For those unfamiliar with Snetterton, here's some in-car 2015 footage of what it looks like to drive in an RX-8



Dinner Monday Evening

If there is enough interest we can stay for Dinner locally, after the trackday. This is the place we normally frequent:

https://www.angel-larling.co.uk/

Which is a family run pub situated at Larling, less than 4 miles away, just off the next southbound junction on the A11 after we leave Snetterton. We have eaten at this place a few times in the past and they have always looked after us very well.

I was just about to book this but noticed Malcolm’s comment about the renewal of the Javelin discount. I’ll hold fire for a bit and see what happens with that.

[casey]

Great to hear you plan to join us Nick

No reply yet from Javelin.

[casey]

Javelin have kindly renewed their 5% discount code for Club Members (and you get 5% credit against any future bookings too).

The code is here: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=59092&p=1434424

[Nickp47]

I have now booked using the updated discount code

[CNWilson]

CNWilson - Clint Wilson (Silver 04 Rx8) - PAID

Looking forward to it.

[CNWilson]

Hi Clint, great, see you there

[casey]

This event is just a month away now.

Anyone else want to join us for a fun day out at this excellent circuit?

[Foremanator]

Foremanator - Tom Foreman (Black 04 RX8) Paid + Garage, would be good to get the garages next to each other if possible?

Also got finally around to uploading my footage from Snetterton last year:

[Foremanator]

Welcome back Tom

Nice little video compilation there from last year

I'll contact Javelin about 10 days before the date to request adjacent garages - I assume place booked in your name?

[casey]

Still places remaining to book a place on this trackday

[MadTaz]

Won't be participating this year but I'll pop up and hello to everyone there. Always nice to see Rx8's on track and its not too far away from me.

[SeanP]

How hilarious is this.... At the Oxon meet tonight and discussions came around to track days.... To which I said I wished I'd booked this one - are there any spaces left?

But you're already booked! Checks diary and emails from Javelin! Damn - so I am...

[SeanP]

Happy to be of service Sean.

I just arrived home to a hall full of parcels, including a new Koyo rad, and with any luck my car will have an 11th hour heart transplant and be ready in time.

Thanks Malcolm! Thats right, place and garage are booked in my name.

[SeanP]

I've only booked the track - but wish to ensure a garage (and of course will share with anybody else)...
Is there a way of booking the garage alone?

[SeanP]

I'm happy to share my garage with you Sean.

We have 6 cars and 2 garages booked, so I'll arrange for those garages to be a pair.

Is there a way of booking the garage alone?

I've just checked and the garages are shown as being sold out!

[casey]

Can I (re-)confirm that no-one else has booked a garage, other than Tom and myself?

[Nickp47]

Weather forecast looking decent, now we’re less than a fortnight away I’m really looking forward to this.
I need to crack on and do a few bits on my MX-5 to get it ready.

[casey]

This event is now showing as sold out on Javelin website.

Weather now showing as showery in afternoon - but plenty of time for the forecast to improve

[casey]

Hmmm, weather forecast doesn't seem to be improving

[Foremanator]

A request to group my garage and Tom's as a pair has been submitted

[CNWilson]

Taking bets on the weather - it's forecast to be dry now, 0% chance of rain

Anyone interested in staying for some food afterwards at the local pub? If there are 3 or more of us interested then I'll book a table for us at ~5.30pm.

Menu: https://www.angel-larling.co.uk/dining/our-menu/

Please post up if interested.

[MightyCondor]

We can also take bets on my car being ready or not. Also trying to fix issues on the PZ this week, so could end up in either of the 8s or missing out entirely.
