February Frolic - nutters only
February Frolic - nutters only
Bookatrack are running a trip ala the lot frolic, but in February.
Its in Spain.
Its in the south of spain.
its 1800 miles away.
Ok, now, for whoever is still reading. There going to Ascari, Jerez, and Portimao. Its 1100 quid for the 3 trackdays.
Its an absolutely daft trip, but ascari is one of those tracks that you haveto do once in your life, as is portimao.
Sat 5th Feb 2011: Ascari Race Resort
Sun 6th Feb 2011: Circuito de Jerez
Mon 7th Feb 2011: (Travel ~220miles)
Tue 8th Feb 2011: Autodromo do Algarve (Portimao)
i reckon you would need 2 days either side to drive there and back.
anybody fancy it??

Re: February Frolic - nutters only
3 great tracks, interesting. Im keen. Think i would leave the 2-11 at the apartment in Malaga and fly home then fly back down for it later on/or just before frolic
you pay for it, drive the car out and we can share the 2-11

Re: February Frolic - nutters only
I fancy it very much. South of Spain in Feb will probably be lovely!!
Just a little too early on the budget front. Feels real close to half-term, too...could have deposited wifie and kiddlies at Scotty's apartment for a week and come along to have some fun with the grownups!!
If it catches on, might take a shot at this in future...
Go on Neil, show us how it's done, you crazy guy

Re: February Frolic - nutters only
Would be awesome to do those circuits but out of my budget I'm afraid. Definately the place to go at this/that time of year. 
Re: February Frolic - nutters only
would be up for it if the wee one wasnt due on the 29th of Jan

that would actually be tempting, right up until lunchtime on the first trackday when we're sitting with a broken car

Re: February Frolic - nutters only
Just checked the Portsmouth-Santander ferry and it is a mere £736 return for the tow car and trailer (and might be a bit less with some more accurate/less conservative estimate on length of the rig). Only problem is the +/- 2 weeks off work that will be required, difficult to justify when family left at home. Tempting though.

George, what to do is fly them down for a week in the sun after the event. Wednesday to Wednesday then drive back the way you came. You get a track holiday and a week in the sun, they get a week in the sun. That's how I'm going to sell it to Ruth.
