I am pretty held up with some personal work the first and second week of august and I dont want to miss another track day. Voted for the last week of August.

last weekend of august suits me, first weekend also suits me, the two inbetween are a problem.
@ bottle- if i remember correctly- the track fees are around 1 - 1.5K and then fuel on how much and how you drive.

my palio's going to be there yay!

Great news. MMSC it is.... i voted for the 1st week of Aug but am ready for any other weekend too. Prefer as early as possible so i can plan the months expenses.

Oh yeah baby, i still got enuff tread on those slicks.

So MCL, when do we see confirmed dates as Aug is just around the corner?

OT:
So, u're leaving chennai after the track day??

[mclaren1885]

Confirmed sources tell me that the MMST will be booked for the last week in August to test some Rolon developments. Which means we have only the first week to deal with. Guys, kindly confirm soon or we will loose this chance too.

So are we doing it on the 3rd and 4th of Aug?

Its actually either the 4th of 5th of August. Unless we get the numbers, even otherwise I shall be going alone. So those interested can join in anytime.

I will be in Chennai anyways...whether it happens or not.... so I am game....

I'm in for sure. Gotta get my brakes services over this weekend and the slicks swapped with the daily use tires.

So MCL, i figure this is an unofficial event with no support and with no formula cars right?

Any tips since this will be my first unofficial trackday?

[mclaren1885]

Aditya, let me see if I can churn up some more numbers. Nothing much to worry about. Get on track and have a ball. Thats the only rule for those who have done it before. And for those who haven't will be briefed before getting onto track. So shall we have it on the 4th or the 5th? I am fine with either of the dates.

Keep it on 4th. That will give you a day to recover by spending it with us chennai blokes, maybe a drive to mahabs.

No, i've offered that a million times and they never do that because the track consumes a LOT of energy and at the end of the day no one feels like driving.
