Depending on weather there is an open pitlane happening on this day - £99 for pre-booked cars and £120 on the day.

I'll be going with a few mates hopefully, if I can swerve some time off at the factory over that week (I'm the only one with no holiday left :roll: )

any interest??

Nah, if it was stupidly cheap, like £70 or so i'd be tempted

obviously if we all paid full whack last time, £175, £99 would appear cheap Tom, but I think its a reasonbable price. £120 for turning up on the day is that bit more I agree :)

The problem is the weather - Dony will not refund any trackday tickets if snow or rain causes trouble. And before when it was slightly slippery there was that roll :shock:

But on the plus side:

From the bbc long range forecasts;

"Monday 19th December to Sunday 1st January

It looks like 2005 will end with a strong westerly or southwesterly flow influencing the weather - making for an unsettled but fairly mild story.

Rainfall amounts look to be at least average for all parts of the UK, as do sunshine totals and temperatures. Overnight temperatures may well stay above average though, thanks to the strength of the flow, so overnight frosts may be few and far between.

Overall, most of us can expect around average rainfall but even with temperatures up on the previous week they may still be below average." (cheers Woots :wink: )

So it might be worth a gamble - nice cold weather for intake temps and not too slippery if the forecasts are accurate.

Anyway the option is there :)

Yeah and sorry its def thurs 29 Dec :)
