YouDrive plus 21st May- Live

I will probably be about all day to say Hi to everyone [:)] Although booked myself onto the 10.30 slot. I don't really like mornings at the best of time [:(] [;)] Thank you for the support garyw
 
You are allowed to take a guest with you at no extra charge... any more than the one is chargeable at £10!! [&:] what they get for the £10 I have no idea!! but thats the information I have been given. Maybe the coffee is that good.... [;)] garyw
 
HI Gary, I'm not bothered about the ice hill either. Does anyone have suggestions for cheap track insurance ? Thanks Stuart
 
Theres a thread running about Insurance including track days... With the learning and control involved with this day, I won't be adding any additional Insurance on my car.. We did have similar questions last time we ran this type of event and I think the majority ran with caution insurance [;)] garyw
 
Porsche Insurances Services cover two trackdays/year - but, like Gary, I won't be using one of them for this event.......[;)]
 
Damn, due to an incident a few years ago, I've had to answer Yes to the accident question..[:mad:] Joys of motoring eh!! [:D] Stuart, don't worry about the Turbos, they spin just as easy on the kick plate!![:eek:][:eek:] garyw
 
Lots of 1045, or is it 1030(?) slots booked. Hopefully will be nice and quiet after lunch then.........[;)][:D]
 
Its 10.45 Alan, I did wonder how we'd get a full 90minutes with the original time slots...pleased to say that they have corrected it now. A write up is in this month magazine (says 10.30[:(]) so the general membership will get to hear of it then... garyw

Does that mean you still have slots that you'd like to fill? I've done it twice now but haven't ever got anything useful out of the low friction circuit.

Chris, As you'll be aware the lead time for magazines is such a long time, It was actually written in advance by quite a while. We have always announced events first via google groups and then the forum, however it goes in the PP as the club believes that the whole club read the magazine, so the whole of the 997 register will then read about the event and be able to book. I'd like the 997 members to have first options on the event but would not like to see empty places and other club members missing out on the offer. I'd hope that it can be opened up to all club members by the second week in March and all 48 places are benefited by members. Doug, see you for lunch [:)] garyw
 
Just got back from a Silverstone day with the new GTS The kick plate is out of action until at least March (depending on the lawsuits with the original constructors) and thereafter the ice hill will need to be rebuilt. Something about them not being built right in the first place and their surfaces cracking due to winter. Hopefully both will be back in action for you guys in May.
 
ORIGINAL: tscaptain There's a headline in there somewhere....."Ice hill breaks up due to.........ice"[;)]
Well it did freeze last time [;)] and put it out of action....
 
Hi - I am all booked in for the 1.30 session. I have to say hiring their car for an extra £50 seemed like a rather good deal, so I have done that. You could probably spend that in fuel in an hour and a half at current prices, let alone tyre wear etc. Thanks for organising Gary, it seems like exceptional value to me.
 
Andrew, It certainly is good value at £50 for one of their cars...[:)] However I somewhat believe that doing this training in your own car gives you the chance to see what your own car actually does... None of the feeling in the back of your mind that its a specially setup car to do these type of things with.. It certainly gave me the confidence after doing this at Millbrook in my own car... and has possibly saved me from a few cross country events [&:] [;)] I look forward to meeting up. garyw
