I have arranged for us a club stand at the Cars and Car Conversions Action Day at Castle Combe on June 14th. I've got 12 free entry/stand passes (worth £8 each), and 6 free track passes (5 laps, worth £20 each) to give out :D :D

Passes will be given out on a first come, first served basis, and to start with, to paid-up members only. If closer to the event there are still passes spare then I may give some to non-members :)

Here is the list so far:

The entry/stand passes are for one person and car, so any passengers you bring will have to pay £8 each

Entry passes (0 remaining):

Pete C
Vega
Chiffs-boy
Bart
Jez
barryjdart
Pointblank
Cheekee
Jacko
Jeff
Smiffad
Algie

Track Passes (0 remaining):

Pete C
Bart
Jez

Cheekee

All passes (including entry) must be used before 11am, so there's no point requesting one if you aren't intending to turn up before then because you will not be allowed in. :( Please also allow time to queue :rolleyes:

Oh yeah, forgot to say, please post on this thread first and then PM me your address so I can send the passes, this way there can be no squabbling, anyone who has already asked, address please! :)

Go on then, give me a track pass ;)

Jez
29-05-2003, 19:53
I'll have a track pass please! - It'll have to be before 2pm though - got to dash off in the afternoon :)

Thinkk i missed the bus here, but would love a stand and track pass if you still have one............if not DOH, may have to defect again :D

Pete C
30-05-2003, 09:55
No you didn't miss the bus mate, you're just in time :D

Sorry I didn't add you straight away, I automatically assumed you were going with the other lot :o

SMiFFAD
30-05-2003, 09:59
:thumbs:

Cool, the only reason i went with that lot of hooligans last time was i missed the boat quite badly on the track time thing....by about a month......... and Slipstream Ian had one left! :D

Plus my navigator was a member of all-torque ;)

(ian - am only joking your not all holigans! :D):wave:

Pete C
30-05-2003, 11:37
Crikey, they're all gone already :eek:

Never fear though, you can still come if you wish, it'll just cost £8 per person (1 car included in price) on the gate. Track time will cost you £20 for 5 laps and can also be purchased on the day :)

Chris_Lacey
30-05-2003, 13:12
Pete, you have a PM :(

Pete C
30-05-2003, 14:31
1 entry/stand pass and 1 track pass now available again, due to Chris_Lacey having to back out :(

Roll up, roll up! :D

EDIT: It's gone again, to Algie :)

Algie
31-05-2003, 12:18
Anyone fancy meeting up for a convoy to CCC on the day?

Last time we had seven 200's on the way to Japfest.

Alg;)

Jez
01-06-2003, 22:21
meet at chievely services again? M4 / A34 junction.

Algie
01-06-2003, 23:19
Good idea Jez, I know I can find my way there at least!

What time? (last time was a wee bit early!)

Oh yeah, one other thing Jez, any advice on preparation? I was led to believe you're a practiced hand and I'll be busting my track day cherry!

Anyone else fancy coming along?

Alg;)

We have to use our track passes by 11am. We're going to have to get to Chievely quite early - probably leave at about 7.30 - 8am. We should get to the Combe at 8.30 ish which gives us 2.5 hours to queue and get on track.

Preparation: your brakes will get mashed. Get some hard pads in there and make sure they're run in properly. If thats not possible make sure that you plenty of material on all the pads. If you're on track and the brakes start to go all mushy slow down and let them cool off. When you come to the end of your session do a lap slowly in top gear avoiding brake use, to let things cool down. :)

If anyone would like to be a passenger with me let me know - Vega, fancy a blast? - need someone with a video camera if possible :)

- dont think they will let you go on with a camera.......i asked last time and they weren't keen on things like that flying round the inside of the car ;)

I may also have a passenger spot, depending on if my usual co-pilot turns up on time, which she might not...... so a 50/50 chance of a ride.


*people who want to get in my car take their life in their own hands and i take no responsibility for soiled underclothing :D*

Oh right - I've used a camera in the past, but it was stuck to the windscreen...

