Time to turn those baseball caps around, wear your baggiest pants and put on your beastie boys medallions...........yes it's TRAX 2006 at Silverstone on the 3rd of September

I am planning on taking a CCUK club display area which means I need you guys and gals!

£10 per car pre-entry (£20 on the gate), £7 per 0-60 attempt and £800 for a 50 car session on the track which works out to £16 per car, or it is £25 per car for a mixed session which means you could have a lot more fun upsetting TVR owners.....

So if you want to go I need committment from each of you. If you just one to do the show and shine then £10 for a day out is a massive bargain if you ask me, if you also want to drive the Silverstone Grand Prix circuit i.e. the full circuit at whatever speed you want to then this is your opportunity!

All you need is a valid driving license, a helmet and road legal i.e. MOT'd car and tape to tape you headlights, long sleeved top and trousers.

Please get back to me a.s.a.p. if you are interested.

I received a cheque from Timon for this event but I need money from the rest of you guys that want to do this asap please.
It is a brilliant day out and your only chance to lap the Silverstone Grand Prix track unless you spend lots of money on a track day.
Even if you just want to Show & Shine your car you are very welcome so come on let's see a show of hands for this one!

Okay guys (and girls) I need cheques payable to CCCUK from all those that want to attend this fantastic event.

£25 for a 15 minute session around the full Silverstone Grand Prix circuit, hopefully made up of just Corvettes but for this I need participants i.e. YOU!!!

£10 entry per person plus £7 for each 0-60 timed run.

Last year there were 16,500 people attending this event making it the 2nd biggest event at Silverstone after the Grand Prix!

There will be a CCCUK show and shine area for us to park the cars and assuming there is enough interest then there will be a Corvette only track session.
If there is not then you might be out on track with anything from a nippy Nova driven by a 17 year old to a full works spec British GT car.......

I NEED CHEQUES NOW!!!!!!

That means you Mr. VETTE and Y50 VET (Sam)

Final attempt to extract money from those that have indicated they want to go but are about to miss out on the Silverstone GP circuit for a miserable £25.........

Send cheques NOW!!!!

I will be booking this Friday after that there is guarantee you will
a. get in
b. get to drive the track should you want to.

Even if you just want to show 'n' shine your car I need to know so that I can order you tickets and more importantly arrange a suitably sized display area.

I currently have 10 cars paid up and ready to roll

£25 for a track session
£10 per person pre-entry (£20 each on the day)
£7 per 0-60 timed run

Sorry to hear that, do you still want entry tickets, or will you get them independently?

I am going to try and make it to this with Cheeky as I am about for that weekend.

Edited to add:
Put me down for two people as my wife will also come along.
I won't track this time as I have 2000 miles to do starting just over 24 hours later,
so I'll get £20 off tonight and I guess Cheeky will be in touch.
