following on from our very well attended test day at curborough im looking to do a bigger event at cadwell park in february this will be a proper track day with unlimited access to the circuit all day
every z cars owner is welcome but there will be a cost involved this time
it will be £110 for the full day
i need to take bookings for this early and we will need the money up front (this is so i can guarantee to cover cost of track hire etc)
if you are interested then it will be a good time to get some shake down laps in with your racer or just blast round in your road car
if i know numbers before hand i will make sure there are more z cars staff on hand and we can help with setups etc

Count me in and my friend too. Let me know when you want the money and i will get it to you. At least that'll be my deadline now for finishing the car.

Thanks

Tom

great ive had a phone message from the two guys in the new v tec the blue one that was at curbrough they are coming and he is going to race next year as well
we maybe need to start thinking about getting everyone to join the BARC north western club as you need to be a member to race
also if you havent done an ards course what about trying to get a group booking and see if i can get it cheaper get back to me with thoughts on that

I've talked to Chris at ZCars and spectators will be welcome. Its going to be run as a shared trackday so any other drivers wanting to book are welcome as well.

It will be run with an open pitlane so you will be able to lap all day if you want to. No timing allowed though as it's a trackday.

At some point it will sell out so 'book early' as they say!

Oops.. Sunday February 24 2008
It will be run along the usual trackday lines. Signing on will be approx 08.30 -09.00hrs followed by a Safety Briefing and then tracktime! If you miss this then it will be a lunchtime sign on and safety brief with no refund! :)

So it will be an early start for some I'm afraid :P

Nope!!

Usual circuit type rules are: payment in advance, changes may be made and refunds only if its all cancelled a couple of weeks before. I'm guessing it will only be the short circuit for the price it is and so 'the mountain' will be out of use.

A bit rough I know but that's the way it always seems to be. I think it's very rare to miss out though and I've booked already!

I've just done a trackday there on sunday the 11th and it was the full circuit including the mountain. Quality circuit, just wish it was in my mini. :lol:

Now the pressure is on! I'm not sure if I'll be done in time. I think I need 100 hours when I've got the finished shell and the kit sat ready to go but that won't be until mid January.

When do you need the track day money by Chris?

Good dedication from Tom to be confident to be finished, well done mate.

If anyone wants to start a list for the ARDS course for a possible cheaper deal count me in (I don't get on here very often otherwise I would run the list).

Darren.
