BLYTON TEST SESSION.

[lewis1641]

Hi just tried to book a day on track at Blyton (its not officially a track day - they call it a test session so no marshalls or first aid etc but friendly and relaxed. its an airfield so you can see if there is any danger up ahead anyway!)

they are not open on that day though but they will open upif i can get 3 or more cars there. does anyone fancy coming?

its 45 plus vat for the day 10 - 4.  they are based in lincolnshire between sthingyhorpe and gainsborough. theres a couple of pubs in the village who both do cheap lunches (2 for £7 if i recall) and a world famous ice cream parlour! what more could you want!

need to know if anyone is up for it ASAP

any questions?

Good price should be good fun if you can get enough. Can't make it unfortunately, I've got an airfield day booked for this saturday.

Have a good day.

Cheers

H'mmmmm, my other half with her bump and the 16month old daughter might though!

As I'm not sure whether the Golf will be road legal it would possibly mean hiring a trailer, so costs start spiralling.  I'll wait and do a session at Combe on April 19th.

Hello.

Thanks for the text - sorry I can't make this one (off on the following saturday anyways)

Let me know when you are doing it again.

(p.s. any news on getting some slicks yet?)

Hi, Blyton is only a small roughly laid out circuit using cones and tyres, which often get scattered about. We use it occasionally for testing our cars. Its a little on the rough side with it being on concrete so its hard wearing on tyres if your into chucking it round corners. Just thought it worth mentioning.

[lewis1641]

cheers. been there a few times myself. on the plis side though its quiet relaxed and friendly. i have never had a problem with cones. we use semi slick track tyres which are pretty soft. we have done 2 full days on these and have loads of life left on them. its no where near as good as a "real circuit" granted, but then again cadwell is 169 per car and one driver and 30 quid for an extra driver!

Will hopefully pop along tomorrow sometime to have a quick watch/ride?
