BLYTON ACTION DAY - 2023

[AndyB72]

Never been to Blyton yet. Is there an auto jumble as well?

Keep an eye on the For Sale section of the forum a few weeks before the event.
Lots of parts usually get listed for collection at Blyton.

Traders wise, we will have our usual stand, Nick Rogers and ADO16 Equipment are normally there as well with stands.

Plus AndyB & Tim Whight & a few others too. Number of stands in never high, but quality of stuff on offer is usually exceptional.

Hi Mark,

I've had a look at the possibility of booking for this, but it seems it's fully booked on the Javelin site. I was just wondering if it's possible to attend without having track time booked?

Apologies in advance if this is a silly question...

Cheers, Ed.

Hi Ed,

Yes, everyone is welcome. Only about 10% or less of our visitors actually have track time booked.

Entrance is free, but we take a collection at the gate for Macmillan Cancer care.

See you there,

M

My bucket rattling arm is always available for a few hours.

Aha! Brilliant, thanks Mark, I wasn't sure.

I'm hoping we can attend (if I ever solve the ignition problem on Tweed..), and very much look forward to it . I've been watching various videos on YouTube of the track time and am definitely interested in getting on track in future, but coming along to simply spectate and soak up the atmosphere would be nearly as much fun I'm sure!

You could buy a passenger pass and ask a few of the drivers if they'll take you out for a spin. Bring a helmet, or I think they have them available to hire, although not sure since covid and all that.

There's also the track parade at lunch for the opportunity to drive your car on the track for a few laps with passengers in the car, no helmet needed.

Have cancelled my morning track pass so Javelin have one available.
Auto Italia Magazine want my car on display at their Italian Day at Brooklands on the Saturday, so will have to travel up to Blyton Sunday morning.

A quick question?
In previous years there was a "Just Giving" link for donations to the MacMillan charity. Is there one this year?
Thanks in advance.

We will be using the same donation page as last year. It's the one that Pete set up in memory of his lovely wife Elizabeth.

I’ve been approached by a media firm I met recently who were doing some filming at Olympia. They’d like to come up and make a little film of the day if that’s ok with everyone. It’ll be a nice little something to remember the day by. They’ll use it on social media and YouTube, I’ve seen their work and it’s really good, they’ll probably interview a few of us I should imagine.

Great news.

[AndyB72]

Sounds good Pete!

I have just received confirmation that Harvey Death will be attending our Blyton Track Day with his amazing V8 Powered "Fastest Mini In The World". This will be a great chance to see this "Ultimate Super Mini" on track & chat to Harvey about his stunning creation.
