I may, but i'd be nervous because i haven't been to a meet before or anything!

But Brands Hatch is 40 miles away from me so it'd be rude if i didn't make the effort...

But then again i'd be too scared if i stacked my car!

Come along dude :) - Be cool to meet you and just take it at your own pace, it's a novice day :) - I've never done a track day in my life. We all gotta start...and don't worry, me and Ben don't bite. My car does bleed occasionally though so you'll have to excuse that :p

Im interested, ill check the small print and see if id be able to take part, most trackdays that ive looked at require you to have held a license for 12month Min.

If a large number of OcUK members do sign up and it turns into a proper meet ill come regardless and get some on-track photos. :)
 
I may come as a speccy, but if it were for 2 wheels I'd definitely be in. Unless I get myself something a bit more exciting and RWD I doubt I'll bother as the 147, whilst a lovely car, isn't really something I'd be interested in thrashin round a track... unless it were the GTA of course ;)
 
Id be up for this, will have the new car so will be taking it easy ;)

EDIT - Im all for learning etc but you only get 3 x 20 minutes :S

I wouldn't say no to being a spec, means I get to extend my camera skills...and steal any big lenses you have Jake for getting pics of cars on track. :D

Well, I'd just have to steal the Canon for the day...as my 200mm would not be enough reach to be honest.

I can only go if it's free to spec though. I see it's £20 to be a passenger (passenger cost + helmet hire), which would be tempting, but can that be done on the day?

My longest is 200mm, but I'll probably be able to get a 300mm for the day, I'll let you know :)

Not sure, I'm going to book once this eBay sale goes through (some point by Sunday) if I have the option I'll bung a passenger on so you can come round with me if you want :)
 
Oh, I thought you had some real lenses. :p

I could always just rent a mofo lens for a few days. :D

Ok, well I'll stop spamming up this thread, passenger ride could be interesting...

All guests must be booked in advance. These prices are only applicable at time of booking.

I wonder, is that per person you bring or per passenger ride...hmmm

I'll leave it up to you, unsure if I can make it at the moment, got lots of interesting job things going on lately...also only just realised it's mid week, not a weekend.

Like I said I should be able to borrow a 300mm for the day, and I could always just buy an extender making it 600mm...good enough? :p

I'll talk to you tonight about the passenger ride :) - and I've just booked the day off work :D
 
Im interested also... but would have to get some alloys for the day steelies would send me straight into the gravel!

also i will have to see what my schools time table is like because i would have to take the day off
