Birkett 6 hour relay, Silverstone 26th October

Postby eastlmark » Fri Sep 27, 2013 8:51 pm

All being well I will be competing in the Birkett 6 hour race at Silverstone on October 26th.
I am part of the Herts county auto and aero club team and other than my Clio, the team will consist of a Camaro ( or clio v6 trophy), Caterham, Mini, Morgan and a Ferrari 308- a bit of a mixed bag I know! How great it would be to get a RAOC team for this event next year, c'mon guys get your ARDS and a decent Alpine race car ready.
If you do not know this event it is the traditional end of season Relay comprising of around 70 teams and 400 cars all (not at the same time) on the full Silverstone GP circuit. Great event to watch from the pits. Not sure yet if I will have any free tickets for this one or not but its only, I think £9 entry.
never thought I would want a list but now find myself needing one just to remind me: Clio V6 230, 5 gt turbo, 5 Gordini turbo, Megane RS 300 Trophy.

only the second person to notice Lee....Mr Gamblen wins first prize.
Car in Italy, slight issue with getting it here and where to put it and even worse, what to do with it. Have had enquiry to sell it on so may even not get the chance to sit in it. Was due to got to Paul ricard today and pick it up afterwards but that's a lot of miles on the trailer, having said that feel crappy today and just the thought of 1500km each way road trip does no appeal. Bed right now does.

any how back on topic, Birkett 2014 RAOC team.

back on topic, if anyone wants to come alone I may be able to get an entry pass if you let me know straight away. Will need to be posted on so don't wait till Friday night before asking. Don't know how much the gate price is but its cheap, cheap cheap iirc from last year so pop along anyway. I will be in car 49F pit 11B. Practice and race takes up pretty much all day until it gets too dark to race.
