Hou Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Right guys, just seeing if I can drum up some interest on here, ideally want to keep it to toyota based forums if I do not get the numbers, it is already up on TOCI have been looking into running a track day next year, something a bit more relaxed but still fun and came across this:Hi Mark, Thanks for your interest & subsequent enquiry to which I hope we can be of assistance. Firstly there would be no problem whatsoever catering for a club trackday, which we can tailor to your requirements. We would normally work on a maximum of 30 cars, 35 at a squeeze, running 15 to 17 cars on track at any one time. For a club social day out, I would recommend the standard day format, of briefing, sighting laps, open pit lane through until lunchtime, one hour lunch, back on track for part of the afternoon, and then finishing off with a 10 minute qualifying session in a twin engined kart, and a 15 minute race. Included in the day would be bacon or sausage rolls with tea or coffee for breakfast, and a buffet lunch with chips etc at a total cost of £99. We can run up to 105Db, and the day would be run in a relaxed manner.Let me know what your feelings are, and bear in mind we can run the day to your specific requirement should the standard format be of no interest.There are a few options as to the layout of the track to get the right mix of corners and striaghts so that it evens out the playing field a little. It is at Teesside Autodrome (where they have some of the sprint series and used to have drifting) I am thinking about doing it Mid May (working around my rugby season) and so the weather might be ok.So to summarise, a track day, with food inc and a high Db limit, PLUS karting all for 99 of your finest english (or scottish welsh or irish) pounds!And then after a trip to a local take away for a Parmo!!

Steve GT Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 good idea mate its good to see popele bringing different events and ideas to the clubim deffo interested mate so count me in Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hou Posted August 26, 2009 Author Share Posted August 26, 2009 Good good, glad to see there someone interested, nothingis in stone yet and I will make it so that all payments are made direct to the company running it so people have a bit more security Will start opening it up to more forums if numbers struggle, i.e tgtt, mr2 clubs etc Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jason_l Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Dam thats a good price! very interested, will all depend on time of year and if i have the buggy built! You looking at some time in Summer??? if so then i will more than likely be able to make it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steve GT Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 haha fuck going on a track when project deathwish is out there lmaothat things going to be doing ten second laps lmao Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hou Posted August 26, 2009 Author Share Posted August 26, 2009 If you go on youtube and type in Teesside autodrome there are a few good karting and car vidsI have been to this track a few times to watch drifting (I miss it so much ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jason_l Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 haha fuck going on a track when project deathwish is out there lmaothat things going to be doing ten second laps lmaoLOL Won't be anywhere near full power by then, will be relatively standard engine. Although to be honest that will still be stupidly rapid. Will be keeping to a slow pace if i do come along as i want to test the car and get everything fine tuned.Although i do want to see if i can snap the driveshafts or should i say 'TEST' them Plus i can do passenger rides All depends on timing though, if its over summer then it might be feasable!!!!Jason Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hou Posted August 26, 2009 Author Share Posted August 26, 2009 Well I have a say in the track so I will make it full of corners so you cannot use your power MUHAHAHAHAHAAAAAIn all honesty though I think I might see if we can have a morning with a long back straight to get the powerful cars going for it, then in the afternoon stick in a couple of extra corners to keep it fresh and give the slower but better handling cars a chance Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Enzo Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 same here we should pencil it in for the start of may before the season kicks off, say the tenth. im sure loads of people would be into it due to its central like location and time of year,looks like a well suited track to the v and look heavy on the breaks.count me in im there.
