Anybody else tempted by Spa in Sept?

General General Lotus Talk

I know it’s a bit of a long way off, but I was rather tempted by BaT’s Spa day(s) in September. �225 seemed like quite good value, even with all the travelling, for Open Pitlane on an uber circuit.Anybody else interest?Ian [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/smile.gif[/image]

May have a friend as well who may be interested!

I’m keen on going to Spa. I went there the year before last with Wheeltorque. Although the weather was dodgy, it was still an awesome track experience. I’ll be able to confirm in the next couple of weeks. It would be great to have a few more Exiges there!Roland

Dam dam dam dam dam

Ian,I intend doing the Spa dates with Bookatrack this year. I’ll also be doing the Dijon & Magny Cours dates since its such a long way to go from Scotland!Mike

8

I’m up for Spa - time permitting.Mike, what the dates for Dijon and Magny Cours? Open pitlane?

9

Ally,Dijon - 24th AugustMagny Cours - 25th AugustIf you are feeling really adventurous then another company is doing Magny on 26th & 27th. All open pit lane.Not sure at the moment whether to drive down to Dover or go Superfast from Rosyth. Suppose it will depend on price in the end!I notice you have booked in for Cadwell and spaces are running out so I suppose I’d better get it booked soon.Mike

10

Maybe the 'Ring will be open between the Magny Cours and Spa dates? Anyway, sounds good.And get Cadwell booked up - you’re my chief mechanic! [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/grin.gif[/image]You mentioned Silverstone with Easytrack on the 6th (Tuesday). There is also an Evoactive track day at Brands Hatch GP circuit on the 7th. You wanna do these track dates aswell as Cadwell? Or one of them anyway? May aswell whilst in the area.

11

Just in case no-one has noticed, Easytrack are doing Spa in September as well 29th & 30th for �175 each day.

12

Ally,Cadwell now booked up from sunny old Florida [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/grin.gif[/image] I’ll better get the toolkit together for this trip eh! Have I been promoted to chief mechanic yet??Can you believe that I messed up the dates for the Sebring 12 hours race [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/frown.gif[/image] I thought the race was today but it was yesterday. Don’t these yanks know that racing always takes place on a Sunday [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/image]Did the guy come to pick up the exige over the weekend?

13

Exige still here for short while. Will be badly missed. Dear, oh dear. [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/frown.gif[/image]Enjoy the rest of your hols.P.S. Lotus track day at Knockhill on 3rd April (5pm) by Murray Motors @ �45.

14

Can’t believe MMC are organising a track day at such short notice - or maybe I’m not a member of the inner sanctum [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/image]I don’t fly back into Edinburgh until 1pm that afternoon (after an overnight flight) so I don’t think it would be a good idea to do any sort of high speed driving [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/frown.gif[/image]Have you been invited??Mike

15

Mike, the track day was only mentioned to me when I was at MMC last week for a new battery - news to me until then. Still awaiting entry form though. Will call’em tomorrow if not arrived in post.You won’t be telling the wife that you have to go back home a day earlier than planned then???

Ally. MikeMMC ain’t told me about this either… this is the first i heard of it – maybe they want it to introduce new custom?? so existing and old farts don’t get invited?? [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/wink.gif[/image]rgds

Flogging-a-car-trackday - fair 'nuff I guess but they should have room for us old (or young in my case [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/wink.gif[/image] ) numpties too. Bruno, me old Swiss cheese, how’s it going? I’ll probably use a trailer. This will be my second attempt to make Spa! [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/wink.gif[/image]

I guess I’ll be in with the non-Exige cars if there is a seperate exiges session. Hope you get enough numbers for that - was good fun last year. Me? I’m happy to run in any session that’ll have my jalopy.
