Brands Hatch - 2014

[Bentleya]

It has been mentioned in a few threads recently that there is some interest in a track day outing to Brands Hatch this year. I thought it would be a good idea to have a central place to discuss this and hopefully we can decided on something and get it booked up.

Interested People & Dates;

Aaron - August/September
Alan - End of August/September
Amanda - August/September
Jay - Not first 2 weeks in September
Neil - July/August/September

Neil - July onwards (but August/September is prob more sensible tbh)

Best to steer clear of major shows round that time if possible though by at least a couple of weeks.

 

[Sparx]

Me! If we're doing August/September a weekday would be preferable.. I know track days are normally weekdays but I'm just sayin :lol:

 

[BigAl]

Yep, put my name down. But I am away around the middle of August! :grin:

As long as it doesn't fall on the first 2 weeks of September I'd be interested.... Not sure Lucy would be very impressed If I rearranged our wedding for a track day :grin:

Have the wedding in the pit lane mate! Reception in the garage!

 

[Sparx]

You know they do actually hold weddings at brands hatch

I actually would.... I really dont think she'd be impressed though, it would be fitting though seeing as it was ProjP and pumapeople that got us together, I owe quite a lot to these little cars!

Go on. You know you want to. You could have a puma guard of honor and if we can plan it well enough we might even be able to play here comes the bride on the horns

Good on ya mate.. doesn't work out that way for all of us as i've recently learned..

 

[Puma Babe]

Just means something better is coming up Amanda.

 

[Sparx]

Let hope so

Theres nothing yet on Javelin for Brands Hatch during August or September... But on the brands Hatch website (more expensive!) theres the following to choose from..

Wed 2 Jul £245
Mon 7 Jul (GP Circuit) £450
Thu 24 Jul £245
Wed 13 Aug £245
Tue 26 Aug £245
Wed 3 Sep £249

All include Open Pit Lane

 

[Bentleya]

Tuesday 26 August is a good date, but £245 is pretty steep. I wonder if they would do a group booking.

I'm sure they would do something on the price, especially if we could confirm a certain minimum number 5-10?

I think we need to get something sorted so everyone can pencil a date in their diaries! :grin:

 

[BigAl]

On a slightly seperate note, i did speak to Will at Rockingham during the week about another trackday at Rockingham if anyone might also be interested in that too? He might also have other dates later in the year! :grin:

April 21st sounds good to me as I have Mondays off but I could always book for May 29th

June 21st is out of the question for me I'm afraid

 

[Neil]

I'm going to be in the Falklands until September quite soon, so I doubt I'll make any of this.

 

[Bentleya]

ZSOC have a 10% discount for Brands when booking 5 or more cars.

 

[lusid666]

April 21st would be best for me too :grin:

 

[BigAl]

April the 21st is Easter Monday (bank holiday) so that would be good for me, & hopefully a few others! :grin:
