Merc world brook lands 24th may 2015 sunday

[Ettienne]

Ok a date for brooklands Merc world, may 24th currently there is no events at brooklands on this date.

We have been having two here most years and the second is nearer Xmas.

How does this grab everyone a nice summer meet.

10.30-11am worked well

11.30 tour £2.50 til 12.30am
Lunch then hot laps at 1.30 onward £15
All above by choice

There is a multitude of things to do mostly free, if you haven't been then well worth going.

Maybe a list if those interested

Ettienne plus nicci

[Ettienne]

I'm cool with a Saturday, let's have some input from others as to what they prefer?

How about a meet in Brooklands? Would cost more but when we went with the Cougar club, we got to take our cars on track for photos:

I try and keep things as cheap as possible to allow / encourage more peeps to join in, remembering that some people travel along way in these fuel hungry monsters.

Please feel free to post up some idea on prices and we can always offer it.

[stribo]

I'll contact Brooklands and find out.

[Saaamon]

Will be on a trip that date.

[Ettienne]

Will try and arrange another later in the year and fit around those who can't attend the first one.

However there is no event on at brooklands and it's difficult to find a clear weekend in the summer.

[Ettienne]

Just a bump for those who haven't seen it

[Ettienne]

A bump for newbies as it's a regular thing now and an extremely good venue

[t5steve]

i'll be there

[Ettienne]

Just a bump for people's calendars

[Ettienne]

A quick bump as just over one month away

[Saaamon]

Mite be up for this as not going now until the 28th. Is there an attendance list?

[The Flying Moose]

Mmm, my first day off that week, pencil me in as a provisional!

At least it's the right weekend...:)

[JUDGENINJA]

True.... :finger::finger:

[Harvey]

Hope you all have a good day out, don't forget the photos please.

[JUDGENINJA]

Well today was the usual German, german and more German.... Turnout would rival VT on numbers, but wayhay being in competition isn't my biggest worry.

So Steve(family), Charlie(and friend) and I had a great day...
Number of Volvos = 2

Lol...

It was the 190SL owners meet. This gave the advantage of getting right beside the skid pan, but I didn't have my camera with me.

Total photos = 2

A bit of a warning is that the prices have changed. Hot laps is now £30 for the first passenger and £15 for each additional member.
They had a new F1 simulator £10 for 15mins. Which was nice, but the timing board included the simulators with the 10yr old kids with all the assists turned on. I was only 32 seconds behind Hamiltion for my lap of 02:08..!!!

Like fishing, I did do a clean and much faster lap but the timing had ended so it didn't count..
