Guys.

We have been given the opportunity of having a Noble Track Day based at Rockingham Motor Speedway on the 13th October. we will need about 20-25 cars to participate to make the event worthwhile. The curcuit that we can use will be the National one and not any part of the Oval. Please can you let me know if you are interested in coming along, the rough price will be around £175 for the day, but this depends upon the interest.

Many thanks

Stuart

Sorry, mine's got the wrong kinda sump.


Incidentally, is there any truth in the rumour that cars which have NOT been on track can sell 2nd hand for up to 10% more?

Dan - why was Cannonball cancelled?

17th looks OK for me, and hopefully the car will be fully back to normal by then, so count me in.

It's a bit sensitive at the moment. But basically there has been some legal action over the name 'Cannonball' between 'Cannonball 03' (the PH sponsored one) and 'Cannonball Run Europe'. The legal action has led to 'Cannonball 03' being cancelled, it's bank account being emptied and no refunds for the entrants.

Would love to join in the fun - if R36 is ready and run-in by the 17th. Any chance Stuart??

If not, may pop along as a spectator.

Cheers, Mark

Lost a LOT of money.

Equivilent of around:
- 13 Trackdays
- 4500 Miles of petrol
- 1300 Pints of beer (but I'm not bitter )
- A week in the Maldives with the Mrs

I'm not overly gutted about the dosh, it's more that I was REALLY looking forward to the event. But anyway, now instead I can spend the week doing Brunters V-MAX III, two days at Spa, this Noble trackday and Cadwell Park.

Just be to the maldives - 4 days in dubai and 10 in the maldives staying at Jumeriah Beach and Reethi Beach cost about 4k....... - this didn't incluide another 1.5k on diving and other expenses!

Dan - bugger.

By any chance did you pay by credit card? If you did you'd have a claim against the CC company and you'll get it back, if not then it'll be through the courts for you

Really sorry to hear about it - it looked great fun!

No, I bloody paid by cheque so no recourse. Will certainly be pursuing it to get money back, but will keep my powder dry at the moment relating to the manner this will happen.

oopps sorry - I sort of figured that you might think that a Holiday in the Maldives was more expensive therefore it might not have been an option......
