With the launch of the new forum would it be a good idea to have some form of meet n greet/ coffee morning/ pub meet or something?
Not necessarily to show off cars but more of a get to know people's faces ect

Would be up for it too, but like you say it would all depend on where and when.......

Well where are you #trackaddict boys based? Only seems fair you guys should travel the least distance and I'm sure you'll know of some spots local to you

It's all well and good people meeting up at track events but most people's focus will be on the day in hand, be better for a meet and greet so people can meet n mingle without having to worry about there next session out on track

I'm from Essex but remember that place from my uni days up that way.

I'm from Essex but remember that place from my uni days up that way. The place is still there, I used to go in my youth (im 30 now) and its plenty big enough to hold a decent meet at..... I just can't bring myself to use it. I just have bad memories of it. I'l hunt down a decent location that is easily accessible and car friendly. Thinking of contacting Donington Park to see if we use some space there on a weekend.

Fair play, yes I have to admit I haven't been there for about 8 years, I just remember it being quite a large ish venue.
Donny sounds much better !

Yeah it is plenty big enough to host a decent sized event... I just has a bit of a stigma attached to it. There is another option of hosting something at Bruntingthorpe Proving Grounds as well. Just need to speak to my mate up there.
