Previous info:
Hi guys,

I have been arranging a small track day at Curborough Sprint Circuit, and currently have about 5 spaces free. The track is located near Litchfield and is not very far away. It's only a small track but can be great fun as we have the place to ourselves for the day.

This event is not a WMI event, so please do not contact H about this. I have spoken to H about this, and he is happy for me to put this up in here, but it is me arranging it. So please do not hassle him with any queries about this. If you have any queries please bring them to me.

I'm looking to fill the additional 5 slots. Those that are interested will need to send me a £20 deposit straight to my paypal. The total cost of the day is about £550 between us which should work out at around £40 to £50 each for the whole day.

I will be collecting the remaining money about 2 weeks before the day as I need to pay when I pick up the keys for the track.

So if you are interested, please pay a £20 deposit paypal to my account which is kostandinokustas@googlemail.com. Your name will not be put on the list as confirmed until I have a deposit.

Thanks in advance

1. Hammerman (Forged 2.5 STi) - DEPOSIT PAID
2. MrBizkit (Adam R53) - DEPOSIT PAID
3. Jon Findlay (STi) - FULL AMOUNT PAID
4. B4D_HK (STi Spec C ) - FULL AMOUNT PAID
5. thesupermario69 (R53) - FULL AMOUNT PAID
6. Mark Feighan (STi) - FULL AMOUNT PAID
7. splitpin (dunno) - FULL AMOUNT PAID
8. Mark Lightfoot (RA) - DEPOSIT PAID
9. Ioakim Koustas (WRX) - FULL AMOUNT PAID
10. -Si (R53) - DEPOSIT PAID
11. Housey - FULL AMOUNT PAID
12. Sizzla (Evo) - FULL AMOUNT PAID
13. Shaid (MX5) - FULL AMOUNT PAID
14. Paulo (Spec C) - FULL AMOUNT PAID
15. JediFragger (Civic Type R) - FULL AMOUNT PAID


This is my car on the above track btw:

Update 12th March.
Right, bit of a plan for the day:

First some location details as it's a bit of a pain to find.

Location on Google Maps

On SatNavs it's probably best to put in something like "Netherstowe Lane WS13" as I don't have a complete postcode for it.

If you are racing, please be at the Circuit no later than 9:30am
Track time starts at 10am
Lunch when there is no racing permitted is from 1pm-2pm
Track time continues again from 2:00pm
Track time finishes at 5:00pm

If you are coming to watch, please note that I have to come and open the gate at the front/entrance of the track and so will not be wanting to go back and forth each time someone arrives, so please choose to arrive at one of the following times:

09:30
10:30
11:30
12:30
13:30
14:30
15:30

When you arrive please give me a call/text so I know you're at the gate on . Please do not arrive in between these times.

I will be posting details of a local Shell, and pub that we can visit a bit later on.

Thanks

Total is based on numbers, and the guy who owns the track said it's around £550, but the 2012 pricing has not been confirmed... yet. So £550ish divided by (looks like we'll get 15) = ~£36.67

Paypal details are kostandinokustas@googlemail.com

If you can just send a deposit of £20 for now until I get the final pricing.

Start time on track is 10am, break between 1pm and 2pm and then finish on the track at 5pm.

So ideally get to the track for anything between 9.15-9.45am.

Mark, you're crazy lol.

I have just had confirmation of the total price for this year back from the owner of Curborough.

The total price is now £565 to split between the 15 runners. Giving a total price of £37.70 each rounded up to the nearest 10p. Or £38 rounded up to the pound. Whatever you are happiest with is fine by me.

So when you get chance, those who have paid £20 deposit, please send me the difference of £18 via paypal, and please do so before March 15th. Thank you please

I may pop up to this if I'm not working.

Been a while since I last raced at Curborough.
