at first it was a R/R day at AVA...............the piss up on the satdy would be sound and loads of time to recover on the sundy before driving back home,track days are good for people that have cars that wont fuck up...........anyway it just seems to be draging on a bit now so i'll have a run up if the weather's good over the xmas hols...............

I can arrange it as a RR day only pete but thought the english folks wanted or would be attracted by more of a weekend kinda thing.

we can give the track day thing a miss if you/people want?

nothing is set in stone so just want ideas/thoughts

Just trying to get my head round how long this is going to take to get there and back and how to do it

Its going to take at a minimum 8 hours Driving, thats with no trafic or problems ect probebly more like 10 to 12 hours

So if i set off Friday morning i will get to AVA Late afternoon early evening lock the car up and get booked into a hotel ready for the morning

spend the day at AVA and then head into town bite to eat and an earlyish night ready for the track!

up for the track at the track untill 4:30 and then set off home, should be in buy about 1:00am Monday morning

thats going to be some mission

South east kent put it this way i could go to the Nurburgring and back in the time it will probebly take to get to AVA

Convoy sounds great but i will be trailering the car as i will be doing the track day aswell so will need other tyres tools ect

saying that if the track day doesnt go ahead i will be up for a convoy defo just cant see you folowing the Izusu for long than 10 mins

Who is on the list so far then i will start people just keep adding

Rapidcossie/Euan - Saph cos
Gatecrasher/Ben - Escos "track day too"
Charlie Chalk/Radders - GTIR
Miller3/Doug - Saph cos
col cos1/Colin - 3dr cos

Sorry if i missed you out just add your name and if you are up for the track day aswell

Slow speeds = less burnt petrol I dont mind, Saying that, I might have to, if you got room and dont mind carry my spare set of wheels

Cheeky I know, but you dont get if you don't ask

Could shape up into being a good weekend this

Ben depending on what time you and rad get here at there are usually track nites at Knockhill most fridays during the better months.

Maybe worth looking at too

edited to say the cars can 100% percent be kept behind locked gates at the AVA compound with someone staying to watch them all nite never mind the airport security passing every 20 mins.
