Very exciting - last year was a great day out, and Blyton the perfect venue.

Unfortunately not only is my Alfa for sale*, but we are expecting at the end of April, so I think I'll have to miss this time, unless the baby comes early.
Hope its as much a success as last time.

Email sent, would be great to get a berth for the E24 in this years event...she is a 1979 635csi so will need cougar status...

Depends on noise limits but i'd love to bring the Chim. I would bring the XJS but i would feel sorry for throwing it around a track hehe



If not the Trabant might be on the road by then silly

Is 1973 too old? It would need to be in the Jaguar class, not cougar, to avoid offending its feelings!

That one doesn't qualify, sorry, too young and too fast. The automotive version of operation Yewtree will be informed if you apply with that wink
No problem, rules are rules, look forward to shaking down the E24.

Cool. I think Mr CSL would get frustrated at all the stuff going sideways at such low speeds compared to him. The day is mainly aimed at modern classics, we don't want a big mismatch of performance. I hope you follow our logic smile
Of course, I like the sound of this day the more I hear about it, My brother can help pilot the E24 as he owns half of it anyway.

Cheers

We had an XJS last year, a rare manual XJS-C V12, which was surprisingly sprightly!



Noise limits are Blyton are 95db but they're pretty good about things. Their policy is online here.

A trabby would be crackers! It's also most welcome. I suggest you sign up pronto as these sell out fairly quickly, you can pick which car to bring nearer the time, all 3 will qualify one way or another smile
Cheers, is this the 1st May one you are all talking about? (seen on your website)

How do i sign up?!

The TVR may be a little loud but i could probably blag some trackday silencers. The Jag on track looks great. Mine is a 3.6 manual but it sure is a heavy old beast to throw around like that!

If my Lola T70 has sold by then I'd like to bring my Sunbeam Lotus along as this was an excellent day last year.

Big soft spot for the Lotus Sunbeam cloud9

Reminds me I need to spend more time talking myself into passenger rides this time round.

Hi Folks

Just letting you know that there are still a few places still up for grabs on May 1st 2015. £89 per driver. Some cars have had to pull out, and other buggers are too slow getting there wallets out, so there's a few extra spots up for grabs.

Strict CarClub 18-30 rules still apply: cars should be 'Quick, Cool or Quirky' and in production between 1997 and 1980 (not 1985 since Thomas Cook now allows 35year olds along on its STD-riddled Spanish bonkathons). There are always the 'Jailbait' and 'Cougar' exemptions of course for interesting machines that might just be a little younger or older than they really should be, but that's at the MotorPunk Committee's discretion (or the size of your bribe).

Drop us a line via the site or to darryl@motorpunk.co.uk
