Cadwell Park 30th/31st August 2016

[Red Herring]

Folks, this is a follow on thread to the one started on Bike Talk about organising a .Org track day. It looks like there might be one in May but for those that need a bit more time to get organised I'm going to Cadwell Park on the 30th and 31st August, which is a Tuesday/Wednesday.

No Limits are running both days, plus an evening session on the Tuesday. My plan is to get there Tuesday afternoon, maybe ride in the evening, camp overnight enjoying a bit of a social with anyone else who turns up, and then ride on the Wednesday.

If you fancy joining me then you need to book direct with No Limits, £105 for the day. They run the usual three sessions, I'm in the Intermediates for now and if I behave might get to stay there. When I spoke to them the other day they had plenty of room, but remember this is Cadwell in August so it will fill up fast.

Cadwell Park has good campaign facilities. I'm taking a camper so will have the means to boil a kettle etc and I'll throw in the BBQ, some firewood and extra beer/sausages if requested.

You don't need to have an SV, or even be a member of the Org, it is after all a public track day, but it would be good to catch up with some names on here and swop (if not create) a few tales.....

Hopefully see you there.
RH.

Just to add from something asked on the other thread. Caldwell is owned by MSV. Their rules require you to be over 18 and hold a full licence NOT restricted to 33bhp. You also need a helmet with an ACU sticker or equivalent on it and full or two piece leathers that zip together all the way around. Textiles are not allowed. These rules apply to all MSV circuits, regardless of who is running the trackday.

I have known people to get away with the restricted bit, especially if you don't look 17.... but don't count in it.

RH - I understand they do not have garages. Do you run tyre warmers?

[Red Herring]

Yes I do. There is opportunity to get power there if you're nice and early and have a long extension lead (I have). If I can't get a socket on Tuesday night I've got a generator which I'll use instead. It can run two sets of warmers if that's what you're going to ask.....

[Balky001]

Thanks RH. I might just run the SportSmart 2 in that case but I will have a set of GP212s in case that genie becomes available


I've booked in to inters, 30th and 31st. Hopefully at least 1 day will be dry!!

Just occurred to me that this is immediately after the BSB weekend at Cadwell. I might just have to make a very long weekend of it!

[Balky001]

I'm there on 31st only now. I swapped for a day at Snetterton which was a wash out. Not very clever!I might come up on 30th though!

Ah, how good would this have been BSB then the ignominy of being Mr Slow round Cadwell, i loved the place when I went on the Gixer for the bank holiday meeting a few years ago
..

Money just doesn't stretch that far grrr.

Have a brilliant time guys

[Balky001]

RH, did you sort out your plans for this, you going to the BSB?

I'm planning on turning up on 30th late afternoon/evening but would be good to say hi on 30th if you are going to be there.

If I don't get power in the morning, is the offer of a share of the genny still on?

See you there!, booked both days inters on the 30th and fast on the 31st.
