There's a rolling road session in Enfield the same morning (Sat Apr 29th!)

Is Mondello morning or afternoon?

Trackday is afternoon according to earlier posts - RR is from 9am - you're welcome to stay over again if you wish.

Will def be attending the trackday... hopefully in a 325 ;) Its a pity about it only being the national and the price hike and all; but its still worth it.

Killian I'm willing to pay up front if that helps (as I'm sure are others).

Thanks, Ken.  Can't confirm anything yet until I get exam dates finalised.

How far/long (time wise) is Enfield from Mondello?

KB - I know you can't get new membership on the day, but what about people renewing theirs?

I guess renewing should be fine - the 'ban' on new memberships is to remove the numpty element.
PM me for more if necessary

Enfield to Mondello is about 30 minutes cross country...

Coming from the west.Exit new M4 for Enfield through Toll booth. Turn right to cross over motorway to Johnstown Bridge. 0.9mile Turn Left in Johnstown bridge There is a Hotel on the corner. After 1.4miles turn Right. Another 3.6 miles T junction turn Right. 0.6miles Timahoe Turn Left. 3.3 Miles enter Choill Dubh. 0.9miles Dagwelds pub on left hand side. Straight across Caution you are crossing a major road. 3.0miles Mondello on Right

Roughly a total of 13.7miles

The Hotel in Johnstown Bridge has a restaurant where I have eaten and I would recommend for an after track day meal. Dag Welds also serves food.

I am really hoping to join up...but can you clarify whether or not people can join up on the track-day? I am willing to take a day off work to pop down to get membership, and maybe a spin on track!

Ado - I'll have the forms ready on Monday.
paddy - there will be no new memberships on the day as this encourages the idiot element to come down and join up so they can get out. If you can sort out membership before then I will know who is a member even if your card etc hasn't arrived.

ahh, only BMW cars allowed. I was hoping to drive the Subaru as it is lighter and more nimble. The e39 is a better allround car but isn't really suited to track use. Anyways, i'd prefer not to subject it to that kind of abuse. It was only nct'd recently and flew through with flying colours.

Not suited to track use? Ask Fey!, I am sure he has a different opinion of that. He was throwing the thing around the last time. 

Great fun for me as a passenger. We need more 5 series anyway, damn 3 series drivers...

Sure, it will do the job, but I suppose to be honest I dont want to put it through that kind of hardship again. I do want to take part but i'd prefer not to use the e39. I'm sure Richie and Topazman know what i'm talking about.

Is it me or does the form say a €200 deposit? How much is it going to end up costing?

tis getting close lads.. I can smell the cooked brakes already!!! Can't wait to get M3 out..

I hear ya about the E39, Ado. Not the most ideal motor to have out, but better than sooooooo many other cars, it not not ideal either, if ya get me!  And if ya wanna go out, tis your only option @ the mo! Time to invest in an E30 325i 4dr SE for peanuts and strip it out / fit an LSD?
