|
|
Looking to book the indy (or GP depending on price...) as a private thing so only people authorised can use the track.
Obviously the only bikers I know are on here, so does this appeal to anyone. No real cost other than fuel and donations should you wish.
Waiting on a call back for the price, sure I've requested details before and its come through at a relatively decent price... just forgotten what it was
Given that its Brands, full licence holders... they don't allow 33/46hp riders and I'd need about 12-16 people I reckon.
Is anyone up for this? Should add, ideally this would be new track people rather than the seasoned ones unless groups can be split properly and evenly to allow us slow folk a fair run against each other...
Bikes would require to be in safe and decent condition, with anything glass taped up.
No belly pan required
2 piece zip together leather or 1 piece leathers

Well you can use fully naked bikes so assuming the lack of belly pan is no issue
I'll wait to get a price from this guy |

I'd be up for this, but realistically I don't think it's affordable.
I remember Silver making enquires about this beforeand was quoted some outrageous figures
https://www.bikechatforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=83976
It may be better approaching one of the track day companies & seeing if they'll do a special rate for a group booking (although it may complicate things when you get riders of different ability levels etc in a group) |

I'm alright with one of the guys there, the organiser
Last time I enquired, it wasn't too bad as long as it was a group of 8+. I can probably arrange for it to be less "exclusive" or do a group booking for a specific track date that no one knows about yet |

Ah, nice going .
Well, if I happen to be down that way in the lorry, can offer a little cramped accommodation for a few people .
Possibly interested, but doubt logistics would work out for me having track bikes down there at the time.
On that, if I could make it workout, may be able to work out a deal on the use of a track bike if anyone wanted. |

Would be quite a trek to drive down, do a track day, then drive back. Plus Id have to get some leathers from somewhere, cheap ebay jobby should do it. I shall peruse the thread regularly as I umm and arr about it. Never done a track day, wouldn't mind trying it out on my bike to work on my cornering without risk of rolling under a lorry.
