Brunty On Your Marks 8th Aug 2015 (Who's coming)

[hoyin]

Hopefully they will let me have a go as a prospective buyer!

If I can get someone to drive my other car I might try and bring both the Noble and GTS MCS.

 

[drewf]

There are always people available to drive cars OB - I'm going to be bringing two....

Andy drove my QP nearly as much as I did last year, and I expect he will do the same this year unless he's found himself a Maser.

That's great Adam! You know you always enjoy the day at Brunty

 

[Contigo]

Happy to drive anyone's car there as well and let them drive mine.

 

[CatmanV2]

I'd trade. Never driven a 3200

I like the sound of doing a few less laps in row. I had a serious brown-trousers brake fade moment. My rear tyres are on the limit, so unfortunately I will have new ones on...
Just watching the vid of Adrian reminded me of significant adrenaline feel this event brings.

Great stuff Petbri!

Don't want anyone to suffer with their cars, so with more to rotate on the day it's better all round

Hi All
Just seen the thread - I'm 50/50 as I currently have work commitments over the weekend, so as with Adam N, I'm a maybe. However, as I'm still a newbie at this, I've got a couple questions:
What do you do for insurance?
Roughly how many laps do you do?
Thanks

 

[drewf]

Insurance - since Brunty isn't actually a track day, (it's a private event for charity on a proving ground, not a circuit, there's no racing, no timing, no helmets), then cover may be available from your normal insurers. Certainly some of us have been successful with this in the past. Personally I've had mixed results, but it's worth a try for free.
Alternatively, track-day insurance can be purchased from the likes of Moris, Adrian Flux and a load of other operators.
I have a suspicion that many people don't bother - it's pretty low risk, huge run-off areas, and on the whole people are very well behaved.

The number of laps people do varies a great deal. Really, you can do as many or as few as you like, but if you want to come with the idea of only doing a couple of laps, then that's absolutely fine but please let us know, as that will help with scheduling the cars through the day.
The cars aren't track cars - they need to be rotated to allow primarily brake recovery time, that's the weakest point on them. In general, doing a session of about 30 minutes will give you about 6-8 laps, with loading/unloading pax, and the time through the pit/gate area. Good scheme then to rest the car, help out with marshalling perhaps, see the rest of the show, maybe have a passenger ride in another car (there are some stunning rides on offer), and then do another slot if you are happy with it.

 

[Andyk]

Wow.....just seen the list growing....thanks all.

 

[Morebeans]

Thanks drewf - extremely helpful.

 

[Zep]

I have just swapped my insurance to the MCUK scheme administered by Locktons. I saved £220 and they give track day cover as standard - worth a look.

That's very handy to know Zep, thank you!

Glad you are coming along Ambient.

 

[Andyk]

Drew, anyone helping will get a Maserati lanyard to show punters who they go to with questions. I have 5 would imagine we will need 5 or 6 for desk and marshal.

 

[drewf]

Cheers Andy - that's a great idea. I'll add it to the list...

 

[spkennyuk]

Skip to 32 seconds and again around the 1 minute marker is that MAF ?
