Details - Llandow Circuit, Bridgend, South Wales. http://www.llandow.com/

40 cars - first come first serve (payment must be made in advance) with open pit lane, with a limit of 10 cars on the track at any one time.

If your interested and have to travel, looking at staying the night or something - please PM me and i'll do my best to find you a good place to stay.

How do we book?

At that price cant say no...

Phill

Your best bet is to log onto SW-CC and book up through there - there is a link to the paypal page.

I'll lift the link off and drop it in here later also.

maybe im blind and didnt see it, but when is it?

Phill

We've had to make it for 'members only' so you need to either be a member or pay £10 membership to become one.

It will all be in the paypal page once i've got it sorted!!

It's the Saturday the 29th of September mate.

29th September.

I'd imagine it'll be payed up SW-CC members only (Such as myself :wack:).

I was at SW-CC's Trackday 2 @ Llandow running the Starlet, but I had overheating and boost pipe issues, so I didn't get much time on track. The pics I took can be found By following this link (http://www.digi-fish-photography.co.uk/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=26) :thumbs:.

SW-CC's events always pull good numbers, the last track event saw all 40 slots filled with about the same numbers again showing up throughout the day to spectate.

I will be there, taking photo's and hooning about in the Starlet :wack:

Ah Mr Monkfish we meet again :D

Juz, what brings you here? :wack:

...I'm a member of sxoc. Do I have to pay for sw-cc membership to go on this?

Yes. Memberhsip is £10/year, which means you still get a trackday for £70 :D.

Not sure how many of you would have been around Llandow, but I think it's a little short for high powered 200's. I'm sure Spesh will comment though :thumbs:

Yeah you'd need to be a member but it's only a tenner and the membership is for a year - you'd get discount off every track day and rolling road day we organise plus we have several places such as the local Sextons who give discounts.

I'm in, taking the Scimitar as I think it'll suit the track :)

FullMetalGasket

12-09-2007, 08:08

I'm seriously tempted at that silly price - Especially as it's less than an hour from me...
By suited to less high powered stuff would you say it's a good outing for my 7? :D

Phill

12-09-2007, 09:42

It's a great little track, more suited to light NA stuff than big heavy stuff like SKylines to be honest.

Last one we did I was out with my mate in his missus Mitsubishi Colt and an R32 GTR running stage one mods and cut slicks couldn't shake us!! lol.

Llandow is a great track for nippy little cars - I had great fun in the 5 there earlier in the year :D

The builders claim they'll be leaving me room and I've just had a very :D sideways lunchtime*, so will join up and put myself on the list as soon as poss :thumbs:

mammoth

21-09-2007, 19:41

FullMetalGasket

22-09-2007, 18:50

That's good news as if I do book it's going to be on Friday as the car still isn't quite fixed :annoyed:

28-09-2007, 09:43

Added your name to the list mate. I don't have any Pug stuff but i'm sure there will be someone with something for you.

It's looking worryingly damp in the forcast for tomorrow :( I'm getting worryied I'll have to take the 180 now as I simply can't put the power down in the 7 when it's damp :D
The muscles in my forearms are aching now and I only drove it about 30 miles today for the final tuneup/jetting on the carbs :wack:

mammoth

29-09-2007, 18:18

I had a really good time today.
Thanks to the guys who organised it and thanks to everyone there for not shouting at me for being a track noobie.

Feck me that was good fun! :D
Massive thanks to the guys who did the organising, I loved it :notworthy

Have also discovered I need to build up my arm muscles before I attempt another bumpy trackday with the 7 - I'm totally knackered :wack:

You were doing well out there, seemed to have the measure of everyone in the stint that I saw. :)
Nice move on the black merc coming into the bus stop, it had the quality of montoya or hamilton about it. :D

Looked a good day, didn't make it down until gone 3 due to some unexpected delays earlier int he day.

Phill

Cheers for everyone who came along - managed to get the full 40 in the end.

Brilliant spread of cars on they day - everything from a Mk2 Escort through to a Porsche 996 Turbo.

Weather was good - cool, overcast but DRY! lol.

Really enjoyed driving the Integra - passing the limit of the tyres on a regular basis!!

Hope to organise a few more in the new year - will keep you guys posted.

I can confirm that FMG was quick around there having followed behind him for a while :eek:

mike, was yours the red 106 or the white 205? or neither ?

FullMetalGasket

Mikesx13

01-10-2007, 09:26

mike, was yours the red 106 or the white 205? or neither ?

Yeah dumbass :rolleyes: :D

I wasn't out there much as it's the last outing of the 205 before selling it so was trying to be a bit cautious :(

I reckon I managed about 40 laps in all so still great value :nod:

Which R32 was yours Mammoth?
