dollywobbler Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Ah well. Another time. I'm definitely keen to do another Autosolo event. I've got a year's membership to use! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moog Posted October 31, 2017 Author Share Posted October 31, 2017 December is the next one in Accrington. Half tempted to do the Sat and Sun. Depending on Mr & Mrs Bucketeer and their sleeping arrangements - there might be a bed if you want to stay over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the weekend before a major deadline though, so it rather depends how well things are going! eddyramrod 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Moog Posted November 1, 2017 Author Share Posted November 1, 2017 Ohhh lovely. Just a reminder that 14 and over can enter. Over 12 can come as passengers and you don't need a licence. Also will likely have spare seats going in Puma If anyone fancies having a go but doesn't want to damage their car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucketeer Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 The AX will definitely be making it's Motorsport debut at this event. Me and my co-driver will happily make other sleeping arrangements. dollywobbler and The Moog 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Moog Posted November 1, 2017 Author Share Posted November 1, 2017 I am not honestly sure Huggy will actually fit between the cones! Biggest I have seen so far is a Focus. Held at Blackburn services on sat & Sunday. You can enter either or both. Mine age to drive is 14. Sat is a lot quieter. Cost for the day is about 30 quid. Starts at 9 ish and finishes at 4 ish. We all help set up the course and take it down. That plus driving plus marshalling. If it is your first time then you will probably need to run with a passenger (not bucketeer!). After that you can do autosolo - run without passengers. Prizes for all classes and fastest run of the day. Bucketeer needs to defend his hoodie at the next one. Highly recommended. The fact Lady Bucketeer is coming up to Blackburn again shows how addictive it is. eddyramrod 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddyramrod Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Cost for the day is about 30 quid.That's a shame, it's going to rule me out this month. Also, the timings will rule me out for Saturdays anyway. Who are these part-timers who get two whole days off at weekends? Can I get a job where they work? (The answer to that last is obviously no, I've been trying for 40 years!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddyramrod Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Saturdays are just not possible for me, so I'm going to wait until the days start to stretch again, then I'll have a whole Sunday at this.

The Moog Posted November 17, 2017 Author Share Posted November 17, 2017 Just gentle nudge as the entries close on 27th November. Sent my form in today for 3rd December.

dollywobbler Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Thanks for the reminder. Email sent. Lexus I think... (on account of the Honda not having a first gear hold). The Moog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
320touring Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Thanks for the reminder. Email sent. Lexus I think...

Just hillclimb to go then.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moog Posted November 17, 2017 Author Share Posted November 17, 2017 Half a plan is that if Dw and Mr Bucketeer are staying at hotel Moog the night before the autotest then might hold a n informal shite Christmas do on the sat night at a local holstery. Don't know if that is of interest to people ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moog Posted November 18, 2017 Author Share Posted November 18, 2017 Just had an email through and the autotests are fully booked for the Sat & Sun. Bit gutted - need to get in earlier next time i think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
