VPCUK - Trax 2nd September 2012

Post 447997 by The Flying Moose on 2012-01-11 00:25:06

Well it may be early but no time like the present for rallying the interest! Last year Trax was a real success and I plan on organising the same event again. This year it will be held on the 2nd of September and once again at the Silverstone international circuit. The club prices are as below: -£15 Per person Entry fee -£10 Per person Camping -£30 Dedicated Club Track Time (Maximum 30 cars) -£7 Sprint Tests I will be organising this once again this year and will be collecting funds at a date yet to be announced, I will more than likely begin this process in May. The official Deadline for club entries is the 20th of July. Our deadline will be in June to ensure we get our space. For details of the event please visit the below site: http://www.traxshows.co.uk/ Last years event: Oh and this year the Moose will be tracking his car too... and wont be attending in a Vectra!!! Thats all for now folks, get saving up and keep your eyes peeled for further updates.

Never been to Trax, though it has tempted me many times in the Escort, but I'm not much of a speed man, I'm more of a sound man, I'll have to do some thinking and asking... Very much doubt the Escort is show attending this year :(, so Trax for the volvo is a possibility for a make up.

Guys, we WILL be doing the Dedicated Track Club time thingy. (Subject to availability, we will register for it early next week). We will fix the cost as the same as the normal track time per person. (We may also invite some people to help bump up the numbers but this wont be many). If you have any non forum members who might be interested....get them to sign up and post here. (Though lets try to keep the numbers semi light......I don't want to make to much of a loss on it but I don't want to share the track with to many idiots either).

I don't want to sound like a party breaker, but to get exclusive track time we'd need 30+ cars.

Aaaahhh get it now, obviously didnt make myself clearer. We your lovely management team have decided we will be going for the club track time. We're forking out the money, its our job to minimise the loss. (And to get the site to not only pay for itself but also to leave a bit extra for these little treats). Want to help? Get as many volvos on the track as you can (up to 30) paying £30 each.
