Count me in.

I'm in.

EDIT: In my new e36 M3. Yee Haaaaaaaaaa.......

ill be there aswell

so will my mate as long as he can take the supra if the e30 isnt ready in time 

Alas I'm a 'No'

Lack of bobs with new gaff, and what bobs I have are better spent on new rear tyres for NCT, oil & diff fluid change, and a couple of other bits I wanna do to freshen the motor up. (including a quicker steering rack if I get a chance)

Enjoy!!

Killian

How do we pay for this?

Mick

Killian

Is it going to be necessary to be a club member then?  I didn't rejoin after all the sh*t with the forums and stuff.

Mick

just wondering Do you pay per driver or per car?

for instance if i took up two cars would i have to pay twice?

@ killian:

Tried to pm you but inbox is full - someones popular!!

Anyway my 535is has developed an oil leak and may not be fixed for the trackday, if i still have the 525 im thinking of bringing it, however i have a hillclimb prep'd volvo 240 ( its mint and id like to keep it that way so its not soem type of trackday slag or anything ) and i was just wondering if the 535is isnt fixed could i bring it along? Im thinking the answer will be no but i said id ask anyway! I could attach a bmw roundel to the front if it made a difference

If you can at all, ring the BMWCC office and pay in full by credit card. Or ring and tell them you're going and say you'll be paying on the day. Just so they have an idea of numbers. I paid today by card and forgot to ask how much it was.

Ken

I just rang up there and paid and it was £100 for the track day and £35 to renew my membership.

I suppose €50 ain't that bad considering.

mick

I couldnt give a fiddlers what the weather is like........I'll be there even if its snowing.........its probably the last track day I will do this year, possibly in this car, and sure a bit of rain might even make it more fun

Mick

What about a 997 Turbo?

Mick

I take it thats ok then?

mick

Hmmm would that be a derestricted toll road by any chance?

My car dynod at 344 so actually I can :)

Mick

is that 200euro for the track and 50 euro to renew? Im tempted to take it out, can i renew membership on the day?

Latest News

Mondello is currently refurbishing the hospitality suites over the pit garages. This means that sign on will happen in the room over the bar (the older building in the paddock).

Also 3 car marques are using the pit garages for training purposes, so none of these will be available on the day. Mondello has said that the Scrutiny shed at the back of the paddock will be open if anybody needs it.

People have got used to the Porsches sharing the day with us. This is not the case on Sunday, we are the only club booked in

So get there early so we can maximise our time on track. I will be there at 12

Mondello has cameras covering all of the track, this system will be active and recording on Sunday. I have been a Steward at a Mondello race meeting and have used the system to judge on an racing incident and can say that there is no part of the track that is not covered by at least two cameras from different angles.

So to quote "Hill Street Blues"

"Lets be careful out there"

Oh roll on the weekend! Ive been like a school girl about this since I heard about it!!! Thanks ger for the reminder message during the week. See you all at the weekend.

Rob

just a quick comment on whats dangerous driving..

i will be driving my 635 which is manual and has a l.s.d  and to be sure the car will be sliding a bit but in saying that i do consider myself to be very respectful of other track users and will be sunday driving(so to speak) when i am around them.

is that acceptable?

a few b.d.d`s back i was out in the 323 baur and was sliding around a bit but only when it was safe and i dont think i upset anyone(or there was no mention of it anyway)

School Girl? Really?

Can't wait myself. Should be a fun day. Is anybody meeting up afterwards?

Also a reminder about the money people owe towards the Killian fund from the karting day in Mondello last month. It's not much, but if you don't pay up I'll break your legs. (Well okay not your legs, but I'll break your wiper blades).

Driving Safety

One of the things that everybody respects is the overtaking on the straights rule.

But when the driver of a faster in straight line car does not acknowledge that there are other drivers faster in corners or later on the brakes than him, this leads to a queue of frustrated drivers, so if you are in this situation, back off on the straight, move well out of the way and let the quicker drivers through. You will then have an opportunity to see the driving lines and braking points of the quicker drivers.

We do not want to have to bring people in for overtaking on the brakes. It may be the way it is done in racing, but NOT on track days. Equally we do not want to have to bring people in for creating traffic jams! Find your own space there are 2.2 miles of track for you to enjoy.

I dont see why not if you have a helmet on.........how will they know you have crutches?

Anyway, if someone has an off thats significant enough to cause the type of deformation of the car that would cause leg injuries, it probably won't matter....you are going to have far more severe injuries than a mere broken leg.......and anyway, your leg is already broken so whats the problem?
