Hottrax have now removed Saturday 8th August from their calendar ............

until 1st APRIL, to enable all those with italian exotica to book in for this day

Karen says: I will put the stock to zero so that no-one else can book on but yes they will have to ring up and book on 01908 566067. If they just quote your name (Charlotte Knight) then that will be fine. We will put the day back up for general sale on the 1st March if there are places left unfilled.

Notes:
Licence and Age Requirements for Rockingham
You must be over 14 years of age to ride on a track day at Anglesey, Croft, Donington Park, Knockhill, Lydden, Mallory Park, Rockingham or Silverstone. This is the same for our European Events.
You must produce either of the following licences to take part:
a) a DVLA motorcycle road driving licence. This may be restricted or not. (Photo card or paper licence)
b) a recognised competition licence of any level (ACU/FIM International etc.).
c) if you are between the age of 14 and 18 you must ensure that you have a responsible adult with you at all times
The maximum noise limit is 105db. Bikes tested over this noise limit may be excluded from the event with no refund of the event fee.

3 groups, Novice, Intermediate & Advanced, please ensure you book the correct group for your ability.

This event starts on track at 9am

So, round your mates up, the track is a good'n - garage space great too (so if wet you have got shelter). Viewing from on top of the garages



Original post Would you be interested in doing a TD at Rockingham on a weekend in August - international circuit, with mostly other Ducati riders?

edited to add: this post is also on Ducatisti http://www.ducatisti.co.uk/forum/track-days/27163-anyone-interested-td.html
& the ISC

Basically, gauaging interest - and if enough (even maybe 10, tho it looks like about 40+ already) we'd just get folks to book themselves in for it - saves everyone strife - means nobody loses money for deposits, also means your mate with his NondaYamaSuzaki can come too if you wanted to mention it to him.
The idea being that if so many Ducati riders book this in the next month, then there wont be the opportunity for many other marques of bikes! :D

I must admit I only managed to get in as a guy told the security guard I was with him (and he was supposed to be instructing)..... :cool:

crikey, Mrs Rob has let you come out to play! Or was it a case of

'well, if you think it's a good idea, go ahead'

which clearly means the opposite.

Boing, just a reminder of this Saturday TD - seems there are a fair few booked on this now with a good mix of Italian exotica - including at least one DD16 as well as a collection of monsters :cool:

Having met up with Karen from Hottrax yesterday when we were testing at Silverstone, she is happy to not put this 'live' on their site until the beginning of April - so those who were counting pennies - you have a bit longer, tho there are already approx 50 booked in with assorted italian bikes from M600's through to DD16's!
This TD will be ideal for those who are diping a toe in the water for the 1st time - and remember its a Saturday - so you can snooze off your tiredness the next day. (caveat - this assumes that many have Sunday off! :D )

I cant get to this one, but it states you must have some kind of competition license, and a UK license- as I have neither living abroad- I am planning a mega ride over to the UK at some point- would I be able to attend one of these events if it tied in together?:on:

You would need to check with the company running the day whether a full Euro license was acceptable.
