Nick Jones Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Thankyou! Very pleased with the finish point :). It being <10 miles from home makes the decision alot easier, as knowing I can be home good and early on Sunday makes entering reasonable in the face of what other family members have planned for the same weekend (mothers!!).It's even possible that my on-event mileage might exceed the to/from mileage this time........Haynes have a small track too..........CheersNick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clougher Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Hi,I'm hoping the above list hasn't grown too much and there are still spaces available for this? :)I'd really like to take part, is it suitable to have only one driver for this event? With a navigator? Also, as far as I can tell this is run through the night, no? Just trying to figure out what I can about the event - sounds fun!Cheers,Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yogi Posted February 25, 2014 Author Share Posted February 25, 2014 I did once do all the driving on the event itself but with my co driver doing a lot of the driving to and from the event. There is an hours break between the two halves and the adrenalin keeps you going. But if your navigator doesn't drive at all you will be shattered at the end. After a good breakfast and a bit of a sit down you won't wasn't to move again. You could have a sleep in the car after breakfast but a proper co driver would be preferable.

clougher Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Cheers for the replies guys - seems one driver might be a bit hardcore? Especially considering it's a first attempt and in a 948!Thanks for the suggestion Radders, but I'm sure I can rope my dad into it, currently it's me and my bro, but I'm still learning to drive. Hopefully I'll get something sorted out quite soon :)Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
