Well, we have another weekend booked for 1st and 2nd September!!

First off though, I have been asked that the details here are not to be published on any other forum.
Only 12 forums are invited, all of which have taken part before. This event has proved so popular that numbers are restricted to PH to 30 for Saturday and 30 for Sunday.

Please note, due to lack of space, only vehicles driving on the event will be allowed access (excluding towing vehicles) - all passengers must arrive in participating vehicles.



Charity Track Day Weekend

RAF Marham would like to invite you to a charity track day weekend on 1st and 2nd September 2007.

The track uses a combination of the airfield's main runway and taxiways resulting in a track that is around 4 miles long consisting of wide, smooth tarmac and concrete with lots of safe run offs – There will be approx 1 mile of the main runway in use with many sweeping curves and chicanes along the taxiways.

It will run from around 9am to 4pm on both days, split into 30-minute sessions. All the necessary facilities, such as toilets, catering, drinks, marshalling, medical and fire cover to support the event will be on hand, and RAF Marham’s gliding club will be operating for air experience flights.

You will need a helmet, normal seat belts as a minimum, and a fire extinguisher that will need to be secured in the car (that doesn't mean a plumbed in system). Race suits are not needed, but preferably natural fibre clothing with full sleeves and legs. Cars must be road legal with a current MOT or, if a race vehicle, licensed for a current MSA series.
Note there are no noise restrictions as RAF Marham operates far noisier fast-jets through the week! Sharing a car is OK (i.e. alternating drivers between sessions) and drivers are allowed to carry one passenger, but they must also comply with regard to helmet, clothing etc and be over 16 years of age. The entry fee is per car entered, not per driver but all drivers and passengers will need to sign a disclaimer. Spectating is not a possibility unless the individual is coming to assist someone who is driving - the reason for this is quite simple - the event insurance premiums and Health & Safety requirements go through the roof astronomically otherwise, so by restricting it to participants and assistants, it makes the event manageable, safer, more relaxed and enjoyable and importantly keeps the cost down to you.

It is important to note that the track does attract stones and if you drive directly behind the car in front along the main straights your car could be subject to stone chips. If you’re worried about this it is advisable to fit bonnet protection or drive with this in mind throughout the event.

The atmosphere and event is relaxed, enjoyable and safe. Price is £60 per day or £100 for the weekend with every penny going to charity. We are expecting a high number of participants so it is advisable to get your name down early. Once we have all attendees’ details, payment information will be posted and we ask that prior payment is made to speed up the overall process.

PLEASE NOTE: RAF Marham is a front line operational air base and as such, any operational commitments on that weekend would lead to the Track day being cancelled. This is however quite unlikely but prior notice will be given and any money paid up front would be fully reimbursed.

Important
For security reasons, every person entering the Base including all passengers must be security vetted in advance. To this end the organiser requires the following details from drivers and passengers by 3rd August 07 to allow time for the security team to check everyone. The details required are listed below and it must be stressed that they will be held in the strictest of confidence:

Name
Address
Tel No.
Date of Birth
Place of Birth
Passport No. (if possible)
Car make and model (of towing vehicle if your car is trailored)
Car registration
Sat/Sun or both

I am easily confused, so please can you send me the above info in one go. It makes my life a lot easier!



Don't forget all the money raised goes to some very worthwhile charities!

The holiday plans that prevented me from booking up when the september dates were announced have now collapsed frown On the upside it means that my diary is clear for that weekend smile

March was great fun so if there are any spaces/cancellations then I'm definitely up for doing both days again.
Sunday is full, but I think Keith may have a couple of spares for Saturday?
