Do we know how long each we get, becuase my calculations show only 15mins each for £70. Or is that 15mins in each of the two cars?

IIRC, it's 15 minutes actual driving in *each* car (FWD and RWD), plus the passenger time whilst the other two drivers in your "team" are driving. That adds up to 1 1/2 hours on the track, plus instructor sessions.

** Just checked with them - yep, it is how I remembered it

Steve_Perry, 1,

Do I take it to mean you're OK with any date then?

 

[Maff]

Thats fine
As far as I know i'm OK with pretty much any date.

Yup at the moment, any of those dates is fine with me.

Dates are fine, bar the fact they are all weekends towards the end of Jan / start of Feb which is the vaigue few weeks that I should be moving house..............let me know when you require a definate answer.

OK, here's the new list - update or add your details and copy it to your reply and we can try and get a firm date from CC. At the moment, I would say that Sunday 1 Feb is looking good as both AM and PM slots are free. Richard, is 1 Feb a real problem for you? If so, I think we would have to go forward to 7/8 Feb.

Flyer ................. 1, Sun, Any after 18/01
Steve_Perry ....... 1, Any, Any
GrahamC230K ..... 1, Any, Any
sym .................. 1, Sun, Any
Maff .................. 2/3, Any, Any
RichardM ............ 1,
mayoga .............. ?,
doriant ............... 1,
Ian B Walker ....... 1,
kikkthecat .......... 1,
steve_bcs .......... 2,
jimmy ................ 1,

That makes 14 - we either restrict it to 12, or try and expand it to 24 and have am and pm sessions - don't know which is best really?

Hi Sasha

I've added you to the list, we just need the other chaps to let us know about the dates and I can then book it (and stump up the £822.50 <gulp>).

As long as it was Sunday PM on the 1st Feb I'll be ok, or Saturday morning on the 31st.

Andrew,

I'm certainly in for this one - especially after not getting to meet everyone at the GTG in August. Sorry for the slow reply though, work being mad at the moment.

Any date suits and might bring the wife too - if she promises to behave! ! !

Guy

 

[iced-out]

HI,
Im new here, had mercs for the past couple of years just never knew the place existed,
Id be up for this, with possibly a mate as well, so thats 2. Can you let me know how long it would take from south london to get up there, or if theres anyone else from south london going?

Cheers,
Im sure ill have a few posts asking questions and possibly answering a few quite soon

 

[sasha]

I'll be coming from South London (Blackfriars)

 

[GrahamC230K]

Do we have a date yet?

Particularly bad dates for me are weekend of Jan 10/11th and the following weekend (house move).

 

[Mark300SL]

Count me in

I'll try and persuade the wife too !

Mark

OK, just flying through - will *definitely* get to this tomorrow. From the numbers, we are going to need am and pm sessions, so that could make the dates a little more difficult. Will post back tomorrow ....

 

[sym]

Andrew . . I'm away for the next week, so if you are booking then just put me down for whenever . . Cheers S.

 

[Flyer]

OK chaps, all booked!!

Sunday, 1st February 2004
Two sessions: AM is 0930 to 1230, PM is 1300 to 1600

We have 24 places available, which we need to fill. Obviously, if we don't get to 24, then the cost will go up. The cost for each session is £700+VAT, so £1,645 for the day / 24 = £68.54ish each.

Here's the list of current skidpanners:

Name             No        AM/PM    Status
---------------- --------- -------- -----------------
Flyer            1         PM       CONFIRMED
Steve_Perry      1
GrahamC230K      1
sym              1                  
Maff             2/3
RichardM         1         PM
mayoga           ?
doriant          1
Ian B Walker     1
kikkthecat       1
steve_bcs        2
jimmy            1
Sasha            1
Gizmo750         1/2
iced-out         2
Mark300SL        1/2

I make that a minimum of 18, maximum of 21, so almost there!

So, for now, I just need to know which session you want to drive in (AM/PM) and confirm how many places you want. Payment will have to be sent early Jan as that is when I have to pay CC.

Should be fun

Cheers
Andrew
