Windymiller Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Id be interested in this. Met a couple of the CAT trainers at RPM technik earlier this year at a CoC sunday butty meet organised by Beanoir. Nice guys. Cheers Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craiglm68 Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Am interested also. Have had 2 half days on Milbrook in the past, not in the CS though .....in my Volvo Estate! Was still a complete hoot....amazing what you learn about your car and what it will/won't do ...e.g. my V50 will continue to brake (after a point) in a panic stop, even if you take your foot off the pedal). The Alpine and handling tracks keep you rather honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craiglm68 Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Likewise. Maxing the car on the bowl would be quite a rush! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Windymiller Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Thanks Jo, unfortunately september 29th isn’t possible for me as I will have been away with work the whole week before and won’t be ‘allowed out to play’ by my (much better) other half???? might there be alternative dates available? thanks, Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CATDT Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Morning All Looks like 7th October could be the one then but it would only have 3 spaces. Let's get into August and then I'll be clearer on being able to offer this date or another October option. Back once I have news. KR Jo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m afraid I’m wrong - our family calendar has a commitment that wknd - the shuttleworth ‘wings & wheels’ vintage race day so I’m a no-go on this occasion I’m afraid ?.

StuLD Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Yes, I'd be interested in stuff like this. Also, my insurance policy doesn't cover track days but am guessing one could either buy some at the course or can anyone recommend an insurer who covers specifically for track days? Many thanks, Stu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many thanks, Stu Hi Stu - I have been looking in track day insurance, there's a few options out there like A-plan, Moris, Adrian Flux -- make sure to mention the organiser is part of ADTO (check this tho!)
