DSC Trackday - Cadwell - 28th/29th June 2010
 

Right you lot, it's time to book it before you lose it-the clubs trackday is in serious danger of not happening after this year because basically most people seem to want to book at the very last minute-and the club cannot afford the risk. I may have to open it up to all and sundry on Jap 4's which I really don't want to do-but possibly needs must
So, I advise you to get to this years event because I don't think it will happen again-which will be a crying shame but there it is............

Now Ray asked on another thread:

No trackday fever yet?? , what's the score?

Is WJB instructing?-YES
Guido is doing the pics I think.-Definately
Will DUK bring some bikes to thrash?-YES
JHP coming?-YES

So be there or forever regret that you missed it.

John

John can you confirm this years format

Is it
Monday - Ducati Bikes Only
Tuesday - DSC members can ride any bike

Just checking as a little Birdie has told me Dallas has got himself a RSV-R V4

Preaching to the converted here John.......need to get it advertised outside of the DSC IMHO.

I know Steve (Topitoo) had worked hard on posters etc but was told can't use this can't use that, so as far as I know gave up

If it's full of Jap 4s it just as well be any old trackday, so we've lost anyway!

The Hants crew have been booked for ages as has our accommodation

Booked for me and Louise before xmas when it was cheaper.

C'mon you lot.......it's a no brainer.

Thanks Monty. Looking forward to it......

Our local Aprilia dealer have a rsvr 4 demo, one of the batch used for a track
launch day.......
I know the manager well and while there buying some oil he chucked me the keys. :)
One word describes the rsvr4.. Moto gp bike on the road... which it was designed for.
What a lot of bike for the £'s imho :)

Format is as you say Kev, Monday 28th Ducati Only, Tuesday 29th Members on any bike.

And Roy, yes I know I am preaching to the converted-you lot have booked yonks ago-it's all the others-you wouldn't believe how many people will come rushing in with a couple of days to go. The trouble with that is you just can't rely on it and the club cannot afford it. It's really irritating when commercial trackdays get booked up months in advance and yet the same people want to book ours 2 days before the off......................

Rant over-I'm just getting to old and grumpy for all this stress................

John

Guilty :( Totaly forgot to book this with all the moving back to the UK and getting into DD etc etc, but issue is now resolved and my booking is in :)

all booked both days fast group

:)

make sure you leave that R at home pullen ;)

I hope to book both days if there are still places left,
just need to wait until the weekend when my wife is
back home. . . :)

Just booked my place for Monday, would like to do both days but difficult with work etc. Looking forward to it already.

There i was thinking you might like to take a ride on it Paul,

Just persuaded a M8 ( Rege ) to book the Tues on his Aprillia.

Any ISC guys want to join us on this day as we are all M8's ?


Craig

I've just booked the Monday in the fast group with my lill DD bike. I wouldn't trust myself with the 749. :eek:

Now that's better-see all you needed was a little prod-and as for you Mr Pullen-well what can I say-you were usually the first one to book...................

See you there Paul and everyone else.

John

I can resist anything but temptation!!

Wish I could say the same , Monty;)

I will send a further prod later

Just emailed you Monty.:)

I'll be bringing some folks down from Scotlandshire for the event - just can't wait, I love this event! :devil:

Mart;)

Sadly I can't as its always around my daughters birthday so would be in real trouble!

Just bring her along as well Ozz-tell her it's a nice day out...................

John

Even worse this year its between daughter 1 and daughter 2's birthdays! They hate bikes. They run off when they think I am starting mine up!

Yep, booked yonks ago.

I've put my head in the lions mouth elsewhere, it might get a bit more interest or attract a load of nay sayers:devil: :lol:

Years ago you had to book early or you didn't get a place.

The trackday is pretty much a must have/must do for me.

If support is waning just go for a Ducati only day and can the other bike second day IMHO.

Just needs a bit more promotion perhaps...........oops I could be sticking my head above the parapet again:eek:

Ray.

I am going to one of the late bookers unfortunatley / hopefully. If all goes well I will not be working from the end of this month until September. If no work, its trackdays and racing all summer.

That was in the days of a much larger membership, not sure what it is now Ray but I would guess 50% of those days or less:(

What's happened to the AGM this year, thought it was a good place to hold it ???

That's true Gordon is has reduced, but also 5 years ago we creamed off 50% of our guaranteed trackday entrants and sent them DD racing-it's been getting harder ever since.

John

I think quite a few still go as it's good practice for later in the year

That is true and if i can get the time out i will book a place! :)

I'm working on It ......:D

I've booked the two days off work so will be there with the cameras again.

If Steve (aka Topi Too) needs pics to do a poster/ad then let me know mate. Like has been said it needs publicising as it is a great day if you're a Ducati owner regardless of the politics that have gone in the past within the club.

It'd be a great shame if it weren't to continue, not only cos of the event but also as an accolade to all the graft that John (Monty) has put in over the years.

Hello Guido

Thankyou for the offer of pictures, however that TBH was only part of the issue/problems
anyway moving on I have redone this poster yet again and attached a low resolution picture.
As there has been no response from the MT to date the best I can do is supply a link of a
Hi res PDF file that you can all print out at will if you so wish.
Unfortunately I do not have access to any printers otherwise I would have printed some out myself.

This is the biggest event in the DSC calendar the impression I get there are only a select few
who even know this is happening . . .

I am sorry to say it's shamefull :mad: and it's not the first time.



TopiToo

Brilliant Steve, high res linky please and I'll put it up in the shop and at Loomies :)

TopiToo you personal message box is full :(

just had a clear out sorry should be fine now

just empied mine as well, wondered by Monty had not replied to my pm, looks like it never went. Sent again now Monty but still no reply, are you going a bit deaf in your old age, DO YOU WANT ME TO SPEAK UP A BIT FOR YOU?

Weejohnyb

Anyone inspired by the BSB high flyers over the mountain this weekend?

Hope the weather is as good as it was on Sunday.

Ray

Not inspired by the ones that binned it over the mountain :(

Weather is always good for the DSC trackday Ray :)

I was sat here thinking holy cr@p what have I done.
Then the wife chirped up and pointed out I won't be going as fast as they were :rolleyes:

Is it possible to fit stabilisers to a multistrada ?
:burn:

Not in the performance catalogue :lol:

Booked my place ages ago - but agree that if the monday is all makes its just another trackday - if you need to compromise then make monday Italian only?
just a thought - would rather run with MV's and Aprilias than lose it altogether

Not inspired more of a mental note to go SLOWLY over this section :eek:
Wish I could have made this one roll on next year:D

Booked on the Monday, can't manage both days as I've already booked the Friday at Croft & can't afford more days off work.
Do we get confirmation of the booking closer to the event with details or only the automated receipt of payment?
What time do people usually get there on the Sunday evening?
