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.
Hi Euan

when you say track nights at knockhill you mean as in me and radder on the track at night yeah? might just come up for the week how big is your drive Euan
You said you would be here by Friday nite?

Track nites usually 6-8 or 7-9

Only problem i can see with running it along with the rsoc is that there might end up too many cars and become a real long day also people would only get the one run if there was any problems.

As it stands , this is the plans we have for the weekend

Saturday Rolling Road day at AVA, maximum of 30 cars on the day.

Muirkirk , where Kames circuit is located , has a caravan park which is some 200 yards from the circuit where you can pitch your tent up, . There is a small funtion hall in the caravan park where we can arrange for some entertainment on the nite ,

Sunday, there will be the West of Scotland regional day , with the static show and the track. Format for the track , will be run in a clockwise direction over 3 flying laps 1 car at a time.maximum of 20 cars on the day to keep everyone happy , and getting plenty of track time. We are planning on having official timing gear there on the day so that you can see how your times are going through the course of the day

As for Knockhill track nites, there is a track nite at Knockhill on Friday 16th May being organised by Scottish Olde Skool Escorts ( SOSE) and at this moment in time , its an Olde Skool event only, but people could go up to spectate no problem. I couldnt say wether this will be made open to other cars at this time

So a whole weekend of track, rolling road, static shows, and drink, sounds good to me

cheers

Yeah cause thats the reason.....

Am scared of putting my 400bhp car on the rollers

Or maybe i just added up the cost and worked out a track day or a rolling road day....

so figured i would do a track day instead of putting 1000 miles on the engine

So is this date a go then ? Just so i can try and sort time off work as need to switch a week with someone , and also to make sure i have a running car by then.

What happened to the idea of having it earlyer in the year before all the other rr days and show/track days start.

The RSOC day was going ahead anyway on those dates, so i can see what Euan was trying to do as it makes it more of a weekend event for the guys travelling a long way.
But it has now put it in the middle of the show/track/rr times so less people will be free for it, think the original list of names was bigger as there was less on and was a good excuse for a get together and to get cars checked over before all the rest of the stuff starts.
