60 places for Sunday.
PH's who want to do both days is not a problem I know several do. Please note - There will again be dedicated sessions for only on the Saturday (non drifters as previously can take advantage of the quiet track conditions when the drifters are on track) we hope to make some small changes to ensure the cones stay in place - Filled with concrete should ensure that they are given a wide berth :laughs:

I will be peeved if i continually have to re-type the information for two reasons
1. I have to retype it all again and if I have to do that for all the entries it's a headache
2. It greatly increases the risk of an error transfering the information and that could lead to problems on the day - it's your data and your responsibility to make sure it is correct
On reciept I will add your details to the database and respond with an email detiling where to send the cheque or Postal order to Note - PAYMENT by Cheque/Postal Order (in £ sterling please) payable to Service Funds RAF Marham - No cash by post please. I will confirm reciept of the payment.
Please do not send cheque just beacuse you've been before and know my address - wait for my email confirming I have your details or it could all go pear shaped.

RAF Marham Trackday organiser said:
The track uses a combination of the airfield's main runway and taxiways
resulting in a track that is around 3 miles long consisting of wide, smooth
tarmac and concrete with lots of safe run offs. There will be approx 1 mile
of the main runway in use with many sweeping curves and chicanes along the
taxiways.
The Track Days will run from around 9am to 4:30pm on both days, split into
either 30 or 60-minute sessions depending on numbers of participants. All
the necessary facilities, such as toilets, catering, drinks, marshalling,
medical and fire cover to support the event will be on hand. The atmosphere
and event is relaxed, enjoyable and safe.
All participants who will be going onto the track, either as driver or
passenger, will need a helmet. Race suits are not needed, but natural fibre
clothes with full sleeves and legs are strongly recommended. Cars must be
safe and in road-worthy condition, with normal seat belts as a minimum, and
a fire extinguisher secured safely in the car (a plumbed in system is not
necessary). If the car is driven to the event then it must have valid
insurance, road tax and MOT. For those driving open or soft top cars,
irrespective of whether the hood is raised or lowered, it is strongly
recommended that appropriate extra rollover protection is properly fitted to
the car, unless the car's windscreen structure was specifically designed to
provide such protection.
Please note, due to lack of space, only vehicles driving on the event, and
tow vehicles where applicable, will be allowed access - all passengers must
arrive in participating vehicles.
Note we now have to implement a noise limit to reduce impact on local
residential areas. No unsilenced exhaust systems will be permitted. A
noise limit of 105 dB will be enforced (measured at 0.5m and 45 degree angle
from exhaust exit at 2/3 of max rpm). Cars exceeding this limit will not be
permitted on track.
Sharing a car is permitted (i.e. alternating drivers between sessions) and
drivers are allowed to carry one passenger in the car onto the track, but
passengers must also comply with regard to helmet and clothing and be over
16 years of age. All drivers and passengers will be required to sign a
disclaimer. Spectating is not a possibility unless the individual is coming
to assist someone who is driving - the reason for this is quite simple - the
event insurance premiums and Health & Safety requirements go through the
roof astronomically otherwise, so by restricting it to participants and
assistants, it makes the event manageable, safer, more relaxed and enjoyable
and importantly keeps the cost down to you.
Prices:
Single day - £70 for car and first driver. Additional drivers or passengers
are an additional £10 each.
(e.g. Car and 1 driver, £70; Car and driver plus 1 additional driver or
passenger, £80; etc)
Full weekend pass - £120 for car and first driver for the weekend.
Additional drivers or passengers are an additional £10 each for the weekend.
(e.g. Car and 1 driver, £120; Car and driver plus 1 additional driver or
passenger, £130; etc)
Note every penny goes to charity. Payment must be made in advance, cheques
need to be made payable to Service Funds RAF Marham and of course signed and
dated. We are expecting a high number of participants so it is advisable to
get your name down early. Please note cheques will not be cashed until 2-3
weeks after 3 September, please ensure sufficient funds are available in
your account.
It is important to note that the track does attract stones. The track will
be swept prior to the event to minimise stones but if you drive directly
behind the car in front along the main straights your car could be subject
to stone chips. If you're worried about this it is advisable to fit bonnet
protection or drive with this in mind throughout the event.
PLEASE NOTE: RAF Marham is a front line operational air base and as such,
any operational commitments on that weekend would lead to the Track Day
being cancelled. This is however quite unlikely but prior notice will be
given and any money paid up front would be fully reimbursed.
Important:
For security reasons, every person entering the Base including all
passengers must be security vetted in advance. Everyone entering the Base
will be required to present Photo ID. Your forum organiser requires the
following details and payment from drivers and passengers by Thursday 3rd
September 2009 to allow time for the security team to check everyone. The
details required are listed below and it must be stressed that they will be
held in the strictest of confidence. Please note that after this date, only
changes to vehicle details will be permitted.

I'd like to do this but i work away alot and i won't know for definate if i will be at home to do this until approximately two weeks before the event. Is it worth me signing up? as i don't want to waste your time or mine.
Thanks.
Short answer - No not reallyThanks.
Long answer - Deadline is one month before the event and I have to process all the entries for three forums - I also have to be in possesion of payment and all relevant details by that point - the reason for this is because Marham is a live military base and the RAF MP's need to do security checks on all entrants and considering the event attracts close to 350 cars (450 people) they need a month to get them all done - So I really need a commitment that is firm 5 weeks before the event.
Book a holiday after all you are giving your employer 2 mths notice
