I am very disapointed as I wanted the new track, if not then the DD track would have been good. Now down to third choice. Still a day out with the biike .

They were still working down at Club/Abbey at 6.30 last night and a load of Porche supercup transporters outside last night so it looks as if they are pushing to get the "Bridge" circuit ready

Yes it will be great to get together, yes a great track, but as this was not as advertised I feel cheated as FE should have informed us or at least not mislead us in the first instance.

My pdf shows the international and GP circuits which I assumed as the new GP circuit as I am not familiar with Silverstone at all.:(

Would have prefered the new layout and I do feel let down. This will be my second outing with FE. The first I was very impressed and now not at all impressed.

With Brands coming up its just an excuse to get out and make sure everything is working ok. Oooh and have some fun too.

Feel free to pop by and say hello Yellow DD bike #69.

Are there garages etc available ? Never been to Silverstone before.

Mark.

Garages are good as you would expect from FI pits etc if they are open/built!!:) Restaurant just at the back of them and good easy acces in and out again subject to JCB's etc.

I'll more than likely say hello as not sure if my bikes going to be ready yet.

Skids and co usually grab a garage or two at the far end near to copse( 1st corner)/pit lane exit
The current pits/garages have not been touched as they will build a new complex between Club and Abbey next winter for F1

Well it's now official the bike will not be ready in time:( Parts arrived in good time or so they thought but ony inlet valves so after a suggestion to phone dealers it would appear they are like hens teeth and JHP has got 10 on backorder.

So I find myself without a bike a trackday that was not as advertised and no idea of when the bike will be fixed:mad:

Oh and I wrote to FE and have not heard anything so it looks like I'll be driving up guys so see you all there.;)

What are you short of ?? Pistons ?

Ray 19-Mar-2010 10:31

I'll maybe call in to see who is about if I get the chance.

I'm on the Stowe circuit doing a sprint, at least if it rains I'll have a roof over my head:D
