Title: Oulton Park - November 8th
Post by: Robin on August 11, 2013, 05:19:28 pm
I know it's a few months away but is anyone up for doing this trackday? I will certainly be doing it as its 12 miles from me so silly not to.

Hmm, what's the dates of Donnington?

Donnington is the 26th of October http://www.javelintrackdays.co.uk/trackday/ (http://www.javelintrackdays.co.uk/trackday/) I must say I'm torn myself. I'd love to do Donnington as I've never been before. It is nice not to go on your own though.  >:(

I've just booked Cadwell for the 26th of September through MSV so I wont be doing Blyton now Robin (and dont say do both)!

One of the many good things about the wonderful north!

Although saying that I'd really like to drive Brands Hatch one day but its a hell of a trek for me.

Hi Fellas

I'm one of the organisers for this event so just wanted to pop on and thank Robin for posting it and Sam for sending me the link!

Hope a few of you can make it along and as a bonus we are doing a deal for clubs where if five book using their own code then we will refund one place, ten bookings equals two refunds etc.  If you put the code "G40" in the comments box when booking I'll keep an eye on the numbers and we can draw a name out of a hat if there we get past five bookings from on here.

Please note that if you already have a different code as one of our previous drivers you have to choose which one to use, you don't get two goes at it unless you book two spaces :D

If anyone has any questions about the day please shout up and I'll do my best to answer them.

Cheers

Steve H

We used to run one a year at Brands but struggled to make it pay, hard to get the numbers in and to cover the costs you had to run almost as many cars on the 1.2 mile Indy Circuit as we run on the 2.8 mile International layout at Oulton  :(

Running trackdays is one of those games where you can easily lose more money than you make and we only do a few days a year for a bit of fun so we knocked Brands on the head.
