curborough sprint course is my home circuit, being a member since i was 16 now its great that this very technical sprint course is still alive, they have some fabulous events going on in the summer months and i will always be a member, it seems i may be able to get the keys to the course for a day next year after alittle discussion with the course sec, i was wondering if anyone here would be willing to come along for a trackday, it would be a bring your car, we lock the gates and have fun trackday, this track isnt the easiest for beginners but is infact huge fun, when i had my car s/c'd i had to drive like a daisey but soon got back on pace, the mole hill will give you possible nightmares, the fradly hairpin is great for alittle sideways action, if we run on a 3 lap basis, the cars will not be stressed and you are on the track alone as its a sprint course , you can go as slow as you wish, which i do reguarly when im not in the mood to go for it, but if your willing to give it full beans you will have a fantastic time, thats a promise, depending on the overall amount of cars i would love to think we could get 15-20 people their and have a cracker of a day, who knows maybe i will be able to get a formal event going once a year were z4s will have their own event, heres some pics ive got, not the best as they have not intentionally been to get the course if you get me. Before you say...... i no..... i need a new camera. Maybe this could be the start of an official z4 clubday???
To get an idea of how the circuit runs, this is the video andy took of me when doing my data logs

i dont have any actual photos of just the course unfortunatly but will aim to get some if need be, i reckon between 15-20 people we can do a FULL trackday for around 50-60 quid per person based on what it costs to get the track hired for a day, im hoping i will get a decent discount due to my continued membership and also i always help set the track up and put it away every year at my own costs.
so to summerize....... A mixture of Zeds, we could maybe stick some food on, maybe have a concourse section going at the end of the day, a track session, and basically a good old chin wag between us lot, and for my projected costs of 50-60 nuggets you cant go wrong imo. I will stress the course isnt really suitable for beginnners, curborough has very little run off and is unforgiving, but remember were not racing, its all in the name of fun so we can go as slow as we please, i will only run @ 100% a few days of the year and most the time just go briskly with fun in mind.
