This is something I've been meaning to sort for a couple of months now, and today I finally got round to seeing the airport management just before lunch who think its a great idea. Now the plan is either A: you pay to blast around the airport track day style (a good circuit can be made from the perimeter taxiways and runways, they used to have bike races here many years ago apparently) for the evening. B: people pay for a passenger ride in your pride and joy (similar to what the sporting bears charity does at the classic car show) or C: a mix of the two i.e. one session for you to blast around and then the next for passenger rides etc etc.

This would have to be in the summer due to the fact that it could only take place in the evening after the airport shuts at 19:30 until sunset. Although of course passenger rides on the public roads a la Sporting Bears charity at the Classic Car Show could take place at any time and this is also a possibility.

It would most likely be a Saturday evening and would be a great event. If you would like to take part please add your name to the list here: http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/gassing/topic.asp?h=0... Airport Sport & Supercar day: Help for Heroes and put yes or no to the track day style idea or the passenger ride idea, of course both of these may take place side by side but as this is only in the early stages of planning only time will tell what format it eventually takes.

Thanks all,

James
