UK Rockingham Monday 6th or Sunday 12th August

Post by trixynut » Tue Jul 24, 2007 11:22 am

Want to do another trackday soon, and fancy Rockingham, Northants.

Good track for the TRX: smooth, new, bendy, and no big straights on the National circuit. Facilities good too, and nice and central location.

Hottrax have 6.8.07 and 12.8.07. Not checked availability yet tho.

Anyone else fancy it? 8)

Dave.

:D Full days racing is out unless I win at the dogs tonight (highly unlikely, which end wags?). Also other dates are not good either due to work.

Monday 6th would be the only option for me for Rockingham. Advanced group is not an issue but teh weekend cost is too high. I can do Donnington for that sort of money and it doesn't take a rocket scientist to work out which is the better track. Also, Sundays at Rockingham are very limited in time (IIRC they can't start until 10am and have to finsih by 4pm) so you only get 5 sessions.

Mallory on teh Friday is probably a winner for me

Phuk,

I agree the weekend cost is high, but thats why: it's a weekend.

I like Rockingham, but can't do 6th cos I ain't fast enough! :(

Mallory is good: 10th I can do. May go for that one...

Nice central location: easy to get to and another TRX-friendly track. Anyone else up for it?

Dave.
