Fancy running your car down a 2 mile runway?
Discussion
Hi Guys
I am organising a National TVRCC event at Sherburn Aero Club on 8/9the Sept
and have hired the Ex Mintex Test Track next door for the TVR Car Club guys
I have a few spaces left if other Clubs or individuals want to have a blast
All monies raised go to the Candlelighters and the Neurone Muscular Centre (not the TVRCC)
Contact me via richard(at)pcp4print.co.uk if interested or pm me
Cheers
Richard

if Tonto is taking his horse I'll throw a fiver to the charity for a ride. 
It'll probably be one of the fastest cars I'm ever likely to go in.
It certainly is - it blew my socks off when I went in it down the runwayIt'll probably be one of the fastest cars I'm ever likely to go in.
Seemed faster even than the 997 Turbo that another friend let me drive later
Certainly plenty to look forward to this weekend

Is this Sat & Sun?
Might have to bring the Pork out for a blat and if bikes are allowed to run, I'd see if we could max it out.
Pork did 191 through Brunters speed trap, but if this is slightly shorter I reckon the bike would have it on acceleration to 186mph (which I beleive the bike is limited to).
We have only hired the runway for the Saturday (as it is expensive!!)Might have to bring the Pork out for a blat and if bikes are allowed to run, I'd see if we could max it out.

Also would prefer cars only - don't really want to mix it up with Bikes - sorry
Remember, that for some people this may be their first time ever on a "track" as well

Is it OK to just turn up and watch?
If there's a charity box somewhere I'll obviously stick something in it.
It is OK just to turn up and watch, Dave - and everyone is welcomeIf there's a charity box somewhere I'll obviously stick something in it.
As all money made is going to our 2 worthy charities (not the TVR Car Club)
then we just ask everyone to buy a £5 strip of raffle tickets
The first 200ish get a free mug then there are some other very worthwhile prizes -
such as a ride in Peter Wheelers 5000M or a McLaren F1 book (£50+) and many other instant prizes

I think first runs are 10.00am, assuming I find it I hope to be there 9.30ish..
It is 10 am to 5pm each dayIt is easy to find just off the B1222 to Cawood and Selby
There will be TVRCC signs up as well as Sherburns nice big sign to guide you all in
See you there

All run safely and without incident - so well done everyone
Especially good when there was such a variety of speeds and abilities of drivers and cars
We have also raised some good money for our 2 chosen charities
(figures to be finalised before announcing)so all good fun for a good cause
Cheers to all who ran

PS I believe the runway is 2km not 2 miles as I was informed
