megawatt Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 I am doing this trackday in September. It's on a Wednesday and Thursday with a hog roast and camping included. It's £140 all in for 2 days!!! You will have to join this club for £20,www.omcc.co.uk, download application forms and pay soon. The last time I checked there were still spaces available. Would be nice to see some of you guys again, even as spectators??? Quote
Guest philgale Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 thats cheap....would love to do it but cant not started the new job yet so need to be careful with my cash Quote
OhJay Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 I'll support this one and say please please please go, last I heard they were thinking of cancelling 'coz they still had 70 something spaces left.There's a reasonably large contingent going from the school I'm at and I'm considering asking if I can tag along with my camera Quote
megawatt Posted August 4, 2011 Author Posted August 4, 2011 You can tag along with me when you get there mate? I'll be there on Tuesday evening with a crate of beer,hic! Quote
OhJay Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 Me and my big mouthChatting to the guys about this this afternoon and apparently it's about 99% going ahead now. Said I was toying with the idea of asking them if I could tag along with camera and one of the guys turned round and said "There's 8 of us going from here. I'll ask the rest of them but if you're prepared to give us the photos of us afterwards we'll all chip in for your accommodation costs. We're used to paying £30 each for photos of us so if it's only a tenner each we're up" Quote
megawatt Posted August 13, 2011 Author Posted August 13, 2011 Be great to see you there mate and I'll happily pay you for any good pix of me. Especially if you make me look fast? Are you really good??? Quote
OhJay Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 I'll happily pay you for any good pix of me.No you bloody won't! You can have them.I didn't expect the guys to offer me anything, I hadn't even thought of asking, let alone considered it Quote
