Bovington mini nurburgrin charity track day.
Stumbled upon this on PH and have booked in.
50 places left. 6.3 Miles of undulating tarmac open for first time. Look here for more details and promo vid. PistonHeads Headlines Would be nice to see a few scoobs there! All for a good cause too. |
I might be interested in this (heck of a long drive for me, but I do like a good road trip), all depends on work etc if I will be away or now. I will need to speak with my brother to see what he says, but I may need to put my job hunting on hold so I can go to this such worth while event, our lads need all the support they can get.

agreed. Need someway to promote this on SN a bit better. Wonder if the admins will give a free banner as its for such a worthwhile cause.
|
just booked up now
|
I see lots and lots of incidents/accidents occuring at this "track", lots of obstacles just off the tarmac and a less than grippy surface=trouble.
Full kudos to the man who managed to organise it though :thumb: |
moral of that story then is dont crash :P

I'll pray for dry weather for you, have fun :thumb: |
Its not just about the track day thats just a bonus its where the money goes thats the main thing, IMO a much better cause than sending out the country.:thumb:
|
Argh Pants, it's full!!
I have to say that Subaru are very poorly represented :razz: The company I work for deals with Abro loads down at Bovington. I'm going to see if we have a contact to Major James Cameron or somebodyelse, maybe we can get a Subaru day sorted :luxhello: Watch this space. Paul |
lol awesome.
Think there are about 10 scoobs going. Thats not too bad i rekon :) Such a good mix of cars there its gonna be awesome :) |
I'm gave in when Jim offered a cancellation space so I'll be driving instead of paxing. He also said Drivers Republic will be in attendance in a new Lamborghini. I'm seeing Jim and Al tomorrow so I'll see if I can find out any other details.
|
1 week left :)
|
Yup cant wait should be a good day if the weather is good. Looks like im flying solo on this now as the Mrs is not going :norty:

There's a Shell station nearby so full tank in the morning which will probably last the day as it's TF rules and it's going to be wet. If not I'll pop out and brim the tank at lunch. I don't see the point in taking jerry cans. |
Mine does about 8 miles to the gallon on a trackday so no doubt ill be popping out for a top up...:freak3:
As mentioned the Shell Garage isnt far away, Bere Regis. |
Ok thats good then. Wet is going to be fun. :D
Work is hectic today so gonna have to get tracked/further diagnoses tomorrow instead. Things are looking better. I think the rack is strong enough to last the day for sure, may have to not go balls out fast tho. |
Cars back in working order. All ready for tomorrow. Its still a bit squirmy on power and heavy breaking. Quite greasy out on the test drive, so tomorrow should be fun/down right dangerous. Car seems a little bit snappy and i feel i need a front LSD :)
Put my wets on which are just crappy old tyres and the steering is off again. I guess i ruiend the tyres on the spin too, they must now be larger or bent or something. Ahh well wear them out and get some slicks on em :) See you tomorrow. Hope there is a burger van there! |
Its just started to rain down here...not good :cry:
|
Great day today and nice to meet you Steve and Chris:thumb:
