Knockhill 5th july OPL. (Privately booked)

[LiamR172]

Hi all, I know its pretty short notice but hopefully some of you can attend.

Mike, the Scottish area rep on 197.net has arranged a trackday(evening) at knockhill on the 5th of july.

The 5th is a friday and its from 6pm - 8pm.
At the moment theres 17 confirmed, out of 30 spaces.

Booking the track privately has a couple of advantages, the main one being more tracktime.

Open Pit Lane (OPL) means you can go on and off the track as much as you like throughout the 2 hour session.

The short notice part...

Because we are booking it ourselves, Its going to be £75 per person, this includes passengers/other drivers.

Mike will need the money AT THE VERY LATEST, on the 19th of this month! Which is a week tomorrow.

Thanks,
Liam.

Would be great if between the 2 clubs we manage to fill this ourselves, would really give us hope that we can do it again. Private trackdays at Knockhill ftmfw!!!!!

 

[LiamR172]

Yes John i agree it would be good.

I know i'd much rather spend 75 quid for 2 hours than 65 quid for a hot hatch day!

And this way we dont have all sorts of maniacs driving around

 

[Djw John]

Well mostly.....

 

[M26]

Spectators allowed?

 

[Djw John]

Be naked. And then yes.

 

[LiamR172]

Nobody interested in this then?

 

[Adam.]

Nobody interested in this then?

​Give it more than half an hour...

 

[LiamR172]

I figured that its had almost 100 views and 0 interest.

 

[mjm3043]

Stick my name down for this. Can give you the money anytime.

 

[Fraser.J.]

Well mostly.....

Nice car that

 

[Djw John]

Never been a big fan of Ford Mavericks tbh.....




Liam - Gaz is gonna come along, can you PM him the details and get Mike to add him on the 197 list please?

No chance. I dont want him near me!! Haha.

What details does he need? Payment?

 

[Djw John]

Yeah payment details, best if you deal with the Cs ones and mike deals with the 197 ones I reckon.

 

[MG cup]

What's the craik with cancelling incase I can't make it?

 

[LiamR172]

Ill check with Mike and get back to you!

Edit: You will get half of your money back if you pull out.

How many days notice is required to get half back?

 

[LiamR172]

I dont know mate, but why are you so concerened about pulling out?

If you dont think you can make it then dont put your name down.

 

[Djw John]

We'll ask mike and find out Morgan, take it you don't know your shifts yet?

 

[MG cup]

We'll ask mike and find out Morgan, take it you don't know your shifts yet?

Whos mike?

Exactly, I work adhoc and have to book holidays in 5 day blocks. Plus you can only have so many doctors appointments a year without suspicion.

 

[Djw John]

Especially on a Friday night!!

Mike is 200 gordini on clio197 who is organising all of this, we're tagging on to show the mk3 boys how to do it

 

[MG cup]

Yeah day or night doesn't matter much, what's important is I'm on dry land that day.

I am trying to find if there's a day on saturday too then I can make it an overnighter to warrant the trip down and warrant booking holidays too

 

[LiamR172]

I did ask Mike and that was the reply i got.

Sorry if its not to your liking

 

[Mark_P]

this sounds awesome for popping my track day cherry, unfortunately (well, you know what I mean) I'll be getting married 18hrs later so may need to focus on that a little! Saying that, if we can work it out, the future missus would want to drive too!

 

[LiamR172]

Congrats, but get your money sent over Mark. Nevermind the wedding

 

[LiamR172]

Anyone else keen for this?

 

[Dan.G]

Was hoping I would be able to christen the new car on track at this, but looks like the welding work wont be getting done until the week after . So i wont be hitting the track until the end of may.

 

[Fraser.J.]

Track days on the 5th of July! Pretty see if its ready in may you'll manage for July

 

[Dan.G]

Haha some reason I read it as may! In that case I'll look at my shifts and try and get days off sorted.

 

[Beef-Mc]

No restriction on what car you use, considering it but don't wanna look like a dick in a 1.6.

 

[Djw John]

Still be faster than dan in his mx5

 

[Mark_P]

This would be by far the best track day for you then! No 800bhp Evos, etc doing silly speeds

*says the guy who's never done a track day *

 

[Djw John]

You're right though mark, defo a great one for a first timer

 

[LiamR172]

Youll be fine in your 1.6 mate!

 

[Dan.G]

Still be faster than dan in his mx5

Pfft we'll see! Spent the day setting up the suspension set up so now its cornering like it should be.

Iirc 'he who shall be last, shall be sideways and smilling'

 

[SeanTrophy]

Is there still spaces for this? I'm keen to lose my track virginity!

 

[HickiN]

What's the craik with cancelling incase I can't make it?

I'll take your place.. I have just paid off a bill/holiday so dont have the cash right now... So book away and i'll take it if you cant make it..

LiamR172 - unless i can pay at a later date if places left over?

 

[LiamR172]

I believe Mike has arranged this with knockhill.

If we dont fill the 30 spaces then knockhill will advertise the remaining spaces on facebook.

So if you cant afford it right now then keep an eye on the knockhill facebook page and grab a space when they advertise it?

Its not really worth the journey down and van rental for two hours just now, If I get my own tow car by then I might book up closer to the time, spaces usually become available anyway.
