Do you know if they're applying their usual "no track cars" rule?

TBH, I don't know! - I didn't know they had that rule, all the ones I have been on have allowed anything

Yeah, their novice days have a no race/track cars rule normally.

Please note: Novice Only Trackdays are for drivers who have attended a maximum of three trackdays before. If you are an experienced driver please do not book into this event as you will not be permitted to take part and will not be offered a refund on your booking. Race / track cars are also not permitted on Novice Only Trackdays.

I did the brands hatch one on the 23` it was my first ever track day and boy did i love it but i was in my track car that i have just finished building i did check with MSV and sent them some photos of my car before i went as it does state no track cars but as mine is road legal they said it was OK

and most of the guys there were not NOVICES trust me but had a really great time and cant wait to get out on track again

Dang it, these are always on wednesdays or fridays!! I can't get off work/get off early enough to attend. Has to be a weekend, and a weekend I'm not working at that!

They are all down south..

If they did it at Oulton Park I would book for my other half as thats only a couple hours drive away

Post Mon Jul 05, 2010 6:20 pm

I am doing Snetterton. Anyone else?

Post Mon Jul 05, 2010 11:48 pm

i quite fancy snet, need to see what shift i'll be on though, and would most probably be in the e36.

Post Fri Jul 09, 2010 8:42 pm

Spoke to them yesterday and they want to see pics, so when it's sprayed next week I should be fine.

Post Thu Jul 22, 2010 10:43 pm

Did Bedfont on the 16 July.

Had a great day, i would recomend this to anyone.

would like to do 27 Aug Bedford

Post Sun Jul 25, 2010 10:44 am

Yeah thanks, Mrs booked a last minute week away fom the 21st so now can't go, I'm at Bedford for the Palmersport event week after next though, but can't take the E30 on that!

Post Thu Aug 05, 2010 12:32 pm

Just booked for Snetterton this coming Wednesday 11th August. Phoned in and spoke re the car (has a cage, race seat, stripped etc). Was just asked 'will you be driving to the track in it' and 'has it got license plates'. That appears to be enough so that it's not seen as a "track car"

Look forward to it. Anyone else going?

Unfortunately, i,m working one of them and out of the Country on the 27th of August.
Do you know if there are plans to do later dates. same venue. Also is a Cab acceptable/allowed

Have looked at the website btw.

Heh heh. That was fun. Think I might need ear plugs next time, it's bloody loud with no seats, trim, soundproofing etc. Didn't really notice until the drive home though.

The slippery slope has begun. Better tyres, bushes, suspension, driving skills (instruction) beckon.

DHFis, nice to meet you there. Hope see you at another one soon.

Post Fri Aug 13, 2010 9:06 pm

Post Fri Aug 13, 2010 11:02 pm

It was nice to meet you mate, a good day was had! Sorry we didnt get to say goodbye but I wanted to get the car on the trailer before the sun went down. I did hang around but didn't see you.

Post Sat Aug 28, 2010 11:41 am

Nice to meet you guys too, hope your journey home was a bit quicker. Let me know if you book another track day as I might try and join although I think I've definitely used all my grace on the 'Novice' days. Welcome to the slippery slope.
