...but we all know how excited I get. Just wondering if there would be any interest in doing either the 16th or 17th? Still planning on going the 31st October regardless. (I'm probably going to need two S60Rs at this rate lol)
Would love to but i need to try and get some cash for another re-map.
and I just remembered I'm doing the Naughty Volvo Day on the 17th.

I reckon all we need is a field a mile long then tarmac two lanes :funkybana

[quote=santa20;334510]And some timing equipment..... Should we start a fund raiser?[/quote] not a bad idea........considering our future plans and events and any other silly ideas (as benny would put it) we cook up.
Just need a farmer to sell a field somewhere for 5-10k... then a VPCUK cemet team. Could even make a day of it. Everyone brings a few bags of cemet and a spade and a few weeks bobs your uncle you have the strip. Just need the timing equipment!
Nice, i get my 850r clutch fitted to m V70R on the 14th, just need somewhere to stay until Sunday lol, because if i go back home, i won't be allowed out to play again lol, Gary.
OK then looking at the topic of out of season running more seriously......step 1. Will see how much it costs to lease somewhere like Shakespere out of season.....and will go from there lol. (Even though I like the idea of a private track I'm not sure a load of people buying into it will actually work in the real world. More likely to work better as a commercially style run idea with track raised profits re-invested....whether track raised profits are through gate fees or sponsership etc. Though we usually only have <20 people or so from here on 1/4 mile days so not sure a private track would be sustanable from just vpc use).

Will ask the missus if it is ok (will still have to get used to saying that)
