New Sprint Series - Curborough & Throckmorton
Discussion
Looks like Motorpunk have launched their own little series of sprints for 2015. Details here:

I think a few of us will have a crack at that, I've done an MP track day before and it was a hoot (although I was pretty desperately hungover and in an old tail-happy BMW).
I don't know what the cost of sprints usually is but this seems pretty reasonable.

It's two venues for now 
(I'm helping organise the championship, and Sprintandtrackday will be running the events)
The cost of a normal sprint is about £80-120, and you'll get about 3 runs. At our events we're limiting the amount of participants on the day, and maximizing the amount of runs you'll get - this will easily be 20+.
We also facilitate testing, and a lot of hillclimb/sprint guys come to us pre-season to shakedown their motors.

Did a day at Curb ahead of a Nottingham SCC championship sprint event to test/practise - just the job
Castle Combe sprint is the first of the season for many and the third MSA-licensed sprint of the year. I'm doing 3 events before mid-april...

Anything that isn't totally stripped and is road legal. It's mostly MX5s, but there's been a few minis, rallyes, KAs etc.
Thanks, might pop over for a couple. Mainly so I can let friends double drive as a one off without them having to get license etc. Looks intersting and good value. I took over 300 pix today [19 March] and car owners can have copies FOC by making contact with me & I'll 'We Transfer' them to you.

First time I've driven the figure of eight course and it seemed strange going the "wrong way" down the track from the Molehill . It's a great course . My lurid over steer out of the hairpin on my second timed ( last ) run was due to a rear wheel nut coming loose ( and they are centre locks ). Note to self - check nuts are tight before driving . No damage done .
