Trax @ Silverstone

Post Wed Jul 11, 2007 1:12 pm

'Just wondered if anyone was going to Trax at the begining of September?.
It's normaly full of chavs but it's a good chance to drive the national circuit..If I remember rightly you go out for 15 minute sessions but I can't think how much it costs...I should be there in my old 325 'C80 OH OK' it's last outing was the 'Ring a few weeks ago!...

Wher do we get ticket's from? Can we get a slot on the day?

I booked my tickets through my local car club as there having a pitch on the club area. Or you can book them on the website and get a fiver off, track time is also booked on the website www.traxshows.co.uk

I'm due to be there with a bunch of E24 owners. If mine is finished in time, I'll be taking that, else I've got an offer of a lift in an Alpina B10 if mine's not done. To be honest, I'm tempted just to leave mine in the garage and enjoy the B10.

I'll not be taking my E24 to the track, as firstly, it will be a crap track car, and secondly, I'm a crap driver.

If there's an E30 enclave I'll attempt to wander over and introduce myself.

Crap driver? Well i'm gonna have a go and i'm deffo not the best! I'm sure your no worse. I'm sure it'll be fun anyway. Joeey, What time are you on the track?

Sorry Big-air i did not get your pm till tonight. I recon i see AndyTouring on track to. Think you might have been you in the que to get in, you followed me in. There was also another red e30 and a silver one parked by me by the Brooklands suite. Has any one got any pic's?

Afraid it wasn't me - too chicken. It was actually one of the Big coupe Forum guys - he'd come all the way from Prague!

I saw you going round. There was a black Touring out there too.

Respect due to the guys in an orange Smart & a Hillman Imp. You have to have balls to take something so slow on a F1 track (not to mention a thick skin!)

Had an awesome day shame i couldnt find you after though! and had a good battle with a Teggy TypeR, Fiesta ST and a cossie throught the track session, trust a Ford to brake down and end it early though

The only other e30 i saw was a left hooker silver MTech2

I recon! I see them go around. Made me chuckle. I did look around to see if i could find you joeey but no joy. I did see you leave when i was in the que to leave, you was about 10 car's ahead of me (a little late then though) I was gutted when it finished, especialy when i see the ford was the cause

I was just getting into the swing of thing's. Never mind. Have you lot got any other track day's booked?
