Is there also going to be a dedicated non track car session?

Is running the day (or part of at least) in sessions something worth looking at? e.g. Nice and steady (road cars only no dicking about), free for all (testing the limits of road going or track cars but still no overtaking) and out and out 'racing'.

I like to have a good play and powerslide on the bigger bends which maybe some don't appreciate but would not particulaly like to intrude in a sticky vs. crafts pug off (unless in the passenger seat)

Only a suggestion (possibly making it all too complicated )

The track-cars have been in amongst us without incident for a while now, and as long as they remember when they are on a restricted session and don't go barmy they can then have their own unrestricted sessions every now and again. If they toss about too much and risk safety then they lose their unrestricted sessions, for good !

What is the spilt between track cars and road cars?? (ie how many of each?)

everyone needs to get a fair share of track time, with a full list this may be difficult

5 cars max on the track and 35 cars means 7 sessions for everyone to have just one go

I may try 6 cars on track as 5 works well and I can't see 6 causing any major issues. Sessions will probably be 15 minutes, so 4 per hour, meaning 24 people an hour get a run. As we usually get started by 930am and run to at least 430pm, over the 7 hours that's 168 runs, or 5 each. Sometimes we are still there at 630pm though, so let's hope that's the case this time.

i've got my work leaving do on the friday night before the Track day. Still want to go but will likely be there a little late, some im thinking possibly if anyone is desperate to go and they can to get my deposit back to me and take my place it means i can go all out on the Friday night and not worry bout offending them by leaving early or sober. I cant not go to it or rearrange as they have gone to the trouble of arranging but i was left in the dark until today. (i didn't know i as so popular - it has brought a tear to my eye) - That if the arrangers for WYIOC are happy for that.

Sorry to hear guys, but I do hope you're coming along for the enjoyment of the day The event is over-subscribed as it is, so your place will be automatically filled by one of those late-comers.
