EXCLUSIVE FD Track Day 15/11 ROCKINGHAM

[Mrs M@r]{]

Hi Guys

I have recevied an email from Paul, who is my contact for the Abbeville event, propopsing the following as an event ......

"We have a weekend on the National circuit at Rockingham on Sat 15/11. The national circuit is 1.7 miles of fun.. no banking and great fun.. also 105db noise so no issues..

Info on it here - http://www.lotus-on-track.com/docs/Rock-M7.pdf

If it’s of interest I may run the sat in sessions with 20 mins per hour for 3 different clubs â€" LoT, Hondas on Track and a 3rd one....."

He is propsosing FD\'s on track also! Due to the title I have already had great response on FD:UK for this and wanted to ask you guys with FD\'s on here if you would also like the opportunity to participate.
 
It\'s a Saturday event and apparently pricing is good at £99 per car, min 18 cars. Again apprently, this volume of motors on a 1.7 mile circuit is good!

So ... Anyone interested? This a really good price. I am confident we can get 18 cars up for it. An "FD on track" event shared with Lotus and Honda?!
 
I also have a contact at Japanese Performance and Banzai so hopefully they will be covering the event!! I am also going to contact some of the better known FD owners like James Willday, Pete \'le whore\' sparrow and so on to see if they will attend, even if they don\'t participate!

I think Mark will struggle with this as you all know he owns a plastic pig as well as an FD! Oh well I\'ll just have to take the pig!!!! LOL
 
All fd\'s welcome!!
Thanks
Cheryl

[Mrs M@r]{]

Well the proposal put to me was as an FD:UK session, but to be honest I don\'t mind a few FC\'s/FB\'s attending. A bit of variety never hurt anyone. But it would have to be RX7 only!

[antnicuk]

rotary engined kit car?

[lockwood77]

Haha, I\'ve already booked on this via HoT but with the FD! Happy to swap allegiance, but I have already paid under the HoT banner, so don\'t know if it\'s possible? (I also might take the DC5 instead of the FD if it\'s raining...)

Was at Rockingham on the VXR day a couple of weeks ago, infield is a bit tight and you won\'t be able to make much use of your power, but the big banked corner will see you sailing past the plastic cars and Hondas (except they\'ll be in different sessions of course...)

Tempted - Mrs M@r]{, do you know if there will be instruction available?

Tempted - Mrs M@r]{, do you know if there will be instruction available?

yes,  here it is











"go fast, dont crash" :Giggle:Giggle

[elford_tim]

See, you already left out an important piece of instruction that I\'ve figured out all by myself...











"Try not to go backwards down the track"

[antnicuk]

if you adhear to the first instruction, the second wont happen  :wiggle

[lockwood77]

I think instruction is a tenner extra, which is good value (made all the difference to my speed around Silverstone the other week!)

[elford_tim]

Tenner extra is not bad, given what you have to pay at other places. I\'ve only been to a couple of trackdays so far (and none of them in the RX) but I\'ve had instruction on each one and it made a massive difference to my speed.

Well, as much speed as you can get out of an MX5 that is

[Mrs M@r]{]

"Backwards" is Mark\'s favourite part of the day!!!!! LOL
 
Couple of questions popped up. 1, instruction and 2, payment due date. So I\'ve emailed Paul about both. :Typing

[Mrs M@r]{]

Pah ... sell your ticket to a Honda owner and come join us! And wont be raining, just nice and cool!! :yes
 

Happy to swap allegiance, but I have already paid under the HoT banner, so don\'t know if it\'s possible? (I also might take the DC5 instead of the FD if it\'s raining...)

[Mrs M@r]{]

The MX5 is a top motor ... and quick ....
 
Did I mention to anyone that on an activity day, against all the RX7\'s, I got 1min 6secs in the 5 and the fastest time of the day was Tim in his FD at 1min 3secs!!!!! Did I ... Did I mention that?!!! LOL :spank   :Giggle    :wiggle
