Ahh that sucks about spectators, awesome photographer mate wanted to come along and get pictures....

Do you have to pay extra for passengers, can you hire helmets when there, do you only over take on the left, am I going to die? etc etc

get your own helmet mate, only about £30 from a local bike shop, thats what mine was anyway, and had the gold label saftey stuff and everytghing, if your planning on doing some trackdays youll get your moneys worth! plus you dont have to wear some flea bitten thing aswell! and yes if you go out you HAVE to wear a helmet, driver AND passenger.

I don't think there's much point me tracking the fiesta this time round, but I'll come up and watch since it's all of 15 minutes from my house. I'll bring my crash helment too if anyone wants a lend (my head is medium)

Ah! I thought you had. Thought I was going mad for a moment.

Just spoken with Motorsport Events. They can't let spectators out of the paddock area for insurance reasons plus they have a resident photographer. Helmets are available for hire on the day for a tenner plus a deposit. Helmets (on track days) don't have to meet any specific standard afaik, but at the end of the day it's your bonce.

Here's the list of of those who have booked:-

Robin - Dolly Sprint - CT
Jon & Di - Dolly Sprint - TDC/CT
Martin - Dolly Sprint - TDC/CT
Paul - Dolly Sprint - CT

Happy to take passengers so it is yes to all who asked and yes to Mart if he will take me in his Jony its a no to the driving thing I am afraid as I have had a bad experience of borrowed cars so sorry.

Just waiting for funds to grow in my account and then I will pay...

Thinking about coming to this one, not in a dolly though.Do you know what happens if you turn up a different car to what you put on the form or can you put a choice of cars down. If I do will drag Zombeh along in his dolly.

I'm not sure, best to ask when you phone up to book. I wouldn't have thought there'd be a problem though.


BTW my Yoko 032s turned up today.

I think you will find that they are very flexible on which car you use, they seem to want you to enjoy yourself.
The only thing they wont tolerate is bad driving, which is bloody good.

Now booked along with my brother, he will be in his Dolly and I will either be in my rx7 or Jensen Healey.

Good shout Neil!
