SELOC Lotus Sprint- all likeminded cars welcome
13th february 2005 at North Weald, Essex
Hi there, I hope that the Locost crowd don't mind me posting this here.....
I noticed that quite a few of you on here have been bitten by the Track day bug and might want to take your driving that bit further. Over at
http://www.seloc.org we will be organising a Sprint championship this year. A sprint is basically a track event where you do a lap alone against the
clock. It is a pretty cheap form of motorsport as A) No competitors to contact,  Licence is paid for, no ARDS required/medical etc C) No silly
entrance fees and D) Classes to suit each car- you won't get put in directly against Single seaters, etc!
For further details:

Aside from the proban (or better) suit you'll need a BS Type A helmet (from any Motorbike shop) but no fancy shoes/gloves etc.
Its a fun way to get the thrill of competition without the enormous bills of Circuit racing. Come and show us what you are made of!
The first event will be at North weald Airfield (nr Stansted) with Further rounds there, The Lotus Test Track nr Norwich and at Lydden Hill.
The events will be approx £55 a time to enter so once you've factored in the suit, etc over the series then it cheaper than Trackdays!
No medical required, licence application is a formality, no test required, Proban suit is about £60, standard cars with standard tyres are perfect.
