Drivers wear lids if they want . I prefer passengers to wear just in case also adds to the excitement in some cases !

Hi - not sure if it's the kind of thing you're looking for but if you're short of cars I can come along in a Nova rally car. It's road rally spec so doesn't look jazzy, but has got cage / seats / harnesses / big lights / trip meters etc. It's not quick, but on slicks it can pull some hairy cornering speeds and is suitable for frightening passengers if that's what you're after.

I could run on the main track or the rally stage or both as necessary, and rain etc is no issue obviously. I also only live 45 mins away so could do short notice.
Let me know if that's any use - I won't be offended if it's not what you're after!!!

Steve,
The 'rari will be out of action, so i'm waiting to see if my supercharged Chim will be ready.
I hope i don't have to bail, this is such a worthwhile event, and one which i look forward to every year frown

Would suggest 8.30 / 9.00 am , however , everybody arrives and are obviously anxious to get on the track but we run 12 lanyards with other gates only having 6 . It is an all day event which will give everybody plenty of track time . As stated we are the only gate with dedicated trackside parking which gives us easy access to and from the pit gate . To be parked up and attend drivers briefing at the gate for 9.00 is ideal .
Hi Steve,
My car's currently getting a new loom fitted so hoping it's done on time. If I can't collect it until Saturday then it'll be mid morning before I can make it up there. Will that be too late? frown

Fingers crossed it'll be ready before that but just thought it's worth checking.

I know the GTROC have a gate there - if I am not a member would there be any issue with driving from your gate?

Hi Steve,

We discovered last week that my turbo was on the verge of self destruction. We are doing everything possible to get the turbo rebuilt and back on the car for this weekend, but its 50 / 50 at the moment. frown

Will keep you posted.
