What's wrong with people.

They spend all year saying we should have a track day, and then don't book a place on it when there is one???

Perhaps we shouldn't have one next year then.

My place was booked weeks ago.

It is looking very likely as we have now had trackdays for 3 years running with less than 50 people on them!

Have to agree with Neal, come on guys especially fellow DDers chance for some more practice before the 9th

Due to the low take-up of the ACU (Timed) group, this will now be merged into the Fast group, making this a 3-session trackday.

Apologies to anyone who had booked into the ACU group but unfortunately MSV were not willing to run that session with just 5 bikes in it!

This does mean that everyone will now get the usual 20 minute sessions instead of the planned 15 minute sessions, so an increase of 35 minutes of track time over the day.

If you have booked into the ACU group and have an issue with this, please call MSV direct on 0843 453 3000 to discuss your options.

Even I've booked on it!
I'm Captain slow!

[butchersdog]

Am booked in with my Aprillia RSV now it's open to all makes, I can't risk throwing my 748 down the road I'm afraid, still it is Italian See you all there

I would just like to say what a great day I had yesterday. The weather was near perfect. Thanks to Antony, Andy and Neil for the share of their tea and coffee and company.
This is only my second track day and I would advise anyone who has never done one and is thinking of doing one, to do a club one. The social side of it being an important part of it for me.
I apologise to anyone in the Novice group that I may have held up and the Novice group is where I think I'll stay but I had fun.

I'd second that - a great day out. Although I was in pit 9 - serves me right for getting there early. Actually I camped so was in the pits by 7am! Watching the sun go down over Brands Hatch, with a glass of dandelion and burdock in my hand, was a rare treat. Got up early, changed my brake pads, put the fairing back on, gave it a kiss etc...

I was on the little 620 Ducati, red and black fairing, underseat exhaust. Black and blue wolf leathers and riding around in the novice group. I was lapping at about 1.18 according to the other half which for me, is a new lap record. So i'm chuffed. David in Hampshire sets himself a new lap record. Simple things in life I seem to remember a 996 out there too... Did anyone catch my green moment?

Just a thought, any chance that all the club gather in the same area of the pits next time? I'm sure you can book them just like Parkinsons did. And when exactly is 'next time'? And a T shirt - must get a matching Ducati T shirt. What a tart I am.

Thanks all

David
