Ok. So Llandow weekend is 100% for next year. I'll get a weekend booked ASAP.
The Sunday sprint could be a challenge to fill and/or make financially attractive. I'll talk to the circuit and see what they say.
What about activities for non track people. This is something I'd like to add to the event but the location makes it hard.
Thoughts.
Blyton idea is scrapped. It's way too expensive to make work unless we had a proper team to organise.
Also. Seems likely I'll be running tow of these next year. One for the MiniTorque.com guys as well. Looooool.

I think the Sprint would be fun but if not enough people are interested then the track day is good on its own - but perhaps we could better sort Saturday accommodation for a more organised Sunday drive out?
worth asking the venue re sunday - might put a good deal together for 2 days?

good coffee and bacon sarnies we will be there whatever. As a non track driver, it still looks mighty tempting as so short and easy to learn. Would fancy a few laps TBH. Looking forward to it. Happy to help serve said coffee etc too.

Happy to help serve said coffee etc too. I'd never done a track day before and was a bit nervous about it, but it's a really easy track and not too hard on the car if you don't go apeprarrie canoe (although you can if you want!)

Good to hear, it certainly looked fun. Haven't been on track for 8 years, so a total noob (and my current car is no track car!)

Don't get too worried about skill/car. Just come along and have fun. I dont know or care what lap time I had, all I know is my brake pads were so bad I was locking the rears and the fronts weren't slowing much
Next year I feel we could try push the show and shine idea a bit further, maybe get Bonner & Fitz involved in some way. Look into getting an autojumble type thing...essentially steal all the ideas the OC have

Hi All, I'll be looking to actually go on track next year, so Llandow sounds good as you all seem to have enjoyed it immensely. As admins, my self and FFS Corders would 100% be up for helping out with organisation of stuffs. I agree with James that a show & shine type competition could be fun, but unsure how you could incorporate that into the weekend with people wanting to zoom around on track etc., as well. Horney whatever you want to do, however you want to run it, you have our support and help ready and waiting.

Horney whatever you want to do, however you want to run it, you have our support and help ready and waiting. I think this sums up the sentiment from most people on here, I'll try to make it to whatever you organise Russell
