Might be worth you speaking to Starlet_Sam. He has already spoken to most of the circuits inorder to get us some track time.

as pete has had - sam has organised one for novemeber.

Your looking anywhere between 4-10k to hire a track of silverstone name - which works out at several hundred quid a car - and sams struggling to get people to pay £120 for cadwell.

fair play to you dude :cool:

problem youve got is people paying up - people say oh yes im interested, but when it comes to paying up they dont - this is on every forum.

im looking into going to the ring next year - few people off here have already expressed interest in it - so will post up details of costs etc when i have them

It'll never happen I'm afraid.

Starlet_Sam, who did a sterling job organising the last TGTT trackday at Llandow, seems to be having problems getting people to commit £120 for Cadwell in November. There's no way in shit you're going to get enough confirmed interest to pull off Silverstone given that it'll be at least twice the price per car.

Sam has spoken to them already and also Javelin Track days. He has other things in the pipeline but I cant say what so just keep an eye on the meets thread and put your name down.

yes but not all are active, not all want to track there car.

Sam gave everyone 6-7 months notice for the track day at llandow - and that was £120 i think for the day......only just managed to fill up the spaces.

Cadwell park - bigger track - good name etc (better reputation than llandow) - minimum of 30 people on track at time - working out at £120 per car - sams struggling to fill up the 30 spaces.

Most track days will be during the week - not at weekend unless you wanna pay alot of money (a mean hell of alot!)

Yes in theory lots of people should be, but practicality theres not alot of people.

I would strongly suggest speaking to sam before making enquries - as he has asked all this information beofre and got prices etc from the circuits - plus as pete said - theres stuff in the pipeline.

Yeah it will be a weekend to get the most time on the ring, sunday is usually a whole day and saturday is an afternoon thing but they have testing on in the morning so something to watch.

Will chat more on sunday.
