SES Trackday - Brands Hatch 2011 - Take 2!
Right, time to get this back on track!
Having spoken to ClubMSV again today, the best option for us is Thursday 14th April. This is a 2 hr 30 min evening open pit lane session for £119, so spend as much or as little time as you like on circuit. Currently there is plenty of availability on this date, as the evening was reserved for another club who have now decided not to take up the booking. Timetable for the evening is as follows: 15:30 Arrival & signing on 16:30 Driver briefing 17:30 Sighting Laps 20:00 Track Time Ends - The session has a 102db noise limit (same as last year). - This is NOT a novice only session. Novices are welcome but anyone can register, no matter how many previous trackdays they have done. - We get a 10% discount and reserved garages if we get of group of 10 people (not sure how likely this is yet). However, if we do get 10 then we need to book over the phone after i've arranged the group details with ClubMSV - so don't book online yet ;) Names on list please! 1.

Even if he wants it, i can get it at anytime back for track use ;)
|
If he doesn't I can keep it in the garage for when I have a headache!! (or small people to ferry about!) ;)
|
Interested (Very!) too, but just waiting to see if we are here that date. Should be, so once I know i'll get my name down.
|
Is it a Subaru only affair as I'd be up for it in my EP3.
|
Is the 20min. taster session not happening now?
last year this was very popular? |

The 20 minute sessions were very popular last year, but I think that was also because people wanted to come along and be part of the photoshoot on the Brands grid - something we aren't doing this time. |

It's possible that I could pop along but it's unlikely that anyone will lend me a Scooby, so it will be a little plastic car.

Scooby_Greg Added James the the list as well cos he wasn't on it. Doesn't look like we'll get to the 10 places we need to get 10% discount so we should probably just get this booked individually - everyone happy to do this now? :ok: |
Anybody booked in yet - don't want to be the only one there!

I need to recoupe my cash first from booking Japfest on Surrey before i can book... thats just set me back £345

|
Bit worried I won't have the oil cooler fitted in time so may be a case of a few laps then in every time the oil gets hot! But otherwise good to go!

Will not be on track, I have had a few issues with the car but one day.
|
Good luck to both of you taking part.
Have a good afternoon. I will now not be attending. |
Well.... what an evening that was.
Some lovely cars out there, some of them seriously quick! Much preferred the open pit lane format to the 20 minute sessions we did last year - more freedom to go out when i wanted and for however long i wanted. The scoob did a great job, brakes were always going to struggle but they actually seemed to get better and better (i assume as the pads put more deposits on the discs?) until they started to fade about 20 minutes into a run. Managed to get smoke pouring off the rears when coming back to the pits so at least they were getting a good workout :D Would definatey recommend the £25 instruction, lasted about 20 minutes (then a 15 minute chat about lines/techniques) and definately helps. Cheers to Nick for the few laps in your car, although i feel i need to apologise too. My heavy arse must have contributed to your problem - it seemed fine with Sian in the car!! ;) Glad you got home ok and hope its quickly sorted. Don't think anyone was taking pics so i'll have to have a look at the Brand's photography guys and see what they got. |
Got any idea of your times??
|
No idea... its not about the times.
The plan wasn't to push hard to improve times, thats when mistakes happen. All i can say is that they definately improved through the evening :) |
Very enjoyable night.
Nick, glad our little bodge got you home. Steve considering your on standard 4 pots you were giving it plenty, hats off to you for making the most out of your time. The eveing was so chilled out, no rushing, plenty of time to let the car cool down. Evening open pit lane is def the way to go. Both yours and nicks cars sounded sweet. I did get 1 vid of you passing down the start finish straight. |
