RE: Lets book a track day!
To hire cadwell out for a midweek day it will be £3k or £4k at the weekend. Need 30 cars to make it worthwhile. £100 each with 30 cars or £135 at weekend.
Seatcupra.net hoping to do it there in November.
But with Maxxd not having anywhere near 30 cars it would be best to pick a day which suits most and all go along to it

RE: Lets book a track day!
TBH with you I bet you can get those sort of numbers if we arrange a multi-car club track day, with the likes of EC, SC, Notts Car Club, and dare I say it CN, and I'm sure we all know plenty of people who'll be interested either friends of friends, family or owners club folk aswell.
Before anyone says anything, no I havent been smoking anything today lol

Understeer: when you hit the wall with the front of the car.
Oversteer: when you hit the wall with the back of the car.
Horsepower: how fast you hit the wall.
Torque: how far you take the wall with you.

RE: Lets book a track day!
Best be IMO would be to pick a day, pick a track and then have people book on it if they want to go.
Bear in mind it's not cheap!
Cost of day
Cost of petrol
Cost of wear on parts such as tires and brakes

RE: Lets book a track day!
IIRC a day at Cadwell cost me;
Tracktime £160
Fuel £70 - Think it was approx 8mpg I worked out at one point.
New Pads £25
Before the day it cost me £75 for braided hoses, £10 for uprated brake fluid, so it soon starts mounting up, and with that, I got a bit of a good deal with a spare pair of wheels and tyres.
Rassssssssspppp

I think the one at Oulton is good, price is cheap at £99, it aint too far away so full not gonna be too much and they have some nice run off's if you make a mistake, unlike cadwell!
And its a good track with both quick and twisty parts

RE: Lets book a track day!
I wish i owned a car 
I used to budget on £100 fuel including getting to cadwell, and the time i went with matty was the only time i didnt have to go looking for more fuel!!
Always fucked front tyres up, ruined brake fluid, ruined front pads, last time the brake dust ruined the front wheels as well!
But its worth it
Peugeot 306 1.9 DT - Crashed
Peugeot 306 1.9 DT - Sold
Peugeot 106 Rallye S2 - Slagged, Tracked Then Sold
Renault Clio RenaultSport 2.0 - Tracked Then Sold
Seat Leon FR - Broke down after 3,000 miles!! German Crap! French stuff never broke down !
