MK1 Performance Track Day (Confirmed date 4th May 2014)

[mk1]

Ben,

I'm not exactly sure of the ins & outs of this, but the short answer is YES you will be able to transfer, sell or otherwise switch your track pass if for some reason you can't attend or go on track.

It will probably be best to contact Pete for the details though.

[Pete]

Transferring your booking isn't something they like or encourage I don't think as it can make life complicated for them on the day but I'll ask for a definative answer. If anybody wishes to cancel they can still get a refund from Javelin. There's now only a short waiting list as I've been whittling it down due to cancellations.

I hope you still do your filming stuff Stu, the Shelsley one last year was a nice momento , showed everyone what they missed aswell !

I'll be snapping and filming for most of the day, and I might do a bit of filming on the Saturday night depending what time we get there.

thanks Pete...

it's not that I am anticipating a disaster, just curious if anyone (including myself) was to suffer an 'outage' on the way down.

Perhaps if we can all have 'moooolti pass' as Rich suggested, then we're sorted!

Cheers,
Ben.

P.S: I think Rich must have just finished watching 5th element during 'elevenses' this morning.

I watched it (again) the other week, its one of my favourite sci-fi films, so well made, good bit of comedy in it, and of course milla jovovich.......

its free to get in (with a donation to the army boys)

all the track day tickets are pre sold - but im sure people will be giving track day passenger rides on the day

[Pete]

Theoretically you may be able to book on the day for track time at an event like this but most events will book up anyway so that won't be an option. Realistically no event company could run a business dependant on random UK weather and whether people turn up or not ! Don't forget folks there is a huge barn in the paddock should the weather be less than ideal.

...very interesting.. one of umpteen ex air force bases used by the RAF and USAAF in Lincs and the East Anglian region in WW2.. I have visited quite a number..there are the remains of another airfield not far from Holkham used by a Mosquito squadron in WW2.. u have to look hard to find it... its used for crop collection and dispersal now from the many farms that use the Holkham estate land... must be in excess off 3500 acres !!!.. foxy52

Looks like Jeroen may well have some advance copies of his new book at Blyton :

Apparently the Mk1 Action Day windscreen stickers have now touched down in deepest Yorkshire.

Hi , wondering if there likely to be a trunk traders area ?? Thanks

[Pete]

Well we'll have a modest (quality over quantity) trade area with a couple of well know dealers in attendance, anyone wishing to bring stuff to sell can do so if they wish , no charge just voluntary donation to Mission Motorsport on the gate. We're due to recce the site very soon so will have a site plan ready in the next few weeks.

[mk1]

I reckon a car boot area is a stonking idea.

[tomkidd]

Yeah sounds like a great idea. Wayne Hemmingway has done something similar http://www.classiccarbootsale.co.uk/

[foxy52]

yep, cant beat a big car booty !!! lets hope and pray for fine weather ??! nothing worse than a mini show in pissy weather !!!..... foxy52

[tedmcedd]

I will bring some Jumble if you don't mind!?

Sounds like its turning out to be a great day out!
