We have been trying to organise a day out at this race event for a while and recently had an email back from Sarah at Shelsley offering reduced group tickets and special parking for a collective of MX5s.
This could be in their club area near the carpark, depending on interest and catering can be provided or own thing in a designated area in the car park.
For those who don’t know the venue it is a beautiful location with a full days racing of exotic and very fast machinery with access to all areas including the pits included in the ticket.
There is full catering facilities on site but we normally take chairs and a picnic.
The date suggested is Saturday 2nd of May OR Sunday 3rd of May-This is their Speed into Spring event the first race weekend of the year. Tickets are £15 each but a discount will be offered depending on numbers.
Please can we have interested members details asap.
Simon and Sara
Thanks for this proposed event. Unfortunately I am working that weekend but hopefully other North West Midland members will respond in the positive to your exciting day out.
Indeed it is. As a bonus you can sometimes watch us NHCA motorcycle types pressing on up the hill
May the 2nd is one such opportunity. A championship round , so the fast boys will be there - 100+ over the finish on two wheels.
So far 5 going and l think 10 maybe’s. Saturday is preferred going to email the course tomorrow to check bulk prices and arrangements. Difficult though without confirmation from members-what do you suggest we don’t want to come over too pushy……
Simon,
If your organising you need to know numbers really. Once you have spoken with the course owners then let me know what entrance fees will be depending on number of attendees. I will promote your event this Wednesday and ask any interested members to respond to your forum post ASAP. I will tell the gathering your going for Saturday 2nd May.
Once again many thanks for volunteering to organise an event. If your free on Wednesday night why not come to our meeting and promote the event yourself.
I will travel down on Saturday May 2 for Saturday’s event, Shelsley Walsh a first for me.
Stay over night, drive home Sunday May 3.
Thank you for your information.
