I\'ll probably get to the hotel late. I\'m having to work Monday due to deadlines. May have to have my tea at home then set off. Might only get there past 10pm !

Quote from: antnicuk;766771i dont suppose you guys will go slow enough for us queens although we are leaving at about that time and coming up the M11

If possible , as per last time we may need a couple of people to block us in at the beaumont car park.

 Is the Hotel that rough....... :bandit

Great day, actually fantastic 24 hrs altogether...  
Good crack at the Hotel before and Cadwell was blinding!

 Well done Malcom and all involved :cheers

 

 Oh, and Clive and the owner of the Silver 8, what a lucky lucky escape, almost wearing a Toyota \'sh!t box\' on your heads!!! :Giggle

Dam it. I knew if I didn\'t come I\'d miss something funny and random. Looks like you got good weather for the day.

Weather was grand all day :D

Was a fantastic day, shame the video camera didn\'t work whist I had my spin (with Ian in the Car). Got some nice progressive images of the spin through from the camera lady !

Looking forward now to Oulton Park :D

oooooooo. Where abouts did you spin out at Shaun? I\'m gonna take a guess at the 90 right after the long straight with the dip in it (can\'t remember the name of the bend).

The left hander at the bottom of the hill (where I went on the grass almost running the camera lady over last time).

I\'ve only just got back, having been one of the party who stayed an extra night at the Beaumont Hotel.

What can I say, I think this was one of the best trackday events to date, and we\'ve had some really good ones in previous years! The trackday was awesome, aided by the near perfect weather and dry track. I sat in as a passenger in several cars and it was very educational to see the differences in everyone style of driving - I learned a lot from observing! The social side was superb and I thought the food and service at the hotel was 1st class. Thanks to everyone who supported this event and made it so enjoyable. Photos and videos will no doubt appear here soon, so those who were there can re-live some of the day, and others can see what they missed :Tongue1

Roll on next year\'s return to Cadwell, a truely superb track to drive.

Next Trackday event is Oulton Park on Friday, July 22nd, for whaich I will start a separate thread very soon.....

The other event which is proving popular is a full Open Pit Lane day at the brand new tarmac circuit at Blyton Park (in the same part of the country as Cadwell) on SATURDAY, 6th August. We\'ve already got 23 cars signed up for this at a bargain price; still some places left for anyone interested - just look for the separate thread on this one.

Thanks Malcolm, we all really enjoyed it and agreed, the Hotel service and food was fantastic.

I seem to remember on the next lap she was standing where you\'d parked the car on the grass, so lucky for her I guess. Very much enjoyed the ride in your FD (again!) and the spin at the bottom of Mansfield was very graceful and completely without panic. Lucky really as my spare pants were back at the hotel :Giggle I\'m also gutted that the camera had a flat battery at the start of the day when put to its first use.

I must say that the day was absolutely superb and thoroughly enjoyed the fine company, excellent weather and brilliant track. I\'ve got a ton of videos and stills to work through so I\'ll try and get a few tasters posted up shortly.

Oh, and Cadwell would not be complete without Malcolm\'s brakes making another appearance :rolleyes:

Roll on the next event... :Thumbsup!
