    05th - Trackday @ Brands Hatch

    Hi all,

    Time to get the ball rolling with the first of many (hopefully!) UK trackdays in 2010 - It's with our friends at TrackAction-Online again, at Brands Hatch (Indy circuit) on Friday 5th February.

    It's an open pitlane format trackday, 105dB is the noise limit, and I'm sure Steve will pop along soon with track time details.

    He's also sorted us a good price again @ £125 per car/driver, £35 for extra drivers, £10 for passengers, and £20 for a garage. There's also free instruction available for any drivers that want it.

    And as a nice touch, if we can get 10+ bookings, he'll throw a couple of garages in for free.

    Payment to be made here: http://cart.trackaction-online.co.uk and although that shows a price of £150, if you add your name to this thread before payment, myself or Steve will PM you the discount code.

    Any questions, by all means please ask.

    Hi fellas and thanks for shouting up to come along to another one of our days out

    We will, as usual, be limiting numbers to make sure that queueing is kept to a minimum so booking sooner rather than later would be good. Having said that, I would guess you'll get away with early Jan.

    I'll PM each of you the booking info and discount codes.

    It shouldn't be though, as Tom and I helped him take the engine and crane back to his dads place over a month ago. The lot is literally sitting infront of the car. Eug is just a lazy ****.

    Get ya names down folks

    You've been whinging on about a lack of southern location trackdays of late, so here's an ideal chance for the 'locals' (and of course, anyone else) to blow the winter dust off your cars.

    There will be a Spa + 'Ring trip come Easter/May time (details to follow), and hoping to squeeze in a Snetterton trackday in-between Brands & that as well. If not, for sure there'll be a summertime Snetterton trackday

    Suhki, for the sake of a ton & pony, you'll be missing out mate, and if there is any shakedown 'testing' to be done, surely you'd rather carry that out at a 'local' track where it's not gonna cause you a headache getting the car back home (should something go pete tong), as opposed to getting it home from across the channel.

    Aii mate, it'll bring back happy memories of that eventful day

    No prob's with spectating, and pit-garages will be available; either a score a pop, or a couple of them for gratis if we can muster together 10+ bookings.

    I want to do the Spa/Ring trip dude, without question.

    I'm not suggesting for one minute that the trip will be the first big outing if you will after the conversion...I'm not that stupid

    In between now and April, I have a wedding to pay for, a substantial 'comittment' as you can imagine...I'd rather fill the car up, drive down and catch up with everyone...saves me a few quid and keeps the wife-to-be sweet about me ****ing off with you lot to Germany & Belgium for a few days

    It was cheaper for me to buy a set of crutches and 2nd handy crusty plaster cast than Brands and still get to show up

    If only another month later

    Really cant wait to get the Cup car sorted for Brands, need to bleed the brakes and sort the cooling out as i havent touched it since ND, might need to invest in some "road legal" tyres for the 15" wheels.

    Also may attempt to paint the rear quarter... or the whore car.
