French Frolic - the return - place holder
3rd-9th August 2013
After a years break in 2012 the French Frolic returns for edition 11!
The event will go live in August/September but circuits are booked and dates confirmed already.
Claudes been flat out and we can confirm a return to Dijon and our first visit to the much sought after Anneau du Rhin as well as a major circuit to make up the 3 on the trip.
Suitable for Advanced drivers only - 20+ trackdays including a major race circuit such as Le Mans, Silverstone, Brands Hatch, Spa etc. - The reason for this is to get a group of drivers together that is compatable on circuit as with the previous 10 Frolics - it's a long week with 3 good circuits.
More details to follow, but as ever it will sell out very early and will be a classic.
One note for this Frolic - to allow us to put a Frolic back on we need to sell every place we've budgeted so we really can't carry any extra helpers, hold places etc - it really is very tight to break even at the price we're going at.

Sounds great and plenty of time to arrange time off. With regards to the experience level required I've done the 20 track days and one at Silverstone with L.O.T. but that was last year, does it have to be this years ?
Heard so much about it and I would love to try it.
Cheers

You will be fine - they just dont want any first time track drivers coming on the trip as its a touch extreme and most people on it have done tonnes. I dont think too many people manage more than 20+ per year , unless your name is Mass and the circuit is KH!!