SMiFFAD
02-06-2003, 09:32
think they would be ok if it was attached some how, was gonna stick one on my back shelf this time........not sure, think its just the fact your co-pilot could smack you with it on a corner! :d

1st batch of entry/stand passes posted today :)

Vega
Chiffs-boy (with Vega's)
Smiffad
barryjdart
Jez
Bart

Bart, yours is just addressed to 'SXOC Member' cos you didn't give me your real name :D

Those of you who requested track passes, these have to be collected on the day, hence why you won't get them with your entry passes, so don't panic :)

Pointblank, Cheekee, Jacko, I'll contact you separately about getting your passes to you :)

Jez
02-06-2003, 12:49
just realised I should have my new cage in for the 14th :) Really really hope its ready because it's being fitted the week before...

SMiFFAD
02-06-2003, 12:50
Groovy :thumbs: cheers mate! :D

Algie
02-06-2003, 20:32
Been having a bit of a barny with my insurance company today, they wont insure me for a 20minute track session (I offered to pay extra on top of the £730 a year they get:cry: )

Not over yet, I've got to speak to the broker tomorrow so there may be a way around it.

Any one had similar problems?

Alg;)

(And I've sorted a helemt out too!)

Pete C
03-06-2003, 10:19
I think Castle Combe might sell track day insurance for the day? Ask them, might be cheaper :)

Algie
03-06-2003, 21:07
I hadn't thought of that. I'll give them a buzz tomorrow.

My broker knocked me back today (the muppet on the phone had the cheek to try and persuade me to take a policy with another firm losing 8 months extra NCB and paying over £400 for the priveledge:tosser: )

Thanks Pete, oh by the way the pass and stuff turned up in the post today. Cheers

Alg;)

I'm thinking of going to this with Bart. I'll be deciding next week. If I go (likely), I'll be taking the camcorder and would love to do a vid as a passenger in a track car! :thumbs:

Any volunteers?

SMiFFAD
04-06-2003, 10:31
If you are allowed em, and my co pilot doesnt turn up on time, which she might not, your welcome to be scared to death in mine :D

But i dont think your allowed em loose in the car, have to be attached, so bring duct tape and strap it to the widscreen :D

Nicely
04-06-2003, 10:35
I'll have to look into this! I could put it on some padding and tape it to the dash, possibly. Alternatively, I could just not tell them...:wave:

SMiFFAD
04-06-2003, 10:38
Sounds like a plan, and as long as you dont start beating me with it and screaming at me to slow down....... :D

Nicely
04-06-2003, 10:59
Going on your last performance, I doubt this will be a problem...:p :wave: :D

Jez
04-06-2003, 11:08
I'd like to get some footage if possible - anyone wanna passenger with me? :)

Nicely

I like to live in the fast lane! I'm happy to go round with anyone who wants footage. I've got 90 minutes... :thumbs:

SMiFFAD
04-06-2003, 11:16
I wont be offended if you go with jez mate ;) probably a more interesting ride :D

Nicely
04-06-2003, 11:47
Not at all. Like I say, I'm happy to be a track junky and go with anyone! :D Obviously, could be a bit difficult if everyone's in the same session...

Pete C
04-06-2003, 11:53
They're not having sessions as such, you just queue up when you want to go on, and then they take so many cars from the queue at a time and send them on.

It would be nice to have a few 200s on at once, but I fear it may get a little too competitive ;)

Nicely, was it you who did the big boards and flyers at JapFest? Could you bring them along this time as well please? :D

05-06-2003, 09:40
What time is everyone planning to get there, recon it would be cool to get as many sx's on the track at the same time as possible :thumbs: (save any daft evos flying past on their way to the tire walls :D)

Jez
05-06-2003, 09:44
I'm going to be there for about 8.30 - 9am ish :)

Are people still meeting at chievely?

SMiFFAD
05-06-2003, 09:45

just wondering what happened to the listing for people who showed an interest in the original thread?????

Andy Dee
05-06-2003, 21:53
My luck has taken a turn for the worse.

The smoking 2***** now has a siezed rear caliper, and shagged disc to keep it company:rolleyes:

Will be doing full brake upgrade within the next week or two. I have got Z Turbo calipers for the front and have got some 3G discs that need to be converted to 4 stud.

Am desparte for standard rear calipers (or just one passanger rear and disc) :cry:

On top of that she should be going in to see a very nice man with not too far from here to sort the smoke out once and for all;)

If the car is in any way road worthy, i will be there, but i wont know till the night before:(

Have a good one guys!

Nicely
05-06-2003, 22:06
Bad luck Andy! :( Hope you manage to sort her soon.

