Default PERFORMANCE FORD Trackday - Brands Hatch - NEXT WEEK!

Just a little reminder for anyone that's not heard about our trackday, and fancies getting to grips with Paddock Hill at Brands Hatch next week, Wednesday April 19th.

Brands Hatch is possibly the most famous racetrack in the world and here's your opportunity to tackle it in your own car and follow in the wheel-tracks of racing legends!

Performance Ford will be there on the day in our project cars and so will our snapper, capturing the action for a forthcoming feature and we'll also be making a nuisance of ourselves capturing the days happenings for a future project, so either way, you're very likely to become famous!

All drivers who book will also recieve a host of useful freebies in our PF Goodie bag worth over £30, including a picture CD of your car taken whilst out on track, Millers Octane booster, Meguiars cleaning gear and a host of other PF gifts. So, apart from having a brilliant day of driving, you’ll also leave with a little more than you might at other trackdays you’ve been too!

There are novice, intermediate and advanced groups available, allowing you to be on circuit with drivers of a similar ability and cars of the same pace. Driving standards, weather and numbers, permitting, they’ll be an open pit lane in the afternoon!

Booking directly with our trackday associates, MotorSport Vision means you’ll get the best possible trackday for you, at the best price (£175). Places are very limited though, so book now and you could experience the thrill of driving over the grid and then discovering how awesome Paddock Hill Bend really is!

To book visit: www.motorsportvision.co.uk/performanceford (Click on Performance Ford Trackday and either Novice, Intermediate or Advanced)


For anyone coming from further afield we've also sorted out a special offer at a nearby country house.

The Georgian mansion of Brandshatch Place, just one mile from the Brands Hatch Circuit, is one of the finest country houses in Kent, with a superb spa and a fine dining restaurant awarded two AA rosettes for exceptional cuisine.

If you stay there before or after the Performance Ford Track Day on April 19 you will be able to save up to 40% with our exclusive offer.

One night’s luxury accommodation with full English breakfast will cost just £54.50 per person or £84.50 per person if you wish to include a three-course dinner.
The price includes complimentary use of the hotel’s superb Spa and Health & Leisure Club, with heated indoor pool, steam room, gym and squash court.
For more details or to book please call Hotel Reservations on 01474 875 000 quoting Performance Ford. You can also contact Central Reservations on 0845 458 0901 or e-mail: enquiries@handpicked.co.uk

*Offer (based on two sharing a standard double/twin room) valid April 18 and 19, 2006, subject to availability of allocated rooms. A single supplement applies.

Hope to see you there!

Dave

Can't afford £175.

Are spectators allowed? If so how much?

Yep, as mentioned guys, spectators are more than welcome and are FREE, so there's no reason not to pop along!

Lee, Might be able to do that passenger ride swap we said about, what was it 3, 4 years ago? LOL

The Kent RSOC are also running a track evening until about 8pm. So you can watch/ take part in track action ALL day.

I don't think so, they are seperate. You have to contact the Kent RSOC for that.

Too expensive for a "Non Open Pit" day in my opinion.

Groups are a pain, especially if you have problems. You end up with so little track time.

Open Pit Lane days are so much better.
