[iain85]

Booked for 7pm

See you all there! Is any one getting there early to talk Subaru or perhaps a beer afterwards?

[RCS2810]

If i wanted to do the 20 min taster what would the fuel cost be rougly as would love to come to the 17:40 but having just bought road insurance i dont have loads of money at the moment. Worked out £55 for the session plus my gf and two helmets. Then £30 fuel there and back. The killer is track insurance is £100...

[Anger]

I'll be there early.... But talk Evo

[Moley_WRX]

For a 20 min novice session I'd say you won't need insurance, nobody should be pushing their cars that much on those sessions.

Fuel won't be much either, you'll only be driving 15 miles maximum.

[Moley_WRX]

Rachel might be taking my car out on one of the novice sessions

[iain85]

Rcs, I've got a few lids you can borrow? Although depends on the size of you and your mrs heads!

[RCS2810]

Thanks moley.

Well i think my heads a medium but the misses head is a tiny pin head lol.

Ok il keep an eye out for any scoobies and say hello!

Rcs, my crash hats are available if you like my head is massive but my mrs has a small head so you could borrow hers? Let me know.

[Bytes]

If my exhaust fails again I'd be up for being a passenger if there were any offers ... ... and I'd also need a helmut too if there's a spare

Cheers ...

[SamSTI]

Track insurance sorted today (thanks Gary). Really looking forward to this now!!

Any meet up points on the way??

[drakesnow]

I'll be there for a couple sessions and bringing the Type R . I'll be leaving from Eastbourne with a friend who's doing the evening too. Aim to get there for around 330 as well.

[Moley_WRX]

If anyone needs track cover done can you let me know asap.

[Anger]

Gary can you sort mine please

[MSR2012]

Not a chance I'm afraid, too much going on and car not really ready for trackdays at the moment!

[burble]

Looks like there's gonna be 3 tea boys now! Will bring my helmet (ooo er) if there's a chance of riding shogun. See you all there. What time are you all planning on turning up?

Ps thanks to everyone that gave me advice on what exhaust system to put on my hawkeye. I went with the consensus & have fitted a vortex b/b & unresonated centre section. It brings a silly grin to my face everytime I start her up

[Steve_PPP]

For everyone going on circuit, don't forget to bring your towing eye that screws into the front bumper - Brands will want it fitted before you go out on track

[Moley_WRX]

Oh bugger, that's a problem.... my brake ducts cover that hole.

[simba]

Since when never have before?

Surely not for taster sessions

[Granby]

Hope it stays dry for you all, may even drop down and say hello

[Steve_PPP]

When I last did Brands (it was the year after we had our big evening up there with the photo shoot) they stated during the briefing session that towing eyes must be fitted. I'd forgotten mine and it was questioned at the end of the pit lane when going out - they let me off luckily that time.

But I thought i'd mention it so nobody has the same hassle

The Monaro would be good fun Ian...

I hope so - I haven't got a lot of tread on my rear AO48s which will make it interesting....

Your skill not a prob

[Anger]

Still undecided on warn R888's or New RSR's

[Moley_WRX]

New RSR's... then you can give me some feedback on them! Fancy a set myself.

[Moley_WRX]

Last time I did Brands they got funny about it, and made me remove my fog cover and fit the towing eye

[Anger]

Evo8's don't even come with anywhere for tow hooks

[Steve_PPP]

Just to add, please make sure you read the T&Cs section here (in case you skipped over it when booking )
http://www.clubmsv.com/car-trackday-regulations.aspx

It also contains details of how the evening will run - sign-on, briefings etc.

One noticeable point:

All drivers and passengers must wear a suitable, correctly fitting crash helmet and have their legs covered at all times whilst on circuit. In the case of open top vehicles, drivers must wear full face helmets and also have arms covered at all times.

So no shorts.....

Best to bring the paper part of your driving license too, although i'm not 100% sure we'll need it. Video from cars is allowed for personal use, but mounts need to be bolted to the car - no suction mounts inside or outside of the vehicle.

[iain85]

So even for the 7pm session signing on still has to be at 4.30pm?

[iain85]

Also don't think I've got a towing eye? Shall I just play dumb ( comes naturally to me)

If push comes to shove I would think you could borrow one from someone that is not on track, the same time as you..

[drakesnow]

Hay Sam my friend and I are meeting at Polegate roundabout services at the big roundabout before heading up the A22 from there. Anyone else who wants to come ??! Thinking we meet and leave for 2 pm.
