Littler Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Very hard to get much of a response from a lot of these places. Whats peoples thoughts on woodbridge? Javelin have been the only people to show interest to date. 1/4 mile and 1/2 mile timed standing starts, two lane racing. Handling circuit, no drifting. http://www.javelintrackdays.co.uk/trackday/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=6 I'm up for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheTurtleshead Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Sounds like the best idea we have so far...hopefully we will have more luck with responses in the new year. Although 'handling circuit' needs a bit more definition. It sounds like some cones on a car park to me! Which is a bit pants. IMO it needs to be a half decent circuit setup really.

Woodbridge is a big track, have a look at the link, top right corner would be used for the 1/2 mile stuff, track stuff never seems as popular as 2 lane racing, track events struggle to get even a few members interested in past years.

Helps its just down the road from me as well. If they have an office there or a contact I dont mind a drive up and a chat/ help with any bookings etc if needed.

Josh Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I'd be up for Woodbridge too Handling course sounds like fun, as a club track day, plus drag racing sounds great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a look at the track layout, looks alright actually! 1/2 mile / 1/4 mile section for the people who like to drive in straight lines... and use the rest of the circuit for a competitive point to point style time trial? That would be awesome! Bag of Haribo for the winner ofc. Lets get it booked! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveR Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I'm WELL UP for this this year! Woodbridge looks awesome, so it's a +1 from me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 At the moment it is subject to dates and how much it costs, the guy at Javelin is working on it over xmas and will give me a full breakdown early in the new year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DodgyRog Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I would still like to do a track day, but there is no way I am going to be under 102db now, I won't even be close:music: Plus the over 600 mile round trip would be a bit much as well I guess:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking with Javelin 105db is the max and its a static test, i passed it twice at woodbridge with my Supra running at the thunder road events.

DodgyRog Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 (edited) I guess I would have to get it checked 1st, doing a 600 odd mile trip to be told it's to load would be a bit annoying I can't really see us doing that sort of distance for a track day to be honest, I would have to up the mileage on my Insurance policy to do this and the Dragonball:D I will make it to a Track one day Edited December 20, 2012 by DodgyRog (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin Bieber Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 sounds really good, did they give you any ideas of the dates we could have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 105db at 3/4 max revs is pretty loud, my car measures 97db at 5500rpm. sounds really good, did they give you any ideas of the dates we could have? Not yet, I'm on it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DodgyRog Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Mines pretty load now JP, but I can't believe it would of been as load as yours I would be interested in knowing how load it is really, maybe I will go and buzz a Police car and find out if they have a DB gauge;) It sounds mental, but with none of the padding (silencer material) left in the rear box and it being straight through, it's only just bearable in the car, although i do love the sound Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monsween Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Sounds like a good place but even further away from us so I doubt i'd be heading down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westy Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Sounds like a good place but even further away from us so I doubt i'd be heading down Agreed...looks a good venue, but at 451 miles each way plus extras I doubt I would be going either.

JamieP Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Looking at google map, from scotland its an extra 57 miles than the pod, thats nothing for an epic event like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
