Re: Toyota Only Trackday - Blyton park - Saturday 19th July
I have advertised it on some general jap car forums. Lots of people saying 'yeah that sounds like a good idea' and then not booking
IMOC-UK - the only club to win 'Best Club Stand' at JAE more than once, and twice in a row!
Re: Toyota Only Trackday - Blyton park - Saturday 19th July
Yeah I think people tend to book trackdays closer to the time.
've just spent an entertaining quarter of an hour on Google trying to work out how far the details have got - and I'm amazed at how many forums have picked up on it! Good to see that the general consensus is positive as well, so I'm confident that plenty more will join in as we near the day

I've posted details on JPOC and on the Facebook TMOC group. Not sure if anything will come of it though.

Still in the garage...
..the only thing I can promise for sure is slow progress.

just have this niggling thought that if I rip out the wiring, then the car will never get out of the garage again.

Damnit Ben get your xxxx together!
Just kidding - can't wait to hear back, money at the ready. Can't wait to overcook my brakes on the way into Bishops!

As if by magic...
So, er, looks like it's being kept as Toyota only for the time being. Sorry, collective 'vette and 'busa owners - it's Colin's trackday and I can't really argue with his thinking. I have to say I'm pleasantly surprised with the take-up.
Colin will let me know as and when it's opened up to the general public the only thing I can really suggest would be to keep checking back. Sorry I can't be any less vague
Colin from Javelin wrote:Hi Ben,
The thinking behind the Toyota Only concept still holds good to me.
We currently are almost half full with just over 5 weeks to go and that is not bad for an idea like this.
If you have Toyota UK involvement too I think it would be counter productive to dilute the exclusivity at this stage. I am happy to consider opening it up a bit nearer the time if the take up is not improved.
Kind Regards
Colin

Don't worry about it Ben.
Despite the fact it puts me out of the track day - I actually agree with the premise It could be quite a big deal for various Toyota factions to be able to fill a track day themselves.

Ok, this might be a bit short notice but would Toyota be willing to bring an LFA down + driver to do passenger rides?
