FREE TRACK DAY For Supercar Owners! 10th Aug
Discussion
Yep!
A friend of mine is organising one of the 'gates' at the
"On Your Marks" Bruntingthorpe Charity Track Day on the 10th August
In exchange for giving charity rides around the track, we also get access to the track for the rest of the day when not giving rides! Or just park up as part of the static display when you fancy a rest.
He is looking for anything SUPERCAR / Truly Interesting or American as they have enough Elises / Exiges etc!
He is part of Streetlife TV who will be filming the whole thing.
There is so much going on.
DO NOT PM ME FOR INFO ABOUT THIS EVENT!!!! I'm just posting it on his behalf!
For more info contact Chod on:

Here is their spiel:
+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
Team Swift (a glider & tug display team that is the most extreme we have ever seen), ie, they do the display tied together.
Tom Cassels (U.K. aerobatic champion).
And maybe (if we can swing it) the Vulcan bomber xr558 (as its their home base, and part of the lottery commission rules is that they have to do charity days). This is only a wish.

M15? As in Noble M15? As in the car that doesn't actually exist? That'll be interesting!
Thought they had a running prototype of the M15 as the M14 had been scrapped...

Yeah - I'm hoping I might just about be able to hit 80 or possibly even 90 kilometers per hour, naturally, I am certain my body will probably disintegrate from the forces and health and safety will have to get involved...
It will probably serve me right I guess!
Then of course, there will be all the "I told you so's" from everyone who has ever written in to campaign against that awful celebration of reckless abandon that is Top Gear. I am sure my desire to do this is the sole responsibility of Jeremy Clarkson and his show should be taken off air and he should be prosecuted for "Encitement to travel at a speed greater than that of a push bike by means of an internal combustion engine"
However, should I actually live to tell the tale; I will face an almost certain life sentence - if not hanging - for all the babies, women and children who were invariably mown down at such devil-may-care velocities!
After all - Speed Kills!
Give Chod an e-mail or a bell on the number in the original post and see what he can accomodate - if you need to get there later or something?
