Does anyone know if there's a shop at Brands to buy a helmet?

Don't know about a shop but you can hire a helmet from the track day organiser

Sorry, but there appeared to be some static in the air, all sorted now.

Nothing to see here move along.

Google is your friend.

Local motorbike store would suffice.

Not patronising really Martin, just reactionary.

As for the Vantage, at my age maybe I'm heading that way ?

Was sitting in the traffic there, waiting to join the A3 in my ML, supping my Costa coffee and savouring a packet of Munchies.

Pretentious, moi laugh


(Wasn't watching Tennis, just returning from crap work..........)

I'll start the 'banter'.

Good behaviour reward?

I'm here all week. Tip your waitress and try the fish.

Brands has two shops that sell helmets, the main big shop that sells all kinds of race gear, race suits, gloves etc etc - and then there is a more specialist smaller shop that is a single brand (I forget which) that also sells full racewear, both open 9-6. Both are underneath the main stands.

Well we could have that but I was referring to Trev4 being allowed to spend their wedding anniversary at the track.

Just happened that my better half was asked to go on a spa weekend with the girls so being a good husband I said you go darling I don't mind, left it a few weeks then mentioned about the track day she was so relieved that she didn't have to feel guilty about leaving me, it's all about timing wink

You won't yet.

They hold all the names, get a group and apply the discount.

Probably the week before.

Just phoned Brands and they have no record of Nick or myself having booked.

Stewart they do have you an Trev you are on the list no one else.

If people could call Brands tomorrow and ask for Sam they will sort it out.

Cheers Gruff

Hhmmmm. People need to mention TVR Group when they book so please make sure you do.

Group bookings are put through in one go about a week before the event as per phazed's post. If in anyone is in doubt please call MSV and double check you're on the group list.
