Anyone going?
Just noticed a 458 challenge and a Noble M12 on the entry list and thought perhaps was people from here?
It's my first event of the year and I'm really excited! smile

How do you find out what cars are booked up, I'm doing 30th April at Bedford with MSV but can't find a link for attendees.

Thanks.

afaik MSV do not offer that facility, unlike Javelin wink

We did an MSV event and just accept it's a pot luck scenario as to whom and how many you get on the day. We were pleasantly surprised to find out less than 40 cars overall on Monday. Great news as there was plenty of track with not much getting in the way......almost....spotty 20 something with all the gear that thought the rules don't apply to him in his Montune Fiesta ST excluded.

Do expect allot more cars and arguably more shenanigans on a weekend day though, personally I'd keep a good eye in the mirror!

The M12 is me, bit of a novice done a couple of airfield days before, and my first time in the Noble. Just a bit worried I will break it!

Lovely stuff! I'd love to come round with you in the radical if at all possible?
You're welcome to jump in the m3 but I expect it will be a bit boring comparatively! biggrin

I'll be there with a mate in the VX, plus another mate bringing his heavily modded GT86.

Like many, first of the year and can't wait, it's been too long since the last track day! laugh

Hi Tony was ace to meet you! Learned an awful lot from those 3 laps with you! Went from being really slow to overtaking just about everything in my last session. Amazing!

Hole in block is absolutely huge. But at least it blew up chasing that 458 challenge haha!
Don't suppose your crew behind me had cameras on? Would love to see how spectacular it went.

Will be off the road for a few months as left my job on Friday to set up own business. First few contracts probably won't be paid for ~3 months. Absolutely awful timing in my life.

Hope I see you again pal. Was an absolute pleasure.
All the best.

I didn't realise you blew your engine, what luck !!
My son has video of your car when it happened as he wasn't far behind.... I will see if he can load it up on here for you.
Does anyone else have onboard footage of the day ?
