Irrelevant Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 It's about £300 I think. Powder Puff hired it recently. Ask him if nobody else comes along with info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powderpuff Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 You need to talk to David Pattison - course secretary - 07976 878652 (I try to phone at lunch time so as not to disturb David at work) It's £450 for the day from memory. The name's Puff, Powder Puff N7XTC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSL Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Itchin to try it out now its nearly ready then Rob I would take it out on the road a good few times in the dry 😬 to get used to the gear change, light clutch, revs etc, not to mention the power difference 😳 Bear in mind that when it breaks tyre traction, due to the free reving nature of the motor it will spin up very quickly from there on, with big sideways consequences unless pointed more or less in a straight line at that time Enjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robmar Posted November 13, 2007 Author Share Posted November 13, 2007 DSL - hence the desire to first try it somewhere with a lack of oncoming traffic first 😬 you interested in coming along showing me how it all works, bring one or several of your cars 🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Area Representative Nick Chan Posted November 13, 2007 Area Representative Share Posted November 13, 2007 Rob, It cost us £410 for a weekday when we hired it in May or June (Tues/Wed/Thurs only) for upto 10 cars to go on. Or for a Saturday when its a testday I think and around 35-40 cars can attend its closer to £600 with an MSA chappie who came along to test us for noise ☹️ Nick The BEC has gone - now onto an R400!!

robmar Posted November 14, 2007 Author Share Posted November 14, 2007 ok - those on here I have noted, plus a couple off line not actually booked yet, but looking likely to be in December sometime will let you all know Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robmar Posted November 16, 2007 Author Share Posted November 16, 2007 OK talked with David yesterday, process is nice and simple was looking at 11th December, Will be run as 2 * 5 car sessions, one in the am and one in the PM. Due to the lack of light it was suggested 9-12 and 1-4 with 2 batches of cars. Cost will be £225 per session or for the mathematically challenged 45 quid each per session. Unlimited drivers but just 5 cars so far I have the following people interested Adrian Williams David Nelson Darren Luke (possibly) Mr A10ROX Malcolm Danny Boy WindyCat- With Mr Windy? Mr Kipper Jeff Smith Does the date work for everyone, and if so what is everyones preference (I suspect the Pm session).

Englishmaninwales Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Rob 10 cars for the whole day at £450 is better value, rather than 5 per session. There is plenty of track time even with 10 cars. Malcolm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robmar Posted November 16, 2007 Author Share Posted November 16, 2007 Malcolm - that is just what Dave Patterson told me, I assumed it was always like that Jeff Noted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian Williams Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Rob Dates fine, agree with Malcolm that 10 cars for the day is a better than 2 lots of 5 cars per half day. Adrian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Englishmaninwales Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Rob Ive done several of these days at Curb, and it has always been 10 cars for the whole day (unless they've suddenly changed the rules!) malcolm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
