DSC Trackday 2013 - The Poll !
 
Following on from threads on the board and also the article in the latest edition of Pronto magazine, we'd like to know if you will actually attend a trackday if we organise one this year? Low attendance over previous years mean that it appears the membership are not particularly bothered?

Is it the location? Price? Date? Everything? Something else? Please vote in this poll - which is only the first round poll - so we can decide if you want to have a trackday at all!

Trackday
 
I voted yes Ant, the only proviso is that I will be in France from 18th June until the 26th July-following the Tour de France.
Tough job-but someone has to do it...............

I think i´m late for this poll but anyway...

I am a newbie around here, but as i am (hopefully) moving to UK in a moth or so, i would definitely attend any Ducati event in Britain, depending of the cost and place.

But count me in! ;)

Ducati UK have announced their first trackday for the year:

I'm interested to know if you guys would rather attend these events, or if you would still prefer a "DSC" organised day for whatever reason - price, location, tdo, etc?

In terms of votes, 5 definites and 26 maybes doesn't make a trackday unfortunately as it's about a third of the number we'd need!

I have some other options, which I will need to go away and plan, but you guys are welcome to discuss in the mean time...

Must admit I dont like the idea of the 1st session being grouped in mixed ability, with transponders, to sort out lap times and then put in to slow, medium and fast groups. This is not a trackday.

The risk of accidents with mixed ability/speed groups is well known and something I wouldn't participate in.

The last time I did a track day with FE, albeit a weekender, they still ran 3 groups, novice, inters, fast, and then after the first day they posted what groups you would be in the next day.

I imagine it would be like this but on a quicker scale. Ie after the first session they would jiggle the groups about.

Though I have been wrong about many things so this could well be another.
