Default Llandow track day

Myself and matt popped up to Llandow today it was wet windy but we did get some sun and there were loads of nice cars and great track action, well worth the trip.









































Not from today but I know you'll enjoy

I know it was very unexpected tbh didn't light any fires but the owner looked like they were having fun and that's what it's about.

Give me a shout when you guys pop down there as it's local and I'll pop over for a few hours, it's been an absolute age since I last been there, I'll have to have a look at what's on what days.

Looking forward to the new Ebbw track, should make for some good racing!

My son has been working with the environmentalists putting up fencing at the ebbw track really don't think it'll be ready this year. Ok mate next time we go I'll text you. I was going to text jay as well but forgot sorry mate. We were also heading to captains after but we ended up staying till 17.00 at llandow but they have a new latte machine there so you'll never keep me away now lol

Been on Llandow Circuit's web page, £90 per car but no future dates that I could see but I've subscribed to their mailing list so I'll know when the next one is. Put up a thread and see what people think? I'd certainly be up for it, I'm sure Matt would be too and probably a few others I'd of thought.

I agree Daz the time scale for the new track is a little ambitious, best pull their fingers out tho or the Moto GP may decide to host it else where.

Im always game to come watch the track action, Combe or llandow providing the mrs don't mind having little one for the day, ain't usually a problem tho nice and local them 2 are so any problems I'm home within the hour.

I did like that blue saxo, he's got it setup quite well and sounded nice too.

Llandow calender is now online but it wont tell you all the trackdays they have on for the weekends if exclusive bookings.

I think Llandow prices for 2015 has gone upto £95 but if done through a club booking, it can be cheaper.

We can always ask around for extras if need be, min needed to make it cheap enough would be 30. 10 per group depending on experience for the morning and then open pit for the afternoon.

Hi mate yea I've been chatting to rupz we were very impressed all three looked amazing and driven well. Not sure if you fancy it but we're setting up a track day at llandow in April be good to get you lads down against our Scooby. After seeing your blobs out there I nearly sold the hatch and went and bought one but the misses would kill me she loves the hatch.
