Booked in for the track day at RAF Valley, cheque has been cashed but not heard nowt yet. Do you get any confirmation? Or details of the event like start/finish times format etc.


Who else on here is also going? Will be my first foray onto a track in the Loco so am looking forward to it very much.

Any tips, what to take, what to look out for, what to do, anything?

Cheers

I'm booked on it. Not had any confirmation yet but Derek (jubal) said not to expect anything untill closer to the day.

Juds list looks pretty good.

Based on last year's experience it's very informal. If you sent them a cheque and it's been cashed, and as long as you gave them all the details re your name, address, car reg etc then you're sorted but you can ring and confirm. I can't remember getting a written confirmation last year. I just turned up about 8ish and joined the queue, which was at the guardpost to the right of the main entrance.

Make sure to bring photo ID. And don't bring anyone with you who isn't pre-registered. They won't be allowed on.

Here's the details again:

quote:
Full Name
Full address
Contact no
Car regstration (or details of tow vehicle used for arrival)
All Full names of spectators

The payment of this day is £50.00 per car.

All persons arriving at RAF Valley are required to have a form of photographic ID, without the ID, entry will be refused.

The payment by cheque needs to be within enough time for the funds to have cleared before conformation of entry, the cheque is to be made payable to:- Service funds RAF Valley and must be sent to the address below. Plus also place a note to let them know if you required novice, intermediate or advanced groups.

I'm doing it too! Providing that I can get the car finished in a month!

I'll have to contact Beth about spectators as I missed that bit!

Cheers for the tips guys

Would've thought there would've been more of us going though. Nevermind, will mean more space and track time for us
