I am thinking of organising a track day, and I am looking at about £30-£40 for two sessions (10am to 1pm and 2pm to 5pm) including a buffet lunch?
The circuit is about 800m-1km in length, in Somerset, right next to the A303 (no, not Thruxton!), and at the Haynes Motor Museum. There are a variety of layouts, and it would be individual timed runs rather than several on track at the same time, minimising accident risk.
Numbers will be kept low to ensure everyone gets enough track time.
I may be able to work some sort of deal whereby you would have access to the museum too if that would be of interest? Well worth the visit...!
Nothing is booked yet, but I want to gauge interest, and depending on interest I was thinking of first week or two in Spetember on a Sunday or Saturday?

I'd be interested too.. just to see Wishywashyman take The Shed around, all burning remoulds and bits of fibreglass falling off Seriously though, the Scoob needs a little workout from time to time so yes please. Museum also. Do you know if there would be a requirement for helmets to be worn? Also what about being able to take passengers around? Look forward to more info. BTW Wishy - We're definitely up for Gurston on 20th. |

Helmets are a definate.
Passenger, yes, but only one, and they too must be helmeted up too.
Response has been great in total (the Dreamracers mailing list and forum got a post too), and it looks good for at least one day - full details to follow!

After careful thought.I dont tink the shed would make the first corner ....remoulds and flapping fibreglass in the wind.
Is ther sapce for just spectators as I would'nt mind seeing pretzel make a fool of himself.........mind you he does'nt need atrack days for that.
For me it would be entrance to the museum and spectating.

I wouldn't mind spectating aswell. I don't think you really want to see a 3ton motorhome trying to break the track record and besides I dont really want the underside to be lit up by sunlight after going round the first bend a little bit to quick. |

Yeah, spectating is allowed - £5 inc lunch and then you get entry to the museum at group rate of £5, or just turn up, have a look thru the fench with others and pay normal entry to the museum - well worth it anyway if you havent been!

Hi Dreamracers, Tried to contact you a couple of times off forum via e-mail but to no avail. Maybe a problem with my system  or have you been on holiday? Anyway, I have the package you sent to me for this event but have not been able commit until now. I am still keen. Is it too late to book? Pretzel |
