TOC
(Toyota Owners Club) have organised a trackday which they have invited us to attend. There are 60 places available divided between 5 clubs so we have 15 places available for IMOC members. We are the only MR2 club in attendance. Also this event is a bit nearer the southerners so i hope it will go some way to addressing the 'northern bias' of our current trackdays. Because there is a lot of room at Brunty, I think we could turn this into a bit of a meet for those not going on track.
The venue is Bruntingthorpe and the date is the 1st of may, admission is from 8.30am with those signed up for to begin the signing on process at 9am.
Sighting laps are at 9.45am with the open pit lane event starting at 10am till lunch at 12.15pm, restart is at 1pm till the finish at 4.30pm. The cost for the track time is £99 per car and includes admission, second drivers and passengers but passengers will have to provide their own helmets and their are 20 helmets for the drivers to share but bringing your own is recommended. Specators admission is charged at
£5 per car and each of the 6 clubs will be parked in their own area, also trade stands are allowed so can you contact your site sponsors to see if they want to attend, a cost of £40 per trade stand is made purely to cover the cost of addisional toilet's. Payments can be made via:

Please PM me to let me know you have booked as i need to keep an eye on numbers.
All profit from the gate will be placed in a separate bank account for the deposit for next years event which will enable us to have 135 cars out on track with parking for 4,500 cars and I have asked for a 1/4mile for next year.
The other clubs in attendance are; TIF, LOC, TOC and MKiv supranet so there will be a good variety of cars on track.
I would say that most will be relatively inexperienced so it will be a good day for newbies. Now onto the bit of a dilemma, I had originally envisioned the IMOC trackday to take place in May, but i am worried about it clashing with this event.
I've been chatting to the other admins and we wonder whether it'd be best to move our own trackday to the autumn. Please let us know your comments on this.
