Guys

We need about 10 cars and drivers tomorrow from 12:00pm to test some new WRC technology by driving round the Prodrive test track.

This won't be an all out blast, but you'll be part of testing technology used on every car on the world rally championship.

I appreciate its late notice, but let me know if you can make it and I will confirm.

Cheers

Simon

 

i should be able to make it if you let me know by mid evening so i can confirm with work.

 

Can't make it for 12 but can soonish after, how long for and where is it?

 

Hmmm, tempting. Just a bit damn far Got an important exam on wednesday so could do with a quiet day to prepare, bugger

 

Thanks guys..

Please keep an eye, I'll post something up later this evening, but John and MT, assume you're coming barring any major changes this end.

The test tracking in Fen End, near Kenilworth. Its less than an hour's drive from Northampton, up the M1, then M45.

Cheers

Simon

 

I assume they don't mind a heavily modded WRX wagon then...

 

very tempting....would be worth the 4 hour round trip

 

OK Guys

Anyone who fancies it, please leave their name here and I'll post in the morning to confirm.

John and MT, you're both confirmed, assuming you can still make it.

All the best

Simon

OK. You're need to get to :

ISC Technologies

Oldwich Lane East
Fen End (nr Kenilworth)
Warwickshire

Could you please call Linsey on 01676 531600, tell her you're from ScoobyNet and give your ScoobyNet Username, your Real Name and Car Registration.

When you arrive at the security gate say you're from ScoobyNet and they'll direct you to us.

Ideally if you can be here for 12pm for briefings, etc. If you won't be able to make it by then, please let us know.

Thanks guys.. look forward to seeing you later.

Simon

 

is it ok just to come and watch ?


steve

 

Well I'm on holiday today - with nowt to do. Spoke to Linsey and Simon and I'll be there at noon

 

To be honest, it won't be a big spectator event.. but you're welcome to come and drive round. It won't be high speed, so there won't be any tyre damage, etc.

 

Is it to late to say I can make it???? And would I be able to bring my son along as he's on school holiday??

 

Not too late, but unfortunately insurance only allows 18 year olds and over

Sorry

 

On my way down

 

Ahhhhhh.... was that YOU that I just saw (I was in the M3 with Simon).

It's just clicked.

Regards,
Shaun.

 

Thank you to everyone who turned up to help.

It was a very successful test, and you can now have the pleasure of watching the wrc tv show and seeing the technology in action which was in your car (look out for the silver roof pods).

Thanks again

Simon

 

Was looking out for the white SN car

Had a good time. Unfortunate that noise restricted things a little.

Cheers Gents

 

Any chance this will be happening again?
I don't mind being contacted/being put on distribution list of volunteers if this opportunity repeats.......

Please, please (stretches arm higher up in the air than anyone else!)

 

yeah was good fun
just such a shame about the old dear with sensitive hearing
learned a few things about my car aswell
