Well lane turbo is one.
Heard alot of bad stories though and personally wouldnt use them.
When i get round to it, again, thinking of these guys Here . Nice drive too!
Had alot of rally machinery when i was up there last, so assume for competition guys to use it, it must be reasonable.
Maybe we can get a discoun if we both go up!

Wouldnt be cheeky to as for a discount unless there are a fair few of us.
Get the impression there busy enough not to have to give discount, for a saturday session you have to book a few weeks in advance.

MABR - I'm not sure what interest there is in this neck of the woods. Would you be happy to come over here or alternatively if there was a place in the manchester area/M65 corridor? Like Phil I've heard indifferent comment about Well Lane but don't fancy going all the way to Northallerton!

I'm easy either way. \:D

Don't want to use Well Lane coz I've heard similar stories to above. I'm in no particular rush to sort this but felt like it was grinding to a halt.

I'm sticking to Racing Line (see thread below). The bloke I spoke to was friendly and informative and said the coop wouldn't present any probs for them. As you say they have a good reputation and are willing to set aside a club morning/day for us when they know the numbers. Also their situation may make some owners in Lancs interested.

They may not be able to coz of the time elapsed - may need a mod here or possibly a new thread?

Oh and yes, I'm OK for either date. \:D

2 best rolling roads in the country are Northampton Motorsport and Road And Track.
A clue to a very good one is if you need to book 2-3 months in advance. These 2 ive mentioned do an awful lot of motorsport vehicles. Road and Sport do all the top racers and are very very accurate.
There are some RR's out there that do live mapping that eventually cooks the ECU's and over fuels the engines.
I would only use a RR that can show you its results and comes recommended by others.

Okay - sorry for the confusion As per my original post this is for the 15th September start time 0930 hrs.

Spoke to them again today and the tarrif is for 5-10 cars £45 and 10-15 £40 all incl vat (normally £75 per session) Should this be limited to 10 cars to avoid folk hanging about \:\? We get a slightly reduced service due to volume but includes a number of print outs incl fueling, runs at various rpms and adjustments if required.
