LOL just had a read of some new posts....

No racing, no fastest laps... Just good clean fun is all this is.... As long as we all check our insurance policies to see what cover we have and have all the appropriate stuff in place all will be fine.

My insurance with locktons gives me full cover for AM only track days "which this is" so if someone does hit my car its covered! if I lose control and come off resulting in damage? its covered...

As long as we all remember its just a fun day for us all to enjoy our cars...

I cant wait for this day...

Are we all agreed to cap the numbers to 40 cars???

How many were there last time?

I agree a cap is sensible but there will be people who drop out between now and then so I would suggest it's worth having a reserve list.

Well I will be looking for some commitment in forms of ££ in the new year.... A reserve list is a good idea, I will update the list once or if hit the 40 number....

Merry Xmas everyone....

I have just got back from holiday to find an email from Will from Rockingham.....

Am I the only one who would suggest the Sunday 22nd???? As offered at no additional cost ether... I can see this making the whole event much better for all??

I will keep bumping this thread just to make sure we all see it. Also in the next few weeks I will start grabbing peoples email addresses etc for the final confirmations for the day.




Hi Paul,

Hope you are well and getting enjoying the festive season so far?

I’m emailing as we have had a slight shift in our calendar which has resulted in the 21st April needing to be offered for a race meeting test event. All is not lost though as this has freed up a few other options which should still work for you:

Friday 6th April
Sunday 22nd April
Friday 4th May

To confirm, if the Sunday was an option for you I would honour the weekday rate.
Let me know if any of these are suitable alternatives?

Many thanks,

Will

Speaking personally, I am quite happy with Sunday. It's looking possible that is one of 'my' weekends with daughter. In that case I will have a 14 year old in tow.

On similar note can we invite mates along? Not to drive but as spectators or passengers?

This will seem premature and it may have been dealt with but will there be food/drink to buy?

Thank you for your efforts in organising this.
Paul

You can bring people with you, that's no problem.... From memory there is a café there.

TBH I am going to have to make it the Sunday as the other 2 dates they offered I cannot make.

No issues here - in fact more of a reason to ask if anyone knows a nice little nearby pub with rooms/hotel that has good parking and so make a weekend of it?

There is a great hotel just by the circuit, I remember a good few of us all stayed there before...

OK so the Sunday 22nd of April is now the new date. I will confirm this with Rockingham.

Yep, Sunday will be fine for me.

Any more thoughts on putting people and/or cars into each session? I'd be quite keen to be in a track day novices with large wallowy GT session, rather than a session full of international professionals in GT12s/Vulcans if you catch my drift...
