campus turbo - liverpool - any will do (15th> july is an rtoc weekender event so cant do then)

Rolling road - Â£25ish, not much participation but good for a chat

track/sprint - Â£60+, more costly but probably the most fun. accidents can happen tho ( a 5 bumping into a volvo would probably cause mayhem

)

1/4 mile action - Â£25ish, good for head to head, outright power but some planning would make the day more fun by having groups off 'equal' cars

track day!

seems to be having a northern lean towards it so how about Knockhill?

If theres going to be any R5/480 incidents then i know which car i want to be in!

there should be room for a couple of peeps to stay at mine if anyone is travelling up from down south, 480 drivers only i'm afraid..........

A track day would be sweeet!
I can say so long to the pretty new tread pattern on my front tyres and the last few scrapes of clutch-lining

Robin Ball, Brixham, Devon - 480 Turbo

Either 1/4 mile or sprint day would be totally wicked, should have my bigger turbo and exhaust sorted by June/july time.

is that it? no wonder its hard to organise an event.

come on chaps, feedback is needed for people to bother orgainsing events. if your not interested then you could at least do the poll so dave knows not to bother.

A track day would be cool, but also a day at the rollers would be as well!

martin, there's plenty of RWYB days at pod, in fact there's a sat nite special this weekend (i know your not here tho

) i'm sure there will be a few people who would be interested.

anyways i'd go to most events, if i'm free, just gimmie a time and place

I would be up for some of that when I return / re-do engine/gearbox.

haz@nocturnal_development · Post by **haz@nocturnal_development** » Sun Jun 11, 2006 1:17 am

i know there's some chat of a pod event being held but is there any updates on a track/rollers event?
