That VTaaaaaaar looks pretty hardcore!!!
Toad - what's your like on the road? Noisy? I can see mine ending up being as light as I can make it and a weekend car with a sensible diesel for a weekday commuter.

Yeah, it's a pain up the butt. The semi-ridgid mounts, poly windows, and no interior / sound deadening making the loudest thing you can imagine!

Looking forward to seeing the 106. We could get a proper little grudge match going here, Saxo Vs 106.

We rented llandow(i ran an event there for ssc)
Weekday(friday) was £1800ish, weekends were substantially more. That was based on 35 cars approx at a good price per car.
Brands evening session is much more fun IMO and could probably be done for £50 per person, better value than track sessions and much better organisation!
Edit: The above prices included first aiders, marshalls etc...

I'm thinking of investing in some ear 'muffs' for mine due to the noise on the motorway overtaking!! And that's with a full interior !
The hard group n mounts do make the car shake, wouldn't say it's too bad. I changed from the Group A (metal with a small rubber inner bush) over to one of those baker bushes and it quietened down a little - made it more bearable!

I wander if it was organised whether you'd end up paying a lot yourself as the organiser, picking up the people that would drop out!
Evening sessions sound good during the summer, especially at £50 a person

I think we paid more for an ambulance etc, can't remember the exact amount.
We covered it anyway by charging sufficient. And you take a substantial deposit/full payment before booking the event.
Llandow 1, late apexage
Llandow 2, lean y0
I'm bored of llandow lol

You have to start getting some track time in mate. It's what these little cars are all about!
