Track days at Spa on the 3rd April too.

Not a bad price

Weather might be touch and go that early

Tempted for a double header

[sonny]

The Lotus needs to pop its Ring cherry...

132dB drive by limit.... that seems loud, is it?

[sonny]

Sounds fair..

Prob to attract the R8 boys

[PJC]

Lol, it was me who who got black flagged at Donny.

[W8PMC]

Was looking at that & the July one. Problem was IIRC, they're only really afternoon sessions aren't they?

Sent Phil an email to see if he fancies a hoon across.

Thats right, you rebel

[MR8te]

Do you guys take insurance out or is it largely unnecessary ?

[HYFR]

£100 per £10k insured and its only 1st party
Makes it pricey

[MR8te]

Yeah I just found that out….but I bet if your spinning into the tyres at speed it would sound suddenly cheap!!

[HYFR]

What tyres?

At the ring, it's ARMCO, €1000 per metre

[MR8te]

Ouch..So in reality how many accidents are there? I've done lots of motor bike track days and most of the spills are people being just plain daft but whats it like with cars?

[HYFR]

It's not bad.
On a TF day, there will be plenty, but they are whacky races

On a closed trackway, no more than any other trackday

The Green Hell, demands respect

It indicates its open pit lane all day on that link?

I'm looking into doing a nurburgring track day this year - was looking at the Destination Nurburgring event which is actually on 2nd/3rd July so I assume multiple track day outfits at the same time.
