Hi Everyone,

I am considering a repeat of the track day I ran on Jan 5th this year.
A bunch of you came so you will know the drill.
There would be some changes:

A Sunday slot is available (21 January), so I think it is worth the extra cost. A few people had problems attending this year because it was on a Thursday during the Christmas break.
To keep the cost around $150 each, the number of cars would be increased to around 30. (Numbers & costs not exact yet).
The format would remain the same - start off in batches to avoid crowding at the start, then relax into open track.
One car per entry.
First in, first served.
All drivers must sign indemnity forms.
Recovery vehicle and track management included. No magpie. No timing.

This year was a huge success, and I have had many people ask me to do another. Before I slap down over four grand, I want to guage the interest.
Please reply in-thread if you are *seriously* up for it. Also indicate if the previous Thursday would suit better, at a slightly reduced cost.

Cheers
R

Might wanna check that date Richard. 21 Jan I believe is the day of the A1GP race in Taupo, at which I believe MANY PHers will be at.... I'm already booked for the A1, so I can't make this date.... if it's any other date I'm a dead cert

Well spotted George. I should have read more carefully (thought it was the 5th again).

Unfortunately I'll be in Taupo as well on 21st. Could do any day other than 20th - 22nd.

DARN - Slaps head.

OK - I will look for another date then - will either have to be later in the year or during the week.

Will report back in a day or two.

Cool Richard Sorry to be the bearer of bad news

Through the week is ok, although not ideal as for a good trackday I'm happy to take a day's leave. Weekend is preferable and I'm happy to pay a premium for this but it's not essential. As I've said, apart from A1GP weekend I'm free as a bird and you can count me as a definite starter, even if I have to bring the SpaceWagon!

Count me in, but not on the 21st as I'll be at Taupo too.
