Nothing special - Just wondered if anyone else was going to be there as it seems that a fair number of folk from here have been on a fairly regular basis.

AFAIK it's a shared day, where anyone can go as opposed to a big corporate day.

Thanks DJ.
It appears that the next track day is February
next year and it's only for MGs.
Roll on spring time!

Do I assume from your user name that you will be taking a huge 4x4 round? Bit scary for the others on the track Rich...

It was just the vision of Cayennes and X5's careering round the track sounded appealing as a spectator but somewhat frightening if you were on track at the same time in say, an Elise Rich...

I came across a Cayenne at Bedford at the beginning of the year. Whilst not as quick as my (then) Caterham Superlight he was faster than most of the Elise's and TVRs (no seriously). Just goes to show the difference a profession driver makes (not for long though he got black flagged for scaring the other drivers


I'm doing the GT circuit this Saturday

MikeE - I'm there too on Sat - red Caterham x/flow. Are you in a Superlight? You'll probably pass me a few times as I'm never the quickest driver around, but I do enjoy myself

Percy,

I've got a Dayglo Yellow/Green Duratec powered R400 (see my profile).

If you haven't been to the GT circuit before it's fantastic, loads of different types of corner, a very long straight with an 80-90mph chicane in the middle and lots of run off. See you there!

cheers,
Mike

MikeE - nice car (loud even standing still) ! We'll certainly see you coming!
I've driven the GT circuit a few times now (this will be my 3rd visit this year), and yes I agree, it's a fantastic circuit.
Cheers

I'm there with some of the BM3W lot.

See you there. I will be sans CSL (it is having a pheasant removed...) and may lope down in the Merc.
