face helmets are fine chief.
