    V Max IV at Bruntingthorpe looking likely to be Sunday March 21st. Can I have a show of hands to ascertain interest levels please chaps?

    Thank you.

    I already have a fair few Porsches, TVRS and other assorted exotica coming along so would be good to have some back up from the F Car contingency!

    you have a 355...why on earth would you want to come and watch.?

    Believe me, I've had plenty of people saying that before. When they got there they were tearing their hair out that they couldnt drive.

    Hi Tony, I did get message thanks, I replied, you obviously didnt get it, weird.

    Weatherwise, afraid no refunds as I still have to pay for the hire of the place. That said having done days there in icy conditions, pouring with rain and with bright sunshine it makes virtually no difference to the top speeds, you need to take it slightly easier on the bends but that said we're not racing around the rest of the track (unless you want to ;) )

    Gents, getting pretty full now, can I just ask any of you who wish to come to email me (rather than pm me) through my profile so I can amalgamate my list. Thanks.

    ps. In answer to the questions above, yes no problem with spectators, there will probably be a nominal fee as lots of passenger rides are always given.

    General cost is about £150 per car (depends on numbers), this is for the whole day and will allow pretty much as many runs as you wish and also the hire of the timing & speed recording equipment.
