Hi guys,

I'd like to suggest a new venue for many of you - Keevil, in Wiltshire.
It's a venue I have driven a couple of times and would suit both the Coupes and us Seveners having some twistys and straights. The surface is very good as airfields go and I experienced no gravel to the face in the Caterham and tyre wear among tin tops also appeared good.

I'm suggesting Keevil for a few reasons -

- It's cheap at £90 for open pit (not the advertised £99)
- It's suitable for beginners with run off
- It's local to me and not difficult for the Midlands or South guys to get to
- Motorsport events do run their days well
- Whilst they list the days at 100db I have rarely ever seen a car get noise tested/excluded


Monday 11th of July.

http://www.motorsport-events.co.uk/

When booking please call Natasha from Motorsport Events on 07855 482953 quoting my name (David) as the reference. Doing this will mean you will get the booking for £90. Let me know when you have booked and paid and I will add you to the list.

1. Fishy_Dave and Beth Paid
2. Flea Paid
3. Jonny Paid
4. Neal Paid
5. Elder81 + Dad Paid



+ Five or more guys from my local area in their Caterhams, so I can confirm that we will be paying £90 each.

I like the sounds of that Dave, but I'll have to check the holiday situation to see whether I can spare a day off. Hmmm....

Keevil is where I saw you last year when I was in my old Porto Dave. Was a good day, surface was good so another +1 for me

Will this be a coupe forum only session or will it be with the general public?

It will be open to everyone, the more FCCUK guys going the less general public there will be of course. No sessions, it's open pit so you are free to drive on track as often as you would like through the day.

@Hovedan, ah yes, I remember meeting you there now. smile

Everyone will be booking sepererately on the website Marco smile

Just the one day at Oulton (if you discount the failed day at Donny! laugh )

I've been too busy with work frown , and my Westie is also currently living elsewhere as we are having a load of building work done on the garage. So I've not even had much tinker-time frown

I'd like to do a couple in August and the same in September ... and will let you know what I'm looking at smile

If my brother is free as well then we'll book up cool I'll always book on a day with people I know, much more fun evil

Looks like there'll be some opportunity for some back end action laugh

FYI

Trackdays.co.uk are just brokers, they take a percentage of booking.

Motorsportevents are excellent people, maybe get someone to ring Ed Moore and suggest a deal for FCCUK?

Yes, please book direct with Motorsport Events and quote my name (David) when booking and you will receive a discount bringing the cost to £90 for the day. This does depend on us reaching ten bookings, which I'm pretty confident we will. For those who have booked already please can you call Natasha on 07855 482953 and let her know.
Thanks
