***TRACKDAY, Snetterton 300 (Norfolk) - Wednesday, 8 July***

Post by casey »

I'm interested in booking this trackday with MSV Trackdays:

https://car.msvtrackdays.com/calendar/c ... n/2026/7/8

Current Early Bird Price is £188, but if we get 5 or more in a group then we can get a 10% discount and a free garage or two!
GROUP DISCOUNTS (UK circuits)

Group discounts start for groups of five main drivers or more. The bigger your group gets, the more additional options can be added at request. Typically discounts are in line with the following:

5 main drivers or more - A *garage free of charge as a base for you and your club/group. 10% discount for all customers

10 main drivers or more - A double *garage free of charge as a base for you and your club/group. 10% discount for all customers grid photo shoot on the track at lunchtime**

15 main drivers or more - A double *garage free of charge as a base for you and your club/group. 10% discount for all customers grid photo shoot on the track at lunchtime**. A classroom theory session in your garage hosted by our instructors for your club/group**.
If you are seriously interested, please post up in here. If we get to 5, I will contact MSV to arrange the discount. DO NOT BOOK/PAY yet, as the booking has to be done as a group and paid together. I've done this before and, one advantage is that payment isn't usually requested until a couple of weeks or so before the event.

But be quick if you can ,before the Early Bird price rises :D

Enquiry sent today to MSV about the group discount scheme :D

I have also put details on the "Lovers of Trackdays" FB Messenger Group (many of us regular trackdayers are already on there ;) ). The bigger the group, the more perks we get :thumleft:

I now have a response from Sam at MSVT.

I will need to pay MSVT for us all in one lump sum at some point. I'll have to ask you all to transfer your payments to my paypal or bank account in advance - no rush yet though, I'll let you know when it's needed, and the discounted price to transfer.

IMPORTANT: If you want to add any extra drivers and/or passengers, and want those places to be discounted, can you let me know ASAP. I just need the number to add to the order.

You can, of course, add extra drivers and/or passengers later, but they won't be eligible for the discount, unless paid in the block booking.

Thank you everyone for your very prompt payments =D>

I will phone MSVT tomorrow and settle the bill for our group. I have added an extra garage (my treat) to give us a bit more space :D

I'm looking forward to my first outing to Snetterton this year, especially now we have a good group of us going along.

If anyone else would like to join us, please post up. I can't guarantee to get the 10% discount, but if we get to 10 (or more) overall, I don't think there would be a problem.

We are at Croft on the 6th but were at Snetterton the other day with a new fastest lap of 2:18.1 which I think makes it the fastest time of any normal road going Rx8.

See here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3OpMX8r8zO4&t=145s

We will try and make this though :D

Am I allowed in the 718?

I'm working in Milton Keynes the day before so have booked myself a Travelodge on the way in Huntingdon.
