Ok.. ya talked me into it too Anna ;)

Activities
Count me and Si in for the activities on Saturday (prob be 1 activity, maybe more but money is the key factor). Personally id like to do off roading, sounds like a bit of a laugh :D

Accom
Also - can we reserve a spot in the B&B for Sat night for us both please.

Rockingham
As you know, we've already paid up in full for Rockingham via bookatrack so we're both in for the full day there.

Its gonna be awesome :D

On the b&b front - there is one single, and one double - i'll phone and ask if it's still £25 for the double single occupancy and get back to you

I reckon an hour of 4x4ing would be ace, but really want to go quad biking too :twisted:

I'll post a list of all the possible activities later :)

/cry... and it seems sooo far away.
Good to see a lot of us on the list at bookatrack :D http://bookatrack.com/-pA?729 Think its worth me adding one of those BBQ grills to the back of the car. Like Hammond did in the USA Top Gear episode? :D

Must be some mystic forces at work.

Quoted from BaTs site.

http://bookatrack.com/-pb?43

What is the charge for 2nd drivers?
We do not charge for 2nd drivers on the basis that you can use your track time however you like. However, we do insist that you're second driver arives with you as it is compulsary for them to attend a safety briefing. 2nd drivers NOT attending the main briefing will be charged at £50 each. Please note that on Open Pit Lane events there is a maximum of 2 drivers per car.

Saw a couple of your S2k club mates at Donny the week before last and had a good chin wag with them about your brakes :mrgreen:

Also accepted a kind offer from Peter with a heavily modified (for track use) S2000 to go out as a passenger. Was very impressed 8)
