The whole point for us organising the event is for a number of reasons, which seem to get missed every time by so many...
1. Renting a track is bloody expensive at the best of times, let alone at a weekend, and especially when talking about somewhere premium like Cadwell, Mallory, or Donington etc.!
2. We try to make a whole weekend of it to make it worthwhile attending.
3. Llandow is chosen (a) for it's price, and (b) because it's a good stop-off for anyone travelling from further north, as we appreciate Plymouth is an awful long way for many.
What we don't get is why people can't understand that somewhere like Cadwell is an 8 hour drive for us! EVERYONE and their mother will go to somewhere near them, but once a year we try and arrange a WHOLE, and let's be honest, CHEAP weekend of activities. We're hardly going to be able to do that starting with a £12,000 track day 350 miles away!
We chose the bank holiday for two reasons. First was the weather... if the weather was rubbish we could possibly have had the ride-out on Monday, but also because if it had all gone to plan Sunday night would've been for travelling home with the Monday off to relax and wind down!
All points that sadly seem to get overlooked time and time again! _________________ Andy.
