A few of us did consider this as a Christmas meet option before JR organised the Brands Hatch one. Unfortunately I can't do Brands but I could do Nov. 26th or the date we were originally thinking about in December (29th I think?) If DaveT sees this what do you reckon mate?

Last year's day at Donnington was well attended and its location is pretty central for a lot of us. Just found a link to their site and I think the 17th of Dec. might be a better bet. Thoughts anyone?

Looks like we're in business then :D We just need to sort a date. I think the 26th may be a little short notice for some. I can do it but would prefer the 17th December. 27th Decemeber is unsilenced so I guess there could be all sorts out on the track but what do others think?
Link is included below for people to check and book once we've agreed a date.

Good work Phil. Sunday 17th December still the only possibility for me. Any days between Christmas and New Year tricky for obvious reasons, unless Aunty Maud wants a blast around Donny for her christmas pressie.
