VMax event for Porsche 911 owners

[Isysman]

From the 911uk site but the more the merrier I'd say. Also looking for a 918/CGT or two to turn up as a nice cherry for the cake? Anyone interested? Already have 42 cars

http://911uk.com/viewtopic.php?t=97711&postday...

Date: First week of March
Venue: Top Gear Test Track - Dunsfold air strip Surrey (where the middle classes call it 'sorrey'
Price: £295 per car.

Each car can have 1 passenger who can also drive. Therefore the price is per car, not per driver.

Sadly no spectators (other than the passenger) allowed. No admittance on the day.

Calling GTR Nick.

Where are you mate?! Thought this would be right up you and your beasts street.

[Isysman]

Any more PHers up for this? Are there not CGT guys on this forum?

Happy to see how quick the double century C4 is good for!

Ooof, sounds fun but £300 seems a bit steep, or is that the going rate for a Vmax event?

[Crimp]

£300!!!
Cost me that in juice to get there.

Is this something that happens often or a once a year situation?

[Scott Parker]

I'm already going and its actually £395

Think there's 4 events over the summer. Contact [e-mail] who runs the VMAX events with Craig.

Its only £400, wont break the bank same as the rest of the Vmax events and pretty much invitation only.... Not any old crap can run

Quite wise old bean. Imagine the shame of Porsches latest and greatest GT3 having its doors blown off by 993, 996 and 997.

Penny pinching over £395? Really?!

I actually think when I saw the price it just made realise I dont have any desire to try and max out my car and would be better spending it on 3 trackdays.

I would have much preferred to drive just the Top gear track instead.

Does any organiser offer this?

You wont max it out anyway as its only a 1 mile runway. Don't quote me on this but I think theres a bit more to the day than just the runway!

What track days are you going on? Brands GP and Silverstone GP with a decent operator are circa £400

[5517]

I dont mind spending that for those tracks.

I live 10 mins from Oulton Park and can get on for £130 most of the time
