Default oOple Trackday?

Who'd be up for an oOple trackday at somewhere like Blyton Park? My MX5 is slowly taking shape over winter as it's sorned probably until about march / april.

I'm thinking weekday - not sure we'd muster enough for an exclusive oople day at all - but we can all have a laugh and I can hand out some special decals for those playing

I know rob fox is up for it - but wondered if anyone else would be? There's nothing really to crash into at Blyton - so it's rather safe. Unless I spin in front of you.

Interest level?

Be a good sociial outing with a bunch of us there. Sounds like my 1.6 eunos is the slowest car of all but it's good fun to drive.
Are people ok with a weekday? I think we're often busy racing or stuff at the weekends - some of us self employed lot can do it whenever but others would have to book it off of course.
If there's enough serious interest then I will look into it seriously - even if we all go under a javelin / whatever trackday banner - or if we can sort it out direct with Blyton (not sure if that's possible).

Damo - hard choice - both would be fun in different ways. Love an RB5 myself and an escort mk2 for that matter.

I might need Jim Dixon to sort a set of
Impreza wheels and tyres out! I don't really want to use my mint Speedlines!

I could be tempted to find the "track" saxo in my garage.
Weekday suits me better.
Anyone got a trailer I could borrow? And a tow car?

This sounds awesome! I think it would be easiest to just pick an existing trackday and all book that.
I just booked to go to Blyton on the 15th with MOT www.mazdaontrack.co.uk
Lets pick a date and let battle commence!

Rob - you're probably totally bang on with that - would just need to get a list of people interested and make sure there's room for us all.
