Im a new member From Manchester. Ive got a y2k 1.7 moondust,
which i take to trackdays and have tried a sprint (i finished middle of the board on my third ever outing!!!)
Im booked in at Oulton 14th Febuary and probably Angelsey 8th March. Also 17th May at Blyton, its a sprint type event ;-)
Any other Pumapeople go trackdaying? im doing up to 10 this year (including Fordfair)
Hope to hear from you all soon..

Should really book on some stuff to be going on with this year. How much did you get give for Oulton?
I'm in Liverpool so that is also fairly handy for me, great track as well although tip toes around Lodge the whole day that time of year.

I am just paranoid that my carfully laid plans will go to cock if i leave things too late.
Hi Bentleya, Snetterton is a hell of a drag for me (220 miles!) so thats one to work up to.
im hoping to do a southern track or two around Fordfair in early August to save me some petrol and have a weeks holiday tracking about....

I am on that trackday for a testing session for my Puma Cup car, I have merely said we will be there and if anyone else wants to come along that day then that will be great.
All the people who want to attend can book their own track time and garage should they want to .
There is no formal organising of it, but if you turn up then theres nothing wrong with that. It stops people pulling out and refunds etc, If people want to go then they do their own booking.

Im on a fairly modest budget and have commitments so im limited to tracks within around 100 miles of manchester.
Ill shout up as i go for trackdays at Oulton, Angelsey, Blyton,Cadwell,Donington etc
plus im looking at places like Aintree who are predominantly sprint venues, but do do the odd trackday.

Oulton Park----14/2/14

There are still places at Angelsey (OPL)
Im now looking for something in early April.
Has anyone got anything planned?

So I guess you can do one or the other but not qualify to do both.

Kat is quite right. MSV have specified that to qualify i cannot have attended more than 3 trackdays
(how they check i dont know) but i wouldnt want to turn up just to be shown the gate by trying to be a smart-arse.
The novice/groups trackday is cheap, but only 2hrs in total on track!. So compared to giving it rice on an OPL (2+hrs morning & Afternoon) its actually expensive
There are now 3 in my group going to Angelsey, I think Cadwell Park 5/4/14 (Javelin) is looking favourable as my next booking...

Oulton is phenomenal, even in the rain
I only span once (oh yeah, and clipped the armco )
Only a glance. It didnt stop me (or slow me down).
I was pleased to see plenty of more powerful cars - as i passed them
I was only really done by a group of well driven BeeEms

Great photo, bet you are itching now for your next track date

I had a flush of exuberance and paid for a couple of the official photo blokes shots, I think Im glad I did
A couple of the marshals raved about Angelsey, which is but 3 weeks away
I like this one..
cheers!
