Just a heads up for all you 'detailers' out there.

We will be awarding a best detailed car award amongst a host of other prizes for various other categories.

So make sure your pride and joy is looking sweet on the day!

I'm not sure I have time to book @Scrooge in for mine....pants.

How do cars that are on track all day get judged (not that I'm going for the detailed prize :smile

Much excitement, only a few weeks to go! Although I have a lot to sort on the car before then

Same here engine + gearbox oil change, plugs, tyres, camber bolts and alignment. Its my 30th next weekend so will doubt much will get done on it.

I'll get the oils changed first. If I don't get chance do the tyres, I'll just have to put up with them on track

A good point well made!

If anyone going on track wants to enter then they can park up with the other entrants once the track time finishes. I will leave the judging for the show and shine until last knockings.

I can't wait to get my hands on it again dude!

 

[Cub.]

It needs it. You'll kill me when you see it at CSS. All your hard work undone by a hamfisted bear

I'd like you to work your magic on it before OrigineRS ideally mate. Will PM

 

[Welsh.Dan]

I'd like to get mine buffed for the day but I'll not get time. A quick clean will suffice.

The 200 odd mile journey will make it filthy anyway!

Excited and nervous.... Last track day my PS pump failed.

If it breaks I'll just get drunk and deal with it in morning [emoji41]

There will also be the added bonus of plenty of people about to help if something does go awry!

 

[Typhoon]

I'm bringing my Mrs, as I'm sure many others will.

Don't rub it in mate.

 

[Cub.]

Don't rub it in mate.

What happened to wining and dining me? I know where I stand now. I'll just be in the corner of the field somewhere, with my crate of Strongbow.

[DaveDreads]

There will be a fair few women there mate, what do you think about that?

I'm frightened, I going to hide in my tent.

Im mega tempted to take the C1 on track, rather than the Fiesta. It would be hilarious. Rolling about like a ship...

If your afternoon, please do it! I won't be slowest on track then [emoji41]

 

[Matthew]

Has anyone sorted insurance for the track day? Awaiting a quote from Morris. Think it was about £90 when I did one a few months back.

 

[Cub.]

I get mine with Greenlight as part of my normal insurance

 

[Matthew]

Took out a multi-car policy with Admiral this time (for the Fiesta and C1) and they dont offer it

I'll be back with Greenlight though when it finshes in April..

 

[Welsh.Dan]

When I was getting quotes greenlight said it wasn't included but you pay 40 odd quid per event. Just call up and add it to policy for the day.
With brentacre now and they don't offer anything track wise.

 

[STEVE.M]

It's the Outer Circuit Steve see here for map: #550

Dogs are a big no I'm afraid. The circuit is quite open in some places, so it would be to risky for both dog and drivers alike in case it broke free at some point.

And yes attendance is mandatory for all members, unless we get a doctors note / letter from your mum. :tongueclosed:

Thanks Nik,I just booked the afternoon session.I assume there was a spot available as entries & payment are still being accepted.

 

[sburrell93]

I've got a small crack on my front windscreen, way over passenger side so not near the drivers eyeline. Whats Javelin's policy on stuff like this? Don't fancy coming all the way down to get told I'm not getting on track but it's such a small thing to have to pay out my windscreen excess for

I'd ring them to check, but I did Anglesey with them and mine has a large crack passenger side where the tax disc would be. They didn't say anything then. As long as it would MOT fine (which mine has and would) I can't see it being a problem tbh.

 

[Sunglasses_Ron]

Just to give you all a heads up, there will not be any alcohol for sale at Blyton over the weekend. So if you're staying for the evening festivities don't forget to bring some booze or be prepared to pop out to get some during the day.

If you'd like to buy the admin (ie me) a drink, Lambs spiced rum will do the trick

:wink::up::beers:

 

[DaveDreads]

Just bought my ticket, might actually be able to come better equipped to this camping trip seeing as I won't have the dog with me, back seat full of booze!

 

[Ol’ Tarby]

You tracking Dave?

 

[DaveDreads]

Sadly not, car needs new tyres, new ball joints, an oil change and my exhaust is held on with zip ties.

 

[Cub.]

I'm not sure how I'm going to fit all of my camping stuff, and track stuff including 4 spare wheels and alcohol into the flame mobile.

Oh, what's that, I don't need to worry about alcohol. That's very kind of you @Typhoon

 

[Cub.]

Bring your helmet, can passenger in mine and shout abuse at Ron.

 

[DaveDreads]

Will do, never been in a S/C Clio.

 

[Welsh.Dan]

Will do, never been in a S/C Clio.

Me neither [emoji17]

Much sadness

 

[Sunglasses_Ron]

Only 3 afternoon track slots remaining!

 

[Ol’ Tarby]

Anyone travelling up from stoke/going past stoke on the Saturday morning?

 

[STEVE.M]

Only 3 afternoon track slots remaining!

Thanks for confirming I got in before it sold out.
I will have to sort out my bumpstops for this weekend,as the front tyres scuff the arch liners before they come into play when pushed.A secondary effect is that there is too much roll causing the rears to c**k a leg.

 

[STEVE.M]

That`s silly PC gone mad.Can I say f**k me,my dog c***s his leg against a tree?
