Donkey Punch Tour 08 - Walshy Accom

[Peter]

Hi Andy, I thought Greg R made up the 4th place? That's why I bypassed the friday activities.

Cheers, Peter

Unfortunately not - he's having to pass due to imminent Elise sale

Uncle Ron has replaced him for the rest of the outing, but can't do the Friday at Walshy

Any ideas on the cost for the Walshy day?

[alicrozier]

I'd like to have some 'Walshy time' but a full day may be too much from a tyre preservation perspective.

Happily defer though if there are too many takers - how many can Walshy handle on a 'full training' basis? Any chance of an 'activity day' type event for those not wanting/getting the full training?

Yeah mate - if you just want to add your name for now.

We're trying to work it out currently

Where did you and Nicola get to on Friday night?

[Peter]

Andy, just for ref, I have registered with LOT (Peter B) and sent a note to admin to transfer the "Peter Bennett" entries to my account so I can manage and update on line.

Wee bit concerned I'm not on the Oulton list for some reason, also Cheque sent some time ago but don't think they have cashed it? Will take it up with LOT directly.

Thanks again for you hard work in organising another event.

Cheers, Peter

Sorry I wasn't down on Friday night Andy. First time I'd got Nicola to a trackday since my first ever day back in 2003! She had a great time, although a bit 'Ricardo Patrese's wife' at times..*. She particularly enjoyed the flaming 350Z.

* Really only 3 times, once when she thought Mass was going to spin right in front of us at the hairpin, tut's squeeze move at Clark's (I need to remember that blindspot mirror for him next time ) and one over ambitious late braking at Clarks by me which resulted in a lift off, throw it in, curious line, fairly big opposite lock exit.

Anyway she was keen to head home so we went North rather than South. We did manage the Glenshee road with Kev...quite quiet for traffic after Perth but needed to watch out for deer.

OK, sorted with LOT for the tracks (almost), UK accomodation is booked, crossing is booked so just left with the French hotels, any news on these?

Not yet - Paul Golding is sorting this for us.

I'm a bit lost with hotels and Channel crossings. So it seems that Paul G is sorting out hotels in France, and Andy G is sorting hotels in the UK and we've to arrange our own crossings?

How is everyone getting across on Friday and what time? Ashley isn't keen on the Chunnel as apparently it's due to fall in anytime soon so we'll be getting the Ferry I think unless I can talk her round.

It's the first time Ashley will ever have been on track and she's a terrible passenger so should be fun
