Chriss Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Sprint Taster, Blyton Monday 3rd JuneThe TR Register, The organisers of The Revington TR / TR Register Sprint and Hillclimb Championship, are running a Sprint “Test” Day at Blyton Park on Monday 3 June 2013. This is open to any Standard or Triumph car or derivative, as is their Championship. This means you can run on this test day with a Triumph in any state of tune from a road car to fully modified. No special car modifications or protective clothing for sprinting are necessary for this event. CT and other Triumph club members are most welcome. The price for the day is just £40 / car. Yes, that’s right just £40 per car, not per driver. So you can bring additional drivers for no extra cost. Blyton is just off the A159 between Gainsborough and Scunthorpe. You can expect to get a lap every ½ hour, probably up to 8 during the day.The track will open at 9.00am and close at 5.00pm. There will be a short driver briefing on the hour, every hour – so you can turn up whenever you want. Your £40 will include free helmet hire if you need to borrow one (wearing one will be compulsory), free tea and coffee all day long and stop watch timing. There will be a maximum number of 50 cars, so please book early.There will be first aid, fire service and recovery. You will need to wear a crash helmet and cover all bare flesh, ie no shorts or t-shirts whilst driving and the driver must wear gloves. It will not be run as a track day but the same level of scrutineering will apply, ie none. You will run at your own risk and will need to sign the track disclaimer. That said, Blyton is a good circuit, I have been there, and there are no nasty kerbs and plenty of runoff areas if you do get out of shape.The purpose of this test day is very simple – to encourage anyone with a Standard or Triumph car to have a go at sprinting without the expense of modifying your car or buying protective clothing. It would be good if we could get 10 or so entrants, although the Auto Ecosse is the preceding week end. If there is a demand for future years we could build up our own events within the The Revington TR / TR Register Sprint and Hillclimb Championship.Booking Instructions will follow shortlyIf you are interested please list your name and car below.
