Latest National Day 2008 Information (18-09-08)
Just incase you have missed all the ND talk, this years National day will be held at Mallory Park in Leicestershire on Saturday 27th September.
This year it is effectively a three day event for club members with camping on Friday and Saturday night, National Day with track time on Saturday, then on Sunday there is an event organised by the British racing and sports car club www.brscc.co.uk
This is all the up to date information that I have available. This also includes the answers to all the things I was asked on the boards.
Car Boot Sale
After a few requests we are setting aside an area for a car boot sale, this will be an excellent opportunity for you to get rid of your unwanted parts then this is the time to do it. The area will be sign posted and there is no charge to for you to do this. To make it fair for sellers and so they can enjoy the full day, the car boot sale will be from 11:00-13:00.
Track Driver Information
- Helmets are required but you CANNOT hire them on the day, this is the site that I got my crash helmet from at a very reasonable price. They are fully road legal with all the required safety stickers. Ghost bikes
- All Road tires are fine to use on Mallory circuit but if you use slicks a minimum of a half roll cage is required.
- Noise limit on the day will be 98db, I am unsure of how strict they will be with this.
- Track tickets are per person and cannot be shared with friends!
Please see the schedule for when you need to be there for your briefing and also when track time starts.
Track time is still available but time is running out to buy tickets in advanced.
Tickets sale CUT OFF is Wednesday 17th for the advance prices.
Show and Shine
We will be having show and shine and as usual for club members only, there will be a dedicated area to display your car. To be included in the show and shine competition all you have to do is park in this area. This year winners will have an additional prize, as well as a trophy if you are the successful winner of a category then you will be included in the 2009 RTOC calendar (available December 2008). This opportunity is an added incentive to get your car picture perfect.
Traders
Traders (general)
We have full use of all 14 (2.8m x 7m) garages in the pit area, so the club is offering traders an incentive package. The package will include entry tickets for their staff and the use of a garage.
Traders (Tuners)
Tuners we are giving them a slightly better package on the above offer. As they are tuners, they should be showing potential customers what their car can do on track. Therefore, we are giving them one track pass in addition to the entry passes and garage.
The only reason tuners are getting a track pass and not normal traders is Body shops, interior trimmers etc can show the quality of their work by looking at the car, they do not need to show the performance of their cars on track.
If you are a trader and are interested in one of the above packages then please email or call me.
Camping
For club members and their friends they can camp inside the circuit on the Friday and Saturday night. You must buy a weekend ticket to get your camping pass. Please remember your friends WILL also require a weekend camping ticket even if they are sharing your tent.
Entry to the campsite will be from 5pm till late on the Friday.
Camping tickets include entry to the British racing and sports car club www.brscc .co.uk event on the Sunday. This event would be £12 on the gate but we are getting them at the advance price of £8, which is included in a camping weekend ticket.
Schedule for the day

I am not sure on that one but if the norm then possibly.
Probably best to ask in the morning, when you are getting your driver briefing.

Re: Latest National Day 2008 Information (15-09-08)
Well that is all the advance tickets ready to go to the post office tomorrow, so you should see them on Monday possibly Saturday.:)
Just a small reminder about camping, EVERYBODY will will require a camping ticket. This includes friend and partners even if they are sharing a tent with you, this is not my rules it was a stipulation set out by Mallory.
If we did not do this, then we would not have been able to camp on the Saturday night. The extra £8 is to cover entry to the Sunday event and non of that money is going to the club.

You geeza :D
Fair play though. If I rock up to Mallory next Friday and it's lashing it down with rain, and freezing cold, the tent may well end up staying in the boot all weekend.
