I now have passes for this event which is one of my favourites, last year I received a DVD of this event which I copied to all who took part.

If you have never done a track type event before then this one is a must it is not as fast as some but will give you and you passengers the experience.

I need 10-15 Vipers and Corvettes for our paddock, format is 40 minutes bikes on track then 40 minutes cars with passengers who pay £5.00 per lap in your car. You can do as many or as few a laps as you wish or just turn up and show and shine.

For the ladies you can drive an ASDA artic with trailer on the track, or visit the stalls, there is food available, last year breakfast was free thanks to Asda for the bacon rolls and coffee.

The event includes a free airshow at lunchtime, running a genuine Lightning Jet and a well know Viper owner may well even race a stunt plane.

If you want a pass for this let me now and I'll stick one in the post.

One last thing this event needs to raise £45,000 in ONE day :yikes: to take 100 terminally i'll kids to Lapland, please help me to achieve this.

Thanks

August 14th, think I'll queue for a ride in one of the Lambo's this time, last year there was some great cars there.



They used part of the straight last year (top loop wasnt used) think in Nads viper we hit just over 170 before jumpimg on the brakes, there was also a few chicanes and a sweeping hi-rev 3rd gear bend. Its really wide and can easily have 5 cars side by side down the straight so no problem over taking the slower ferrari's, Lot of other sporty marques turned up

There was lots of old miltary aircraft dotted about which you could park next to,real close and take some nice pics, if you get there before the crowds.

As Paul said 40 minute sessions alternating with bikes, so there are plenty of sessions throughout the whole day, track shut for lunch which give the vehicles a breather

I am camping at Silverstone on the night of the 13th as it is the LMES 1000km race on the Saturday and then F3/British GT on the Sunday. Where is Bruntingthorpe? Leicestershire isn't it?

Would be very keen to forego the F3 / British GT in favour if this
