Still to confirm, Peter my Ohlin feel weird Exige 240, Martin trailers are for girls Caterham R?, Matty it�s Gotham baby T and Ian bloody driveshaft Elise /Honda! Calling Oz calling Oz…Pete???
Ok So I guess I’ve paid early (well I�m in credit still waiting on final figure) it’s showing on my Login (you�re still a Muppet Ade lol ) but Chris-E-kins what you are looking at is:
10-12 tanks of fuel
�100ish return on chunnel
250/375 Euro 2/3 nights at Radisson
Bar and food kitty
Track time �695ish two days 1/2 it for 1 inc Garage FOC thanks to BaT
Spa is covered on Insurance with REIS and such like
AA Euro cover…�50ish
Add if I�ve missed anything… [/quote]
I’m struggling to justify this - based on the above you are looking at around 2.5K for 2 days on track plus the pre service check before you go, probably new rear tyres when I get back etc etc
So to break this down - probably manage 12 sessions over the 2 days which works out at between �150 to �200 per session 
I know its Spa but I could do a whole year of trackdays for 2.5K
Just not convinced gents
Okey dokey
Don’t get me wrong John. I bet it would be brilliant but knowing my fookin luck I’d probably puncture/break down on day 1 after 1 fookin lap !!!
Do we have any tyre suppliers going that we know of or people who know there way round a Lotus. I know there was mention of a ‘spares’ wagon going etc

No no, it’s not that much.
Trackdays �695
Hotel 3 nights �310 ish
Food 3 evening meals plus pop �100ish
Tunnel & Breakdown �120
Track fuel �160 for two days
Total �1385 for around 400 miles track time and a great time out with some pretty dodgy characters :whistle:?
Plus Travelling Fuel Uk mileage plus 420 miles return on continent at 35mpg?
Tyre wear and running costs are what they are, no different to a UK TD, pre checks are voluntary, I do all my own (and no that’s not why my CV failed last year 
)
Plus it’s Spa BABY!!!
Thanks for the reply. Most of the base costs I would agree with.
The track costs for me could be much higher. 400 track miles would cost me around �350 to �400 based on 5-8mpg on track.
900 miles for me to get there - another �150 - �200.
1500 mile trip with 400 on track would def mean new rear tyres.
Another �400.
Pre service check - not mechanically minded to do myself - another �250. Track day insurance = ???
Don’t get me wrong, I can afford all of the above it’s justifying it to myself
Dude you said it was the expense which I�m fine with, but saying you�re brand new car might breakdown, come on show some balls man …tell that to Will, Ade or Ian it�s a chance we all take…get some AA Euro Cover or get Jonny to bring you home (not foc btw) should the worst happen.
This year will be my, Markyb�s & Pete H�s (tbc) forth year running, Ade, Boxster boy Andy & Ian�s third, Will & Neil�s second. Sean�s as in JSR is going probably with John and what they Will and Ian don�t know about you�re car you can write on the back of a postage stamp. Last year Marky, PeteH and I drove and did the Ring for a day (16 laps) three weeks before. The year before we did some even crazier stuff and PeteH went on and did Zandvortt which I shall be doing this year with a few others…hopefully! So all bar not choosing shitty accommodation and making Spa a double header in mid summer everything else is as it should be really. BaT will bring and fit tyres.
It�s bloody good fun mate, we meet at Folkestone and pretty much live in each others pocket until back in Folkestone 2 or 3 days later…it�s a fooking giggle mate and worth every penny
Cost savers:
- run a N/A so you get better track MPG
- run a N/A so you have less tyre & brake wear
- spend less on tat / modifications
3 must be at least �1500-2000 alone
On a more serious note, I’ll be reaching out to my usual instructor / Malcolm Edeson to see what he charges for a full day, so if anyone fancy a shared day, drop me a PM.
Thanks
Tom
Chris it is well worth the money, last year I drove most of the first day seemed to be constanly filling up with fuel and ended up doing 220miles on track, bloody brilliant, I average about 8mpg and never bther to look at the fuel cost, I now sacrafice 2 UK days to go each year, it is a brilliant giggle.
If you are like some of us and own a business, I seem to go to a 2 day conference every year in Belgium now :whistle:, it doen’t help much but it helps
:whistle:
