You won't need insurance...

Probably.

@lee M4RSH is bringing his missus, they can keep each other company.

Famous last words...

Haha, well that's at least one person she can moan to about how childish we all are with our silly toy cars

What's the excess like on track insurance?

 

[MarkCup]

What's the excess like on track insurance?

Work on it being 10% of the insured value and you won't be too far adrift.

 

[Nickw88]

What's the excess like on track insurance?

Between £1250 and £1600 depending on which one I pick.

 

[Nickw88]

How many are likely to actually be on the track this year? Realistically I won't be pushing all that hard as a) it'll be my first time, and b) I'd like to have some rubber and pad left at the end of the day.

If the on-track numbers are likely to be fairly low, I'll probably just chance it to be honest and put the £200 towards some consumables afterwards

£200/day is about on the money for a TD in the UK.

premiums that include TD cover are hugely up in price this year as some underwriters have left the market

CSF track time is about as safe and respectful as it's possible to get on a track day

TBH that's sort of what I was hoping/expecting. I watched your YT video over the weekend from one of the previous years and it looked quite relaxed.

I know you can never say never and I've not been on track but from attending and watching the last couple of years it's been at Anglesey, I'd say chances of something happening are pretty low. There's some times during the day that there's only a handful of cars going round.

Depends if M8VE ROJ is going

He'll be bullying people out of the way this year to give Werthers to kids in the beigemobile

This..

It's possibly the most civilised track day you'll ever attend.

Everyone is respectful and observant, if you're faster than someone else they'll move and try to tag on to the back of you.

I think it says a lot about the standard of driving of a club when you're able to run passenger laps without getting held up by traffic. Which helps when you're running wets on a dry track 😂



You'll find most folk are happy to help if you have an issue.
Highly recommend insurance and some instruction if it's your first time 👍

The circuit normally has an instructor on hand, if they don't I'm happy to hop in with you for a few laps

 

[Sunglasses_Ron]

For the track day I've changed the car I'll be driving so the form I filled in will be incorrect. Does that particularly matter until signing on? Or do I need to do something now to rectify? Thanks

It won’t be an issue mate. Just pop and see Nik first thing.

That's definitely the kind of vibe I'm hoping for so all sounds good.

And thank you, might end up taking you up on that offer, we'll see. Will have a watch of your video later, too!

Thanks mate

 

[Krarl]

I think I've had 1 or 2 issues with people on CSF trackdays and even then they're very minor issues. Typically it's someone that barely comes on here and uses it as a cheap trackday

Just make sure your driveshafts aren't fucked, but even if they are I'm sure they'll be fine in a straight line

Just keep your eyes on your mirrors into "rocket" for @Flob or @Sheila’s’ Wheels’ outbraking themselves up the inside of you as you turn into the corner

What you got mate 👀

I suspect I'll be approaching that crest at well over a tonne (or could be, with some balls), so I'll be having to make sure I don't outbrake myself tbh

Classic place to outbreak yourself.

I've seen some go straight across the grass there and down the embankment on the other side 😅

definitely didnt ever do that in the Cruise Missile.

Did I @Flob / @Krarl 👀

 

[Nickw88]

I'm starting to rethink the need for track insurance...

Your da on toast

Nasty that is mar mate

 

[KitsonRis]

I will try and keep the red barge out the way as I’m sure I won’t be the fastest in it. I’m looking forward to be able to drive it faster and harder than I can/allowed on the roads.
Ironically it is the most powerful car I own…from new….210bhp back in 1989.
Tempted to get a set of better brake pads for the front to help.

Int he horrible eh

I'll be in Germany.

I'll be in Germany.

So will I.


See you there

Which is exactly why, I recommend insurance 😂

£200 seems fair. 😆
