Right we have had a go on track... now its time for something a little tamer but possibly even more fun....

Saturday 12th June 2004 will be our Handling day:-

or maybe it will be "Judgement Day:- vRS vs 4x4":rofl:

in association with www.conedodgers.co.uk we will be having a day out in the Andover area M3/A303 of hampshire.... (full venue details will be posted shortly)

There will be a full day of activities including slaloms, handling tests, and a grip / drift track!

Any car any level of talent will be catered for.... no chance of collisions as all runs are solo / very spaced out... the only thing to hit is the odd cone so no reason to worry... much lower speeds than track

Cost per Car will be

As the instructions were a little bit too BIG...

9.00 am gates open, 9.30 briefing 10.00am start, please be prompt as we must keep the access gate closed.

Err, Q, in my book, Barton Stacey is East of Andover. Maybe it would be worthwhile editing the post (and mentioning it to Declan?)

I might be late, possibly very late as I might have to divert to the Bristol area on the way (some diversion as I live about 15 minutes away from the event) How can I get in, living locally I know its fully fenced & theres absolutely no way in, Ive tried in the past
