Silverstone 'Arena GP' BMW Trackday - Sept 24th

[Nick Wright]

Silverstone BMW Trackday,
Monday 24th September 2012

Full 'Arena' GP Circuit
Open Pitlane
Full use of the entire Silverstone 'Wing' garages
Free ARDS instruction (three of my guys are ARDS grade S 'super-instructors')
Dedicated novice schooling and tutorials
Friendly club atmosphere
Non member guests welcome
Non BMW's welcome
Trophies and prizes

Forum price: £275 that's the cheapest day there this year by a country mile.. BookEasyGold and all them charge around £400.

I keep the entry numbers low so we all get plenty of time on circuit.

Over 30 years at Silverstone - we have been coming here each Autumn since the 70's!
The daddy of all Club trackdays - This for us is where it all began, out on the grand prix circuit and we are still enjoying it.
We don't share with anyone, we bite the bullet and book the whole place as an exclusive hire, we always have - not a bad achievement for a small one marque members club!
If you only do one trackday this year, do this one - nobody runs a Silverstone trackday like we do!

Regards
Nick

[Nick Wright]

This event is starting to pick up a good few bookings now.
I will be promoting this day like mad when we are at the Silverstone Classic later this month.. so don't go letting me sell your place to someone else.. if you want to come I need to know.
Both trackdays prior to this one have sold out well ahead of the event and left late bookers disappointed

If you know you want to come - call me now!

[Bounce]

I'm booked on this now:smokin:And staying at the Silverstone premier inn on the Sunday night,if anyone's up for a few beers in the Green man:beer:

I'm giving that one a swerve this year and opted for the Travelodge that I booked for £12 last year!
We'll be having our meal and drinks at The Navigation at Stoke Bruerne - it's got a lot more going for it.. with the one exception.. it's only a short drive away, but too far to stagger back! - cracking pub though, the best in the locality

Have you seen who we have got to warm up the circuit?

http://www.britcar24hr.co.uk/cms/24hr.php

The Britcar 24 Hr racing will 'rubber in' the circuit nicely for us!

Do you fancy seeing the 500hp M3 GTR's close up and get to see the action from the pit lane?

I'm going to try and get us all a parking area right in the paddock - and there is a club deal on the price - use this link to make your booking and don't forget to say you are with the BMW Car Club

http://www.britcar24hr.co.uk/cms/news.php?item.1272

I can't think of a better start to a BMW trackday than this

Hope to see some of you there

Nick

[Nick Wright]

Our resident snapper has just confirmed he will be coming to do the pictures again.
They will be hosted on Flickr again so that you can get them all free of charge.

Here is the link to last years pictures

Bob Harper, editor of BMW Car magazine, will also be there to do a feature on the day

We may also get some TV, BMW's in house production team said they will do some coverage for one of their promotional videos.

.. so if you don't want to be spotted on camera or TV, get some gaffer tape for your number plate!

How many last year? + how many booked so far?

[Nick Wright]

How many last year? + how many booked so far?

Can't say for sure as I didn't highlight the different E46 M3 variants on my entry list.
We had 24 assorted '46 M3's - More than half of them were CSL's

So far this year I have 8 CSL's booked and paid

thats where all the profit is Nick, all costs covered now just cash to hide ;)

[Nick Wright]

What profit is that then?
I'm still £4,516.88 short of breaking even.

[shimmy]

What profit is that then?
I'm still £4,516.88 short of breaking even.

tough business mate

20x 275 = £5500 so £983.12 profit minus tax if you sell out :)

[Nick Wright]

20 was yesterday, I have done 4 more - I need 16 at £275 to break even

Now if everyone had paid the full £325 it would be a different story

The 'profit' comes from the raffle, donations, DTM passenger rides and stuff like that on the day

Do CCI do single day insurance ?
Yes CCi cover for single days, are you not insured with them for normal road use :thumbs:

[83SY]

Single day cost me £300 - annual cover including 5 days cost £465!
Wish id asked about the annual cover before paying out for the 1day :banghead:

[83SY]

Weather isnt looking great guys! Ok til lunch then lots of rain :

Just checked again and my mistake looks ok all day!

[Nick Wright]

Single day cost me £300 - annual cover including 5 days cost £465!
Wish id asked about the annual cover before paying out for the 1day :banghead:

I know its ain't no CSL but the 328 is £195 on the Club policy - it gives me 5000 miles road use which is more than I need, recovery and cover for all club events and trackdays. (club trackdays are taken as read, others are if you give them notice of who is running it)
The scheme is run by Classicline and you need to be talking to Darren

[northernjim]

800 mile round trip for 5 laps, 2 of which were sighting laps!
Not a happy camper but good to meet the lads.

