MR2 Trackday in 2015?

Post by Marmalade »

I was wondering if we try and organise a get together for a few MR2's next year.

Pick a trackday, maybe Bedford or somewhere else fairly central so that it is easy enough for people to get to and try and get as many MR2's on the day as we can?

Depending on people's budget's we could even try and go to Silverstone perhaps?

Anyway, just throwing the idea out there to see who might be interested?

I asked God for a bike, but I know God doesn't work that way. So I stole a bike and asked for forgiveness.

We did this for Blyton this year, was an excellent day. I'd recommend talking to Colin Jebson at Javelin, he ran the day for us at a very reasonable price, although we did have to open up to all Toyotas to get enough people!

I'll PM you his details :)

If you can hold that thought, I'm currently looking into organising an MR2 only trackday for March next year at Donington Park. You'd be sharing the circuit with MR2 Championship drivers pre-season testing.

Potentially in, dependent on date and location (and car being sorted!)

On the off chance you open this up to non (or ex) MR2 owners, I'd love to take the Westfield around Donnington. Assuming I have it back on the road (and have sorted a trailer!) by then :)

Oooooh, I could enjoy overtaking real racing drivers on the straights only to have a queue of them piled up behind me after every corner :thumleft:

I'm in. Castle Combe is pretty central (or local to me and people in the South at least....)

Blyton was good, but a trek to say the least, and I only came from the Worcester!

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

Still in the garage...
