Scott

As it is a LOT organised event, I think it is Lotti only on track, including Caterhams and VX220's.

When has LOT days ever been limited to just Loti?

Good news if I am wrong Scotty, just waiting for Paul to call me back.

In that case if we are low on numbers at all I can ask some of the regulars on SIDC etc.

Yep, should have realised from FF8.

Went through several events and every car was a Lotus/Caterham/VX220, but of course BigD and the Admiral are going in their Evo's. Just as well as Mads is hoping to come in his Ferrari.

Just been chatting to Paul in France and he is now going to put a separate log on page for S_E for KH.

This means that you do not have to worry about LOT membership, just put you details in for the track day. Will post it up later.

Just had this from Paul. For anybody that has not yet signed up on the LOT site, they can do so through this link which means that you do not have to pay the £30 membership fee for LOT membership.

Tut,

I will probably be able to come as well, but not committing just yet in case our house move drags on. Sounds a good day.

Just signed up to this. First day of my 2 week summer hols, hopefully family will understand.......
I am not a member or LOT but presumably some way of letting them know I am in SE.
Paypal just took £140 of me anyway, I'm sure it will be OK on the day as these things usually are.

Tut / Gents

Been trawling through this thread and not sure if I have missed something. Is there a gathering of cars at the Speedfair on Sunday 19th?

I can't make the track day on Monday due to work commitments but will be going up to KH on the 19th and would like to join in with anything happening that day.

Some advice please gents.

Never done a track day with the Lotus but would love to do this one on the 20th. Question: Would I be like a "trout up a tree" at this for my first track day or will it be okay as a novice?

Done a few track days on the bike but none in the Lotus. :?
