Anglesey 2017 Exiges Day

Slightly nervous on having a car but booked anyway

Booked, can’t wait once more! Just 12 places left now…

AndyD, Ian well done for booking, we just need to find Mike Lane and we could have a reunion from Llandow 2003 :open_mouth:

Great that you are coming over Tom! You gonna stay at the Premier Inn?

Does Mike Lane still have his Audi Exige?

Last I heard yes. I think he went through a period I’ll health following an accident but he still had it. Anyone have an update?

Very nervous about having a gearbox and extremely nervous about being in the country … but I have a cunning plan …

Great to hear that Andy. After an unexpected meeting with Stan at Autosport hopefully a way forwards on the gearbox will emerge…

Ye, booked in for the Thursday night as usual. Can’t wait!

Talking of being in a different country, I’ll drop you a line…

10 PLACES REMAINING!

There’s a few more bookings in the pipe so get in there.

I’ve also been asked a couple of times about coming along but not going on circuit. Its as much a social-event as a circuit-event so any exiger is welcome to just pitch up at Ty Croes on Good Friday and have a wander around the paddock and say hello. No booking/payment required and you can sign on as pax for £10 (which all goes to charity).

8 Places Remaining!!!

Also I’m excited to announce that Hofmanns Lotus will be attending the event. Chris Randall (Randy) will be coming along and driving his 340R on circuit. Randy is known to many of us and was one of the original members of the forum when he owned an S1 (which he turned into a very successful racecar) and long before he became a Lotus dealer. He is well known as a Lotus handling guru and is exceptionally talented on circuit (especially in a Lotus) having been dominant firstly in his Exige then in his well known Europa. Its not even his first exiges.com event as I remember him coming to Croft in 2005!

Fingers crossed too that the Hofmanns Exige 380 demonstrator will be there too with availability for test drives (still awaiting confirmation on that). I think there’s a pax seat in his 340R if you ask nicely (and have your brave pants on!)

More details when I have them…

Great news, Ben, well done.

I thought he (Randy) was banned from here :open_mouth: :laughing:

:unamused:

Yup he was and still is banned!

From memory he had a disagreement with Admin5 about downforce (approx a decade ago). I’d tend to trust the opinion about aero of someone who has spent considerable time racing an 1000bhp Group-C GTP car.

I think he should be allowed back. Regardless he’s booked on to attend and I for one am looking forward to sharing a circuit with him. Oh by the way, unbelievably this is first time driving at Anglesey so if you know yer way round I suggest going out behind him immediately after the sighting laps to bag an overtake :laughing:

Well done Ben and Chris :clap:

7 Places Remaining!!

Don’t end up on the reserve list!

Easy to unban if that’s what is wanted. Please advise.
Does he want to be back on here???

He is a regular on seloc. An active current dealer on here can only be a good thing?

Yeah I’d say reinstate him. I’ve no idea whether he’d want to contribute but I’ll ask him.

I agree.

I did try to get him back a few years ago.
