E30 Zone

....it would be good to get a number of e30's on the same days. This might prompt people to sign up.

I'll start.

Donnington Park - 18th July

Hullavingdon 17th Sept (shake down).

Spa 16th October (probably crash).

Frank Hall's charity day at Blyton Park on 9th October.

Spa....God I love that track!

Get on it - it's only 280 for the full day!!

There's a few of us going over.

Good Post
Nowhere !! ..... untill I get my 6 speed sorted after Bedford on the 6th July

Surely we could organise an e30zone track day.

Would be a good opportunity to raise some money for the website - I did a track day at Combe last year which was privately organised, on a Saturday and only £150.

Tom

Ps - shotgun not organising it though

Happy to get involved but don't want to do all the work. Problem I had though last time I tried to do this is the track owners wanted me to front the money and I'm not doing that

Bedford would get my vote if something could be organised.

I'll call them and report back, better put this on FB probably more interest

Trying to get zoners to turn up to a meet that they put their name down for is hard enough, let alone one that requires £150 at some point!

A while back (3 years ago +) around 5 or 6 of us went to an airfield day together. Much like this thread it was sorted all individually with the track organiser, we just all went on the same date. I think it is for the best otherwise someone will end up out of pocket and it won't be for a small amount I can assure you

Having said all that, I am interested as to how many went on that private day at Coombe Tom?

I would have thought there was at least 30 cars - it was organised mainly through turbosport.

The chap has organised a few before too.

Raw Motorsport and ergen ran two track days last year at Combe too.

That's how Frank sorts out his Blyton days. £100 per car, additional drivers/passengers free, excess goes to charity.

Sounds good but our excess could go towards the website?

Why not just get in on one of the car club days? They are the best track days around by far

I'm at Bedford this Saturday with a few mates. First UK day after the ring this year so looking forward to it!

Add Mallory on the 20th of September to the list.

I've got to get some track action this year in the M3 as I missed out on the ring with it.

We are looking at a Brands Hatch evening later in the year Barry to get Andy's 911 some track time, I'll let you know when we come up with a date.

Saturday was great at Bedford, never been before and it was quite a fun track to learn. Had some tuition early on and it really helped, we were taking seconds out of people on the chicane on the back straight!

Next mods are going to be refitting the back seats and putting 2 baby seats in the back, along with a baby on board sticker in the back window. There were a lot of comments along the lines of - how can your 23 year old estate car be quicker than my £40k sports car

Good man Winx - what engine are you running?

Just an m52b28. I can't drive for toffee but the car seems to handle well and the instructor showed me the correct lines!

Don't be modest Henry, you can pedal!

Henry, let me know your brands date and I will try to make it with my turd

Dependant on car being completed I'll be up for Brands
