Hi

I am really interested in this - have you had a chance to start the thread with the dates and list of names - sorry if it is elsewhere and I've missed it, but I would have thought that this was of interest to quite a few people.

and me

guycuthbert · 19th May 2009, 10:19 PM

I spent today with Colin at CAT DT on their generic Advanced Driver Road & Track course.

100% excellent.

The R35 Orientation day looks like a similar agenda, so I would thoroughly recommend it... so much so that I'm considering going back to do it all again once my GTR (not here yet) is run in.

peterpeter · 19th May 2009, 10:56 PM

im interested date dependent

ramsub · 20th May 2009, 01:30 PM

Defo interested to do some advanced driving in the GTR!!

SurreyUMSGTR · 20th May 2009, 01:41 PM

also interested!

CATDT · 21st May 2009, 07:51 AM

Hi All

Apologies somehow I've managed to miss your interest on this particular thread ... better get my glasses checked I guess

Interested parties:

1. njd
2. Zed Ed
3. guy cuthbert (Orientation Day)
4. peterpeter
5. ramsub
6. SurreyUMSGTR
7. paul__k
8. madadd

Just need you to advise which course it is you like the look of ... presumably by the 'date dependent' comments it is a group event most of you would like as opposed to a course all to yourself?

Guy I'd interpret you're thinking of the full day Road & Track based day again rather than a group environment?

If you'd update here which format is of interest, that will help me to propose a group date or otherwise.

Thanks
Jo

Hi Jo. I am interested in both the group and the individual. It really will come down to the dates and how it fits in with my other commitments this summer, as well as me understanding what the difference is between the content of the two courses. I have to confess i havent read both explanations yet! Sorry!

njd · 21st May 2009, 12:04 PM

Hi Jo

I am interested in the 1 to 1 Driver development route to circuit - start with the
Diver orientation day and who knows after that!

If possible it would be great to do it with other R35 owners to meet them and share their thoughts.

Thanks

Neil

Aerodramatics · 21st May 2009, 12:11 PM

Hi Jo,

definitely interested! As per others dates, times and completing run-in all to sort !

(Plus changing "cars owned" info - LOL!).

Dom.

charles charlie · 22nd May 2009, 10:44 PM

Count me very much in for a group day.

Although judging by the group of saddos I met at Silverstone....

Only kidding!

As mentioned above, it's very much date dependant but get something together and let's get driving!

kpkpkp · 23rd May 2009, 07:08 AM

I'm with charles - let me know those dates.

CCGT · 23rd May 2009, 06:52 PM

Seems like lots of cars being delivered so would be a good time to plan group event.

count me in, What month are we likley to arrange?

charles charlie · 23rd May 2009, 07:03 PM

Well I'm snarled all of June, some weekends in July are out, but August is 100% empty at the mo!

Would anyone be willing to do the email collecting and get a email list going?

There is sadly little time for me at the mo to organise anything. Work, work and more work..... ho hum....