@ Pradip - 2 sighting laps and that was it , no laps for me at all :bigcry:

[CraigMillwardCroft]

Including the sighting laps I managed 8 :banghead: some class driving out there today :whistle:Bit like a session day

[e46m3c]

3 sighters and one flier for me. Well i say flier, was same pace as sighters behind about 50 cars, and still one managed to go off infront of me.

Got a vid of a little drift and thats it lol.

Ahh well bring on next time.

[shimmy]

im guessing the rain along with 24hours of rubber being laid diwn only 18 hours earlier did not mix ;)

[83SY]

IMO the conditions weren't that bad! it was raining but not much standing water. The problem was the 50 cars driving round at sighting lap pace like its the first time they have ever seen some rain :(

Then you had the roll cage heros! one came out of the pits and within the first three corners ran out of talent :notworthy:

Good to see all the CSL lads & meet Sam with the White E46 (nice bit of kit)
but honestly the day was abit of a shocker.... maybe the 45minute drivers briefing sent everyone into 'Learner driver mode' :bigcry:

I can't make another track day this year so im hoping after getting up at 4am and throwing £100 down the pan on fuel + wasted day off I will see my money back for the TD :whistle:

+ I covered 21miles in total - not sure how long the track is but two lap were sighting and the others were as good as

You would say that having done rallying before:whistle:

Duncan - good to meet you again and sorry to see that you never got to go out in your cups.....:119: The next time you plan a trip to Hooters Cardiff - let me know:smokin:

Did SpeCiaLkeV turn up?
Didn`t see him but If he did , he was laying really low.....:hahaha:

[Bounce]

Got in about 5.30pm,any chance of heavy rain next time and I'm staying at home.Good of Silverstone to give us another day though.

The event should not have been cancelled, it was raining! Not that hard and not much if any standing water. The main problem was the driving standards & after talking to Nick lots of people did not have wet tyres! If you haven't got the wets in the wet why even turn up on what we all knew a week in advance was gunna be wet!

The optional £10 garage fee that was demanded at signing on got me? Advertised as free garages! And even when the shut was hitting the fan and Nick had to call every for a 'chat' the last thing he mentions? Raffle tickets guys :bigcry:

I'm sure the event will hit the record books for worlds longest drivers briefing but on the whole we both felt it was a really poorly run event

[83SY]

Hi sy I will buy it if yanto doesn't want it

Thank you guys but I don't want to sell it cheap I've spoken to Nick and trying to arrange a full refund including £10 garage fee :whistle:

[83SY]

:birdman: :gayfight:

Was it obvious ?

I didn't think it was too obvious....

[Graham]

I was a bit miffed by the £10 garage fee last year too. And didn't think they could make the drivers briefing longer than last year, sounds like they somehow managed it

[Nick Wright]

Apologies for the briefing, it was a bit long.
They don't let me do it myself anymore it has to be an ARDS guy to meet the safety requirements - I'll work on sharpening it up

[billyboysm3]

Bounce/Craig - What was the weather like compared to our last CSLR at Silly earlier in the year?

Definetly something that needs addressed, I think last year was just over half an hour, and the problem is it's information that is supposed to be important, and I fall asleep after 20 minutes

You last 19mins longer than I do.

They would be better recording an industry standard video,like you get at karting tracks. Would save lots of time.

The best drivers briefing is Spa. Gerard Depardieu basically says

"amusez-vous, dépasser n'importe quel côté, vous connaissez touts les drapeaux, oui? bon, amusez-vous."

:supz:

Bounce/Craig - What was the weather like compared to our last CSLR at Silly earlier in the year?

Billyit was wetter,with more standing water.

[Funkster]

Sorry to hear about all the moistness guys........ Billy and I seem to be getting the sun gods latley with cracking cup weather ;)

Maybe my Mojo rubbed off on someone at the last Silly wet meet :gayfight:

Sun all day last Friday till 4.45pm!

[83SY]

It shouldn't have been cancelled IMO. I'm still very pissed off I travelled all that way to be bored to death at drivers briefing, ripped off at signing on and sent home for abit of drizzle and shite driving standards.

Waste of my last TD of the year, for me BMW car club track days are for the gentleman drivers who like to drive round and enjoy the views and polish their BMW badge in the pits rather than get on with it!

Goldtrack only for me in 2013 I'm not taking any chances :banghead:

[s.mac]

Silverstone in the wet is fun!! Unlike Anglesey today ;( I couldn't see a fOoKIng thing out of the windscreen:(
