Bubble & Kick Racing - Donington Track Day 13th March 2011

Real shame that Steve. you would at least be someone who enjoyed driving French clutter. Come on guys this is a great opp to drive (with instruction) a great little car at a great track. And you will even get some photo's of the day as i'm taking the camera!!

Have we got signing on times for this yet?

Not seen anything yet. I suspect we will hear something a day or two before the event.

I could do with a start time for this......such a busy social life

Should thing sign on will be around 7:30 briefing around 8:30 and track time around 9:30 that's how most go.

Oh dear! no lye in then!

if i was going - would be so excited that i would not sleep all night anyhow

Hi guys, sorry to not update this for a while!

I will post up the full itinerary on Tuesday at the latest. If I can ask before hand for you to send me your Full names and addresses.

Thanks

Ahem!

Hi guys! Sorry I didn't put up an itinerary yesterday. However below is as the day will progress.

Signing On - Starts 7.30 am
Briefing - 8.30 am
Track Time - 9.00 am
Lunch - Can start at anytime between 1 and 2 depending on circuit
Finish - 5.00 pm this can sometimes run over depending on how the track is run that day.

It would be good to get you all there for 7.30 so that we can get you all signed on and then give you our own briefing on the car before getting the briefing about the Circuit.

If you have any questions please either send a message through here or call me on 07703048451

Do we need to bring anything?

Helmet
Clothing to keep arms, legs etc covered
Drivers License (Both Parts!)
Money to buy us all drinks
Anything else?

Camera, but you just know Rob will have his there to take pics he can sell you

My guess at the times was pretty dam close.

See you all nice and early then.. feed up with these early starts. 6:30 tomorrow and Friday and now the same on sunday!!!

all i can say is i hope you all enjoy it - maybe next time i will come along

Early start for me, I will need to be out of bed by 7.15 then.

Living round the corner from Donington may have its upside sonny me jim lad!
But the down side is you have to live in Nottingham for the other 364 (365 in a leap year) Days.

SHOTINGHAM!

The honour has been passed to Manchester now. And anyway, I live in Derbyshire so ner!

Tux is exactly right with this. However we will have a selection of helmets for you all to wear.

How to see you all bright and early!

Think (but not sure) we all have our own skid lids..

Have a great days guys, expect lots of pics to be uploaded later today

We all survived inc the car which was given a right hammering!

I'm sure pics will follow from people

Thanks to all those involved for a great day

Thanks to the guys at Bubble and Kick, Great day out boys Thank You. i have 700 photo's to sort and edit. some will be along very shortly.

Agreed! A great day with a great team. Nico has nerves of steel and Andrew is a hero with the spanners.
A wet start, which was a bit disconcerting, but things had dried out nicely bay late morning and the rest of the day was cold, but dry. Perfect conditions.
The Megane is a really comfortable car to drive and I felt at home right away. Nico is a great instructor and I have taken a huge amount away from the day. Probably the best money I have spent on track time to date.
The downside is that Mrs. tux is now a fully addicted and converted track day junkie, so we will have to share a car at future events! The change in her confidence levels throughout the day was nothing short of amazing, again thanks in no small part to the talents of Mr. Ferrari.
I got some good tips and I am keen to try them out again now.

Thanks B&K for a top day. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] Hope the drive back South went well.
