Silverstone Track Taster Day 10 years 9 months ago #124370

I don't really want to try and organise this, but thought I would post if someone else wanted to pick it up.

You can have a meet at Silverstone, and then any car that wants 30mins on track, can pay £39 per car (I assume a helmet will be required)

Anyway the info is attached should someone want to pick it.

That looks great value for the experience. :yesnod:
As it is not a race, you can drive at a speed you & the car are comfortable with.
Will get some more details & may try to organise an event.
Meet up & lunch first, then an afternoon session :woohoo:

I have now received info. on this & need to see how many are interested in what should be a great event.
Details;
Sunday,27th October. Time slot probably 14.10 - 14.40pm. cost £39.
Drivers need to wear helmet, but if you can't borrow one , they are available for hire for £10.
Also, drivers need to have arms & legs covered.
After full safety briefing, drivers follow instructors car around the National circuit & after a few familiarisation laps continue at their own pace ;)
What I envisage is meet up for a photo shoot in the Paddock about 1.00pm, then have lunch in cafe on site.
There is a max. of 20 cars per time slot, so it would be ideal if we could book this just for MG's.
As, from past experience, I think we will struggle to do this with just T-bar members & I intend to invite members of Org. as well.
So who's up for this?

That's fine. You could be top dog ;)
Bring the missus as well in the "F", sure it would improve her driving experience :P

Well, so far we have 2 T-bar & 5 from Org. that are interested, so it would be nice to have a few more of you to join us.
Don't be put off if you have a bog standard car - my brakes are OEM & don't fill you with confidence, so I will be taking it easy coming up to bends :-? Also I'm 75, so expect to be at the back of the field ;)
