17th May (Tuesday) we are going to do the sprint track day!!!

Another Curborough day?
It will be in May time!!

Same fun as always and fingers crossed we get a warm day instead of the wash out like last time!!!

im hoping to see the usual suspects there...

but this is going to be open to all on the forum!

it should be the full track like last time also!

Also, this again is a possible...
who would be up for a BBQ at the track (If we are allowed)

saves going to the pub's ect!

This is a great day out guys and a real fun track to blast a coupe round!!!!!

to start the list off..

1. Marco20vt + BBQ + Mrs Marco20vt
2. Mario + BBQ
3. Lashes/Adam/pink boy + BBQ = Mrs Lashes
4.


Thanks
smile

Is this near Brum? If so only a few hours away for me. Would be able to make the first two weekends of the month but working the second two.

Will see what we can do Alan, we are waiting to hear back from the track owners.

Yes its the one near brum. A great little track to test your handling and would be a nice way of testing your current set ups for those going to spa in June.

This is a sprint track for those who have never been and it means there will be only one car on the track at any one time. It is in the middle of a field with very few places you will go off and hit something.

I am Coventry born and dragged up. Would also give me a chance of visiting family and friends so will be there if I can make it. Still not picked up my car as waiting for the DVLA to send me a V5 before I can tax her as she is sorn at moment. Odds are my mechanic will not have much chance to do much with her before this as she needs cambelt doing and maybe more so will be standard 20vt, but will still give her a go lick

OH YES!!

how much do you think it would be to see how fast people clock round the track!!

also, guys/girls/proccy

Who is up for a BBQ?

nothing posh (sorry proccy)
just disposal BBQ's and get burgers and stuff and get cooking at the track?

that way we can keep the fun going all day!!

Marco - we're not allowed to conduct official timing, as that turns the event into a competition and it then falls foul of all sorts of rules. This is why Curborough won't allow use of their own timing equipment.

However, I don't see why a simple speed trap shouldn't be used to clock terminal speeds at the end of the straight

Point taken!

i did jsut mean a speed trap put in areas to see how fast people are coming into corners ect...

also be good to monitor you Nigel, as you lived at this track for 90% of your life!!
it would be good to see where we are losing speed/ going to slow ect

@ Nobby - God knows what Sir Barnacle would come up with!!!

but i think it would look like this!!
click to enlarge laugh

edit, just seen MattM is in on this... this is going to be a fun day laugh
