Track Day Curborough Aug 2016

Following last years successful track day at Curborough, we are able to do it again this year.

As folk who took part can tell you you get plenty of runs in a very relaxed setting, and it is testing..!!!

For those that are interested could you indicate if you would prefer a June or August Date?

It will have to be a mid week event again as we cant get the course over a weekend I think the cost will be about £60 for the day as before.

Let me know on here ASAP.

Thanks Ian.



So the date is August 25th track opens at 9 am till 5 pm give or take.

Gates will be open for 8 am.

You will need to wear helmets.

The total cost is £60, and you need to pay a none returnable deposit of £30 now, balance on the day, please via paypal direct to sprintandtrackday@hotmail.co.uk let me know when you have booked so we can keep a record of how many and who is going, also add your name to this thread please.

When you pay please add a note in paypal saying stratos club and tell then what your going to be driving.

As before a run to the local foody place will be made at lunch time and the guys will have menus on the day for you to pick from.

Its a fun event so do try and support it.

Going so far.

Hi Ian,

I am interested, but cant guarantee being home as i am involved with taking some new ships out of china this year & as always the delivery schedule is ?????

However there is more chance of me being home in August, so I would vote for August :)

Anyone else interested or Neil I will go with August?

Hi,
It was an excellent day last year so I would definitely be interested.
Only problem is I already have a lot of things planned during both months so being able to attend would depend on actual date chosen.

rgds Bob

Looks like it will be Aug as another club has grabbed June.

Hi Ian

That's fine, I probably have more chance of being there in August so just have to wait and see but hope to be there.

rgds Bob

August would suit me better.

Well you hold the record Bob so you need to be there and defend it!!

Hopefully a few more will be ready on the road by then, and fancy a try on the track.

Whats the format for the day and do we have to come in a Stratos?

Don't think my Stratos will be on the road by then but for £60 I may be tempted to come in something else!

No its a club event so just come in what you like provided it is safe, a Stratos would be nice but I wont be in mine...lol
Its a very relaxed day, a quick briefing in the morning then your free to use the track as often as you like, with only 20 cars going you get plenty of runs, you will run out of steam before the day is out, I think last year some were having over 20 runs.

Its not crowded and we get a good mix of cars, a light hearted time board is kept for cars in different classes, and our current leader is Bob in his 3.2 v6.

Deposit paid, So I will start the list of names.

1) Neil Simons (Turbonutter)

Damn, just realised I will be travelling to Belgium for the Grand Prix on the 24th. Sounds like a good day, hopefully next year, in a Stratos...

Hi,

Deposit paid

1) Neil Simons (Turbonutter)
2) Bob McAdam (mariner)

Any more takers for this one? just 2 Corse's so far what about the HAwk & Lister Bell Owners?

Hi Neil, should be having a go at this........................but not in the Stratos though..................:):):)

............... bugger off ! lol....... I know I know !

I am very tempted but give me a couple of weeks to work on this front suspension set up. Am not around much before 13 June so thats my issue. It will go round the track OK with my pedestrian rate but its getting up there will make me sea sick with how it wanders off line. Going to revert to toe in and see how that is....

I think it was mentioned before, but Toe in at the front is a must for the stratos - you dont need much 20-30' is enough. Easy to sort and should solve your wandering issue.... Its looking more and more likely that i will be home:D:cool: & the more cars the better !

Neil......Nellie's new engine may be the next big job !......nothing special ...currently looking for 3.0 24v....I have been reluctant to take the smokin 12v out as it is a brilliant starter !....sorry I am off topic !

Guys I have heard from the organizers and we need some more support (cars taking part) for this event or it will be cancelled, another event gone..

We are trying to sort out a drive to follow this event to the great Yorkshire countryside making a possible 5 day away, folk can join or leave the event on a day by day basis as they feel or come and do the 5 days. this is still in the advanced planning stage.

We need more cars to the event at Curborough, it does not need to be a Stratos those that have said they are going please make sure you have paid your deposit to Dan
As far as I know these are the people who are going.....

The total cost is £60, and you need to pay a none returnable deposit of £30 now, balance on the day, please via paypal direct to sprintandtrackday@hotmail.co.uk let me know when you have booked so we can keep a record of how many and who is going, also add your name to this thread please.

As before a run to the local foody place will be made at lunch time and the guys will have menus on the day for you to pick from.

Its a fun event so do try and support it.

Going so far.
