The track is certainly more than 30% longer and a dam sight newer. Because of the greater track length than Rockingham it would be able to absorb more cars without it appearing crowded.It also has much longer straights so we will be able to really stretch the legs of our cars. I don't know about anyone else but I found it difficult to get out of 4th gear anywhere on the track apart from the straight/corner 1 and only managed to reach around 110/120. Speaking to the lead Instructor at Rockingham (Steve Lewis) at the end I asked him which tracks would suit the Astons, he came back with Donnington, Snetterton and Silverstone (but only if it was the F1 circuit).
5th gear & 150MPH down Bentley in Lance wink. Snetterton is a easy circuit to learn, but Coram will kill the rear n/s tyre if you push too hard. Sacrifice the overall laptime by driving that corner half sensibly and you will leave with much of your tread intact yes. Riches is the most satisfying to get right, flat out up the pit straight, slight dab and turn in; it is a quick corner biggrin. Too much speed and the cornfield awaits whistle

Crikey Jockers talk about creepy, I hear the sound of a coffin lid opening then up you pop on PH, life's like the Thriller video, and before you say Beat It I just want to know Will You Be There? just say I'll Be There, then again I guess your decisions not Black or White. I know it might be Dangerous and you'll need to look out for The Man In The Mirror, but you know it won't be Bad. biggrin

Here for your info, I have this proposal from the Snetterton events coordinator:

Snetterton 300 – Friday 19th September
Circuit Hire £9300
Public Liability Insurance £160.20
Total £9460.20 +VAT


The above is the minimum that you would need to pay. You will need the following items to run the event, but these can be provided by you if you have access to them.


Chief Instructor £275 (Delivers the driver briefing and runs the event. Needs to hold an “S” grade ARDS instructor licence)

Team Leader £120 (Handles all of the signing-on admin such as licence checks and filling in and checking of indemnity forms)

I’m happy to let you have helmet hire FOC (usually £10 per helmet used).

I can also organise additional instructors to provide in-car 1-2-1 tuition throughout the day. They are £225 per day. We can run the session straight after lunch for partners as you had at Rockingham.

We have the Tyrrells restaurant which can either serve a range a hot and cold meals (dependant on numbers), or a set menu for your members. If you have an idea of the number of attendees I can speak to the chef and ask what he can offer you and at what price.

  • ***************************************************************************************************************
I have asked one of the Rockingham Instructors for his day rate,,,will post up his reply.

Chaps,

After seeing the photos of Rockinghm, my co-directors would love to do this day. They own a DBS Volante and a V12V between them. They're not on the forum although they have provided me with "Handles" to get them up an running, so thought I'd run it past you lot first as I'll be taking another two spaces.

Hope this is OK.

L.D
