Further to our discussion on Saturday morning here is the 'Novice' trackday I was talking about;

http://www.msvtrackdays.com/car/calendar/2016/sept...

It is on Monday the 19 Sept at Snetterton. I'm thinking of doing it in Wendy to get a feel for her.

Wendy...

[billynobrakes]

Looks good to me, and it will be my 1st track day in Wedge making a total 4 track days I have done

[Jack Valiant]

Looks good to me I will confirm in a weeks time once my schedule is fixed

[billynobrakes]

I am all booked in but I will go up night before as it will be a nightmare on a Monday to get there so need to book hotel, if you know any close to circuit let that would be great

[Matthew Poxon]

Sessioned Novice Day? am I missing something here?

[ClassiChimi]

Limited numbers on track, I think!
I did one once were they also graded you by your level of experience/ confidence,, I went in the slowest,,, so I could be the quickest

It's a good way to be introduced to the track and the rules, less hectic with less mad Griff drivers around you

It's a nice calm approach, build up slowly, etc, learn the circuit etc etc, probably more focus on corner techniques in the driver briefing, stuff like that.

Enjoy

What says for novices and I will be in my Wedge and don't want mad Griff drivers around as already said

[mk1fan]

Booked on. Now just need to get Wendy relocated and ready.

[Matthew Poxon]

No mad Griff divers! you cheeky bds!

[billynobrakes]

Plus we want some food left to eat lunch time 😉

[Matthew Poxon]

LOL. I might book up now with the sole intention of being first in the dinner queue.

[billynobrakes]

And why not as you have only done a few trackdays and it would be good to meet up again and bet I could do a quicker lap in an old wedge than you in your Griff 😉 so gauntlet thrown and I will buy you lunch if you beat me but I mean a light lunch

Yeah, but how much food did you eat in that time?

[Henry Harris]

I am seriously considering making the trip.

Update: I have booked. Staying at the Breckland Lodge on Sunday night.

See you guys there, if not before.

To be decided. It is probably an early start to get to Snetterton in time for the briefing, then early to eat, bed and early to rise. Breakfast is only available from 7:00am

I will probably get to Breckland Lodge about 6 ish, check in and have a few beers and a bite to eat, briefing is 7.30am so might not have enough time for breakfast as me and MK1fan want to get to the track early, see you at the hotel

[mk1fan]

Sign on is from 7:30. Sound testing may start then or at 8am. Briefing will likely be 8:30am.

Garages will be a bun fight so at least one needs to be there early to throw a towel over a garage. I'm not bothered about breakfast at 7am and will probably have a bap during the briefing.

A garage will support 4-cars (come on Mr V).

Breckland is 2-miles up the road.
