Abingdon open-pit track day

[plodster]

Hello all,

Abingdon are holding an open-pit track day on 2nd December, currently £129.00 for the day on track (open-pit), £10 per passenger (for the day) and £20 per additional driver (for the day). There is a 100dB static limit and it is a non--competitive event - anyone caught timing themselves could be thrown out. As with all track days, helmet and gloves a must for all, etc etc.

I have been told they may offer a discount on a group or number of vehicles who would attend, so is anyone interested? Might be good to have a little SIDC gathering there, good burger van I've been told! PM me or thoughts on here please.

Is that Abingdon in Oxon?

[plodster]

Yup, the same...

[Bailey73]

I didn't even know there was a track there lol

It's the airfield IIRC, where the airshow is mate

That's absolutely right, lots of run-off areas because of the vast space available.

Quite tempted if I can get the time off. Don't suppose they do discounts for half days as a morning off would be easier to swing? Suppose I could always "work from home" that day and answer emails via 3G OK on the base

Sounds like a plan to me, was planning a similar thing...... No half day options at present unless we can get a few people through the club who want the same thing.

Spectators - there's no spectator areas apparently, but if in support of someone paying on the track you can watch from pit wall etc apparently.

Will swing past the base and check it for 3G coverage tonight! ;D
