The trackday thread.
 

Thought it might be useful to have a single thread for trackday dates.

I'll kick off, anyone doing Snetterton 16th may?.

Re: The trackday thread.
 

Do you ever go anywhere else? I found Rockingham was much better suited to the SV with i'ts shorter straights. You should check it out :)

Re: The trackday thread.
 

Haha I do mate, Snetterton is my favorite track and its not to far away which is why I go a lot, I am going Cadwell on the 21st!.

I have been to Rockingham didn't rate it much, found Brands okish but wont rush back, I like Mallory its just a bit to far away, Silverstone is ok bit on the expensive side. I keep meaning to do Bedford just haven't got around to it yet! do you fancy going some time?

Re: The trackday thread.
 

Have you tried Lydden Hill. Great for SV although no garages (like Cadwell).

Will be looking at dong Snetterton in next month or so hopefully and maybe Donington as long as it is not a weekend!

Re: The trackday thread.
 

Bedford on 31st May will probably be my next TD, get involved

Re: The trackday thread.
 

Cadwell on Monday the 23rd :)

Re: The trackday thread.
 

No I haven't, it looks a very short track.

Snetterton is great its got a nice mixture of fast and slow stuff.

Re: The trackday thread.
 

Could be interested.

Re: The trackday thread.

Re: The trackday thread.

Re: The trackday thread.
 

Thinking I might do Snetterton with NL on 7/6 :p

Re: The trackday thread.

Boo hiss :( no WOWs I take it L3nny?

Re: The trackday thread.
 

Wouldn't have made any difference. Sessions were stopped at 11 and they sent us home at 1. Managed 4 laps in total. 3 of those sighting laps.

Blimey, do you get any refund? Normally they just say it's tough ched if it's the weather

Re: The trackday thread.
 

Apparently Jonathan Palmer's terms state if 1 customer rides 1 full lap then No Limits have to pay the full hire fee. As there was actually 2 open sessions, 1 inter and 1 fast, (albeit in terrible conditions and fewer than 3 bikes went out in each) then they have to pay the full amount.

So no, probably won't get a refund. I imagine NLs margins are pretty tight so they won't be able to absorb the cost.

Re: The trackday thread.
 

Fair play to No Limits, just saw on Facebook that they'll give a full refund.

I wish there were more companies in the motorcycle industry that cared as much as this :)

Re: The trackday thread.
 

That's a good result. I think FE does a tapered refund for missed wet sessions but I think at most you get 75% back.

Re: The trackday thread.
 

Blimey you are lucky!

Re: The trackday thread.
 

That's good of them to offer a refund

Re: The trackday thread.
 

And the PR they get from people like you mentioning what good customer service they've shown you is invaluable.

Re: The trackday thread.
 

I stopped doing track days with FE because of their attitude towards customers. NL on the other hand have always been first class and it's good to see that hasn't changed.

Looks like fun! Better take my camera

Re: The trackday thread.
 

Didn't go on the 6th due to work in the end but I have booked for the 20th June at Snetterton with n/l

Re: The trackday thread.
 

Just booked Snetterton for Monday (13th).

Re: The trackday thread.
 

I thought about this Monday but was worried it might be a wet one but then most of the TDs I do on end up wet! Fingers crossed you get dry sessions :D

Re: The trackday thread.
 

Cheers, got just about every thing crossed for a bit of dry track time had two or three spoilt by rain this year

Re: The trackday thread.
 

Spoilt by rain? Wet track time is about as much fun as it's possible to have with your clothes on!

Re: The trackday thread.
 

I do not enjoy riding in the rain and standing around in wet gear all day gets old fast

Re: The trackday thread.
 

Cadwell on the 21st anyone?

Re: The trackday thread.
 

No, Snetterton on the 20th :p

Re: The trackday thread.
 

Drive straight to Cadwell afterwards!, enjoy its a great track.

Re: The trackday thread.
 

Doing my first ever trackday at Donnington in August. Its with the Ron Haslam race school. Looking forward to it.

Re: The trackday thread.
 

What did you think of the track?.

Re: The trackday thread.
 

It was too wet for the tyres I had and they had sold out of wets! I've done Snetterton a few times before, old layout and this one. It's a great track now and trickier than it used to be.
