CSF2023?

[bass_direct]

We enquired about his place a few years ago. We visited the site and were pretty much laughed out the door when we told them what we wanted to do and how many people would be attending. We aren’t anywhere near big enough fish for them to bother with.

Ah that's a shame. Nice little venue with a central section for the show aspect.

Does Bruntingthorpe still exist?

Jeez thats a blast from the past. Went there in my teens on camp with the air cadets 🤣🤣

 

[Ph1 Tom]

Not sure if it has been mentioned but Anglesey is an option. I'm a member there and can help liaise if needs be.

Sort of but also not really from what I know - I don't believe they would do club events like they did 15-20 years ago.

I went on a supercar experience day about 10 years ago and had a right laugh trying to pedal an Ariel Atom round in the rain. Spent more time going sideways than in a straight line 🤣

Ahh reminds me of FCS 2005 there.

I'd just bought some second hand OZ F1 wheels with mismatched tyres and didn't want to put a new set on for the track session (Bruntingthorpes surface ate tyres IIRC). To combat the chronic understeer I ended up steering like Alonso in the Renault F1 of the same year 😂

Lift off oversteer and the marbles finally got me in the end.

I'm surprised at mallory parks reply tbh as it's quite a small venue really. That's a shame

For 2005 the film quality is top notch sir. "smooth" at the end haha.

The way they looked down their noses at us I’d rather burn the 15 odd grand they wanted to hold an event there than give them a single penny.

 

[DaveDreads]

Looks like we'll being going down the CSF car meet route with a separate track day after all.

 

[Ol’ Tarby]

I know a decent ale house we could all meet up at?

No?


Ok

 

[Mr Squashie]

Couple of laps of the M25 then meet at South Mimms services for a Burger King.

Apparently its a brilliant track too.

 

[RustyMojo]

Bruntingthorpe is still there but sadly they don’t do track days etc anymore. It’s now a defleet and prep centre for Manheim. They even got rid of all the old Cold War aircraft, much to the dismay and public protest. What a shame.

Went to visit there recently on a whim as I was on holiday in the area.

Banging, and I mean banging, Cider place 2 minutes away too.

 

[RustyMojo]

Not to mention those who don’t do the track day could enjoy a proper drive out. The roads around the snowdon area are mind blowing! It’s just a long way from f**king everywhere!

Cracking track. A bit of a trek though, but worth it.

Dibs on sharing with @MarkCup (and the gloves. no gloves, no deal.)

On a sunny day, IMO it’s one of the best tracks in the UK, with the exception of Oulton.

I had a day there in the flamer and it was awesome. The views and track itself are top notch. Here are a few photos and a vid;








There is an off at 14mins 15 seconds or so… showing how direzzas don’t like the smallest bit of rain 🤣

Although it was a bit foggy in the morning. I thought the photographer was taking the piss when he sent this over, but no, it was that bad 😂🤣

Watching vid now x

 

[Sir Nancy Flowers]

Its a good 6.5 hours away from me personally. It will be more for others, im sure.

But, id be more than happy to make the journey if its suitable for us.

Over to you @Nik 👌
