    Re: Track Day Curborough Aug 2016

    Hi,

    I'm quite happy to take people out on track as long as you aren't too worried if the driver runs out of talent :-))

    Last year passengers in cars didn't seem to be a problem for the organisers and it would be a good way to get other club members involved.
    I expect the only formality would be passengers having to sign on as happens on any track day.

    Re: Track Day Curborough Aug 2016

    So Guys some details...

    The track opens at 9am till 17:00 ish, last year it was a bit later.
    You can get into the track from around 07:45
    You need to attend the sign on for both Drivers and passengers this is normally around 08:45
    You will need your Helmets
    Pay your balance on the day, and you will need a few pounds for lunch if you want food from the local eatery that the guys will have menu's for.

    Bring a camera and have some fun.

    Re: Track Day Curborough Aug 2016

    Hi Guys, many thanks for the offers to take a passenger, that's very kind.

    I'll bring my Helmet ( It was MSA approved when I last used it ) and a wallet of dosh!

    Are overalls required ? or is that optional ?

    Bob, I sprinted a GTM Coupe ( please - no laughing! ) round Curbourough some years ago ( Mid 90's ) and my driving skills were non to good, managing to spin on a couple of visits, but it was great fun. So I am interested to see how a Stratos feels around the Curborough track.

    regards
    Joe

    Overalls at your discretion, all they ask for is the helmet.

    Re: Track Day Curborough Aug 2016

    Sorry Guys but the forecast for tomorrow is Aweful and A) I don't use my car in the rain B)I don't want to risk my expensive bodywork trying to go fast round a wet track with no experience and limited/zero talent. Am very disappointed as was looking forward to having a go and seeing what the Toyota engined car could do. Any other day this week and the forecast is good but it's going to piss down tomorrow,law of sodomy. Ian if you want me to PayPal you the deposit let me have an email address and will do so

    Re: Track Day Curborough Aug 2016

    I have also decided to wimp out. I drive my car in the wet if I need to and am I happy with its handling etc, but the weather forecast means a miserable day standing around in warm rain and wet track with 160 mile journey each way as well.

    Hope for another day. I expect I will get to the LMC track day at Goodwood next year which even if it is wet there are plenty of other things to occupy the day.

    If I owe anything (I have already paid the deposit by paypal) please let me know how much and how/who to pay.

    Sorry again to miss this.
