You might want to check if your car is OK for the track. I remember Dean (AngelPlayz) went to take his car on and they wouldn't let him because it wasn't race prepared. P.S if I can get my new brakes sorted by then I'll join you, If not I will deffo come down to support the VX's anyway.

As far as iam aware is a private booking so we wont have any problems (hopefully)

[VXJON]

Its been confirmed by the track that there will be no problems with using the vx

[edp]

Nice one lads! Looking forward to it!

VXJON, Who and how do I pay? Im interested in this event as it only down the road. At £70 its a steal. Is there any places left? Regards, Noble

No I went down and had a look and thought at the time that it wouldn't be wide enough for a "proper" track day as it only looked 8m wide at most.

Still, for £70 sounds like a bargain!!

As Noble said, how do I sign up?

Angelplayz, Noble, Email your details to Paul (lotus340r75@hotmail.com) I think there may be one or two slots left

[Angelplayz]

Yeah, just noticed the email address in the original post Emailed now.

[NOBLE]

Guys before I e-mail I want to know if I will be ok on track. It seems the Lotus lot are decent at all this track stuff. I have never been on track and dont know what to expect from the day at all. Is this day ok for a totaly track novice like me?

[LazyDonkey]

Noble you couldnt pick a better bunch of guys to have your first track session with - honestly. There will be plenty of volunteers on hand to help you out with lines, braking points etc etc. If you are 100% honest about nerves etc then someone will take you out for a passenger lap to get you into the swing of things. Also VXJON hasn't been on track before either so you won't be on your own

I have mailed Paul at the address above. Even If I get to go and not do lap after lap I just really want to know what these days are like so I can slowly build up a trackday experience for myself. I really want to do I driver tuition trackday. Boro is only down the road and at £70 it is a chance to have a good experience at a great price. Fingers crossed there is a place.

Wider than Cadwell Park then I would say.

[MY04VXT]

Might have a look along to this is there many of these a year? or just one? think its to early for me only had my vx for a month now

[VXJON]

Noble IIRC there is around 4 guys who have never been on track coming along to this event

[NOBLE]

Its ful now but im a reserve. I'd normally be at work that day so I have told Paul I can stay reserve right up to the week before basically. I only live 30mins away from the track

[MikeF]

one word of warning, there is almost no run off on that track ive been karting on there a couple of times, not somewhere I would fancy taking th VX to be honest

[SteveA]

They do an elise day which I fancy. I've also been carting on there a bit and agree with mike. I'd much rather fcuk it up in their elise than my vx.

[NOBLE]

Me and my blue turbo wil be there on the monday Paul has just confirmed that I have a spot. Just get to wax him the deposit. Well I better go get myself a helmet. The lads at work all ride bikes and said that if their spare ones fit I can use them. Will this be ok?
