Trax Information & Discussion Thread

[The Boosh!]

Hello ClioSport

As if we've not got a busy enough show season with ClioSport Saturday (Which I hope you all come too!) and French Car Show, but we've also go Trax!

This show has got a love hate relationship on here, but it is what it is and it's usually a half decent day out.

The show is on Sunday 2nd September 2012!

Gates to the general public open at 9am, however if you're displaying your car on the club stand you will need to start arriving for between 7.30 and 8.00 in the morning (early start we know!).

If you want to be on the stand YOU NEED TO BUY YOUR TICKETS FROM US, NOT TRAX. YOU CANNOT GET ON THE STAND ON THE DAY IF YOU HAVEN'T PURCHASED TICKETS PRIOR.

For ticket information, see Brian's thread HERE.

Lastly, please come say hi. It's always nice to put an internet name to a face.

Any questions PM me direct, or post in here.

Cheers,
Luke

To join ClioSport at Trax on 2nd September this year, Please purchase your entry ticket(s) from the CS shop HERE and you will receive a car pass FREE!

Please do not buy your entry tickets direct from Trax, you will NOT receive a car pass. If you want to do track time, please buy here

In case you cant be bothered to go to another thread.

Hopefully the weather is better this year. I will be there in the c.s stand again.

 

[Elfy]

Think I may coem this year with you lot, I parked the clio in the car park last year as I was not sure if I wanted to go or not so turned up late.

Been there every other year though

Seconded on the weather. Think I will be on the CS stand this year for the first time.

I'm hoping for rain.

Umbrellas will be available from the CS marquee

 

[Adam.P]

I'll be coming this year, will be my first year.

If you need any help setting up or anything, I'm only 7 miles down the road and more than happy to give you a hand.

 

[Brian]

Any help is appreciated.

Not sure on staff attendance numbers yet either

Let me know nearer the time if you need.

 

[domsclio182]

When is the latest you would advise to book track time,missed out last year

 

[Harpham]

Is Trax actually worth it? Never actually been to it.

 

[daveski]

Its a laugh. Much, much bigger than FCS and is normally an end of season type thing.

 

[Harpham]

If our local lot go, then I'll come along too. Not as fussed though tbh. Looks a bit Chavvy from what I've seen LOL.

CSS (and FCS) is my priority.

 

[daveski]

It is a bit chavvy. Been for the last couple of years and will be there this year, its a day out and there's stuff to look at.

 

[MichaelGrimes]

id love to go, but if i wana get my car on the stand, i gotta leave at like 5 in the monring coz im in the south east!

 

[seb]

I prefer it to fcs tbh as I find more stuff to look/laugh at etc. I enjoy any event cs attends though. All are fun!

 

[Owen]

Too true Seb. Had a good laugh at last years, will definitely be there again this year.

 

[eddie5461]

I will be coming down, this will be my first one, (apart from when i went with my brother and his saxo about 12 years ago) has it changed much?

Would like to be on the stand with you guys, Ive got a mk2 1.2, is that ok or do you just want sports on show?

Yep, completely fine, all Clio's are welcome (even non Clio's tbh)

 

[Vicky.]

I like Trax, more as Seb said to laugh at. Trax is probably my favourite one of the year just due to the camping and the show day banter.

I've been for the last few years but not sure if I'll be able to get it off of work this year .

 

[Adamm.]

I have only been trax the last 2 years and I think its a pretty good event especially if you like to see a bit of sideways action.

10 min drive makes it a bonus too.

 

[eddie5461]

nice, i'm looking forward to it. should be a good day.

 

[cliosport667]

I should be there. Been last 3 years and have enjoyed it everytime.

 

[Brian]

Trax has always been the last show of the year for CS, so is the last chance to show off your years progress. Always get around 100 people at Trax too, which is nice

I think I'll probably come this year, was quite a laugh last year despite the rain! Vicky are you doing camping again if you are going?

 

[Jon.G]

When is the cut off date for club stand parking?

 

[Brian]

When is the cut off date for club stand parking?

Monday 16th July, it seems very early but we have to meet the cut-off date to submit the ticket order to the organisers.

There's sometimes a chance that tickets/car passes can be obtained after this date but that can't be gauranteed.

 

[Jon.G]

Cheers Brian. I knew it was early as it is every year. Just couldn't remember how early it was, Thanks.

 

[Adamm.]

Nearly forgot about buying the ticket, just purchased now along with a new sticker .

I hope I hadn't already ordered one lol.

 

[Brian]

3 and a bit weeks left for ticket and car pass pre-orders

 

[Jon.G]

Just bought mine

This + Edition 38 + My birthday = Winner Weekend.

 

[Adam_vxR]

What's actually at traxs ? Is just like FCS but different location ? Where bouts is it held ? May be up for going as only been to FCS the last few years never thought about traxs :/

 

[Brian]

Full details here http://www.traxshows.co.uk/

I've always felt Trax has more to see because they throw more money at the show. I don't know if this is true or not it's just my opinion.

Trax is a Silverstone

Tickets purchased through the ClioSport shop include a car pass

[dean406]

I will be coming first timer haha not my fault blame the army lol but hopefully make a good inpression with the mk3 clio btw is it ok to have a NON clio on the stand as i got a mate coming but owns a vauxhall lol, if anyone could shed some light on this would be good, cheers

 

[The Boosh!]

Yes that's fine.

 

[Brian]

Just over 1 week left to purchase your tickets from us!

http://www.cliosport.net/shop/show-tickets/75-trax-entry-ticket.html

 

[Harpham]

What happens if you miss this deadline? I'm still unsure whether to attend or not...

 

[Adamm.]

Think it just means you wont be on the car stand unless other people back out and sell there car pass.

 

[Brian]

After the deadline there's a few options.

1. We will have a very limited amount of spare entry tickets and passes, allocated first come first serve.

2. After that, we always have spare car passes, you can still purchase general entry on the day.

3. If you miss out on both of the above, you will either have to hope someone sells their ticket/car pass

4. Last and final option, you can pay entry on the day, walk in and get a car pass from us on the CS stand, then go back out and get your car.

Hopefully with all these options, it shouldn't deter anyone from attending

 

[Adamm.]

Oops I was wrong then lol.