I put you on the list as a possible to start with mate, but you never confirmed and loads of other people got in there first, sorry :(

If someone drops out you're top of the list, can't say fairer than that :)

R.Sendout
06-06-2003, 08:28

you said you were going from a diferent direction! thats why i didnt ask you:rolleyes:

Algie
06-06-2003, 13:19
Arrgh,

I leave the BB for 2 days and it starts getting busy again.

Right...

1) SXOC flyers and Promo boards (PeteC you have a PM) Grazor and The Architect put these together for Japfest, I'll ask him if he could send the layout. The Boards were huge though and my little economy printer won't be able to cope. Does any one have large (A2 or A1, I think) sized printing facilites?

2) Convoy to CCC. For those coming from London or the North a few of us are meeting at Cheiveley Sevices which are off the exit ramp at the junction of the M4 and A34. (I think it's J13 of the M4) for 7.30 - 8am :eek: after the night before I'll be a bit:wack:

I think that's it from here for now.

Well I don't know CCC at all (I've seen it once!) so I'll stay well out of your collective ways:notworthy :notworthy

And looking at your respective car specs I've got about as much chance of keeping up with you as a Vauxhall Nova with a body kit and lots of realllly cool LED's on it!

He has yet to confirm, but there may be another track pass up for grabs if anyone's game :)

Mostly, I am not looking forward to having to clean the car :(

Gonna be a good day though, Chiffs, I'm thinking of leaving a bit earlier actually, more like 06:30 :p

That way there is plenty of time to get there, I'm going to be taking an easy drive up :)

Algie
11-06-2003, 20:08
You're right mate, I won't be doing the session now as I can't arrange suitable cover.

I spent 2 hours on the phone (at work - thanks boss!) trying to get it sorted but it comes down to the fact that I can have as many goes on the track as I want on the day so they won't insure me for less than £130, B*st*rds:mad:

I was really looking forwards to this too:cry:

I'll still be coming though, does anyone fancy having a 6'2" 13 stone lump of balast next to them?

Alg;)

11-06-2003, 20:14
I sadly am gonna back out too, after the pasteing my brakes got last time i dont think they are gonna be fit to go on the track, and i cant afford to get anything done with them untill after CCC.

So there is another Free Track Pass up for grabs, i loved my last track session, but i cant risk mine and other peoples cars with iffy brakes :( (much as i would love to ;))

:cry:

Ok then mate, I've put you on the list, you'll have to come and find me on the SXOC club stand on the day to collect your pass, I'm the one with the grey S13 with the primered tailgate :o

You must arrive early, as the pass must be used before 11am, and you have to allow time to have a safety briefing and queue (for at least 30 mins!) :)

Again, sorry, they're all gone again anyway, they were snapped up within about 6 hours of me saying they'd become available.

I don't mind, but the marshalls might not let you into the Paddock without a pass :|

Trouble is Vince, unless you can give it to someone local, how will anyone else get the pass in time for the day?

I guess if you give it to Chiffs-boy, he could maybe meet someone outside the circuit? 'Cos they'll need the pass to get in. Any takers? :)

Sorry to hear about the car mate :(

Chiffs-boy
13-06-2003, 12:07
yeah will bring pass up with us. get vince up there too i hope.
4 people in a 200!! could be interesting 4 the 2 in the back.

was thinking of poss meeting anyone at that pub on the left as you turn onto the road towards cc.

any takers for vega's pass?

13-06-2003, 12:15
V sorry to hear about the car vega, :(
( i'm now feeling like a complete scavenger for grabbing an entry pass aswell )
but i'd like the pass if thats ok, meeting in the pub car park ( the cross hands i think you mean ) is fine by me. just tell me when to be there, as i might be meeting some others there as well.

Chiffs-boy
13-06-2003, 12:21
hi mate. think we are leaving about half 6 from plymouth.

That white golf was quick (quicker than me anyway) - flame spitting, 3 wheel action through the chicane - shame he stuffed into the tyre wall though... :(

Slipstream_ian
15-06-2003, 14:21
Yeah if you look at one of the photos there is a 3dr cossie with water spilling passanger side i think he hit that and they 360ed it in to the wall :(

Jez
15-06-2003, 14:24

I saw the golf hit the wall, looked bad... Anyone know any of the golf forums, probably more info there.
