2018 Trackdays

Hi all

Just thought i'd let everyone know what I've booked up Trackdays wise (with Baz) for this year.

For some of the EU trips will be leaving the Exiges near Schipol to save ferry trips and allow us to fly - before you wonder how we are making this mad plan work!

Anyway, please feel free to join in - if you want details of our hotels/logistics etc - just let me know;

March 18th Spa - Lotus-on-track (will ship the cars across then fly out on the 17th to collect)

April 3/4 Spa Double Header with Javelin (£640 for 2 days)

May 8th Zandervoort (flying out 7 back evening 8th) (LOT)

May 25th DN19 Ring - £499 - planning to fly out on the 24th (morning) so we can make the briefing the evening before - stay at the Ring Thursday and then at Schipol after dropping the cars for the ferry back on the Friday night late - first flight back to Edi Saturday morning.

June 15/16th Croft and Anglesey Double Header with LOT

September 17/18th Zolder & Zandy double header LOT- might get another track added to so no logistics arranged but plan to ship the cars back out and fly across.

October - currently we have only booked the Donny & Oulton LOT double header at the end of the month, but there are 2 Spa doubleheaders and a Ring day through the month so suspect we will at least do Spa.

Hoping to do SIDCs etc in amongst the rest of the year, but the longer trips always need a bit more planning (&permission) so getting them sorted early.

Welcome to join in chaps - please do!

Andy

Nope mate - not easy when kids are on holidays, and I've done all the tracks.

Wanted to go back to the Ring and Spa as much as possible this year in truth.

I've booked up for the following

Spa : 3rd and 4th April

Croft : 15th June ( I can't be bothered diving to Anglesey, must be getting too old)

Zandvoort/ Zopder : 17th/18th September

And I'll see what else nearer the time.

I need to do a spa this year but always liked the March trip. Not keen on javelin days but maybe less of an issue at spa and overtaking on both sides at spa is actually good fun.

Zandvoort/zolder would be a great double header though as I’ve not done zandy for ages.

Extremely jealous of all those trackdays. I have booked Spa in June and will probably go for the Zandvoort / Zolder too. Anyone have any idea where I could leave my car for a couple of days in NL before Zandvoort (I have to go somewhere else!)

Thanks
Stewart

Contact our Bob van Melzen, bobvanm here, or Yvo Tuk (runs Elise Shop in NL)

Both great guys and Lotus fanatics.

Also think folks have left cars at schiphol airport for not a huge cost.
