Let's add him to the list - needs to be very much predominantly Maserati, but with the odd other "very interesting" car thrown in. C63 AMG just about sneaks in, especially if he drives it like Adrian.
All, Drew is right...we want as many Maserati as possible but will take other interesting cars or cars that will bring the punters in................In the past the C63 has been one of the most popular cars we have had and also BMW M cars draw a crowd as well.......The more cars we have the easier it is to run the gate. We will be allocating track time this year in advance so we share it out fairly and make sure we have a wide variety of cars on track at anytime......
C63, M3 CSL, M4.......These cars will make the gate popular along with Maserati.......One Maserati that always draws a crowd in the GT ..... So the more the merrier.
Drew, planning on sleeping in your bed that night so will be there on time

Yep....
Turn up first thing - have a briefing from the chap in charge (should be AndyK, but if he turns up late like last year, it will be me or someone else...).
Then a few sighting laps, taking a driver who has been before as a passenger.
During the day, you can do as many or as few laps as you like. The idea is NOT to destroy your car, but equally it would be preferred if you could do more than 1 or 2 fee paying laps. No pressure though - if you discover you don't like it, nobody will be making you drive. On the other hand, it's quite addictive...
The gate will be managed by the gate team, taking the money and providing tickets for people to get into the cars. All the driver needs to do is wait for punters to be loaded into the car, drive as fast as they and the passengers are happy to accept on one lap, back into the pits and change the pax.
There's a break at lunch, with an air display, then back to the lapping. We like to rotate the cars so they get a chance to cool down. That's why we need more than the 15 or so we had last year, as that meant some cars really did a huge number of laps, rather more than was good for the brakes.
Outside the track driving, there's an awesome amount to do. Didn't see any of it last year, but the year before herself drove a full articulated truck round the outside of the circuit, there are rally cars, stunt bikes, JCBs, a funfair etc. Brilliant family day out.
And to add, it's a bloody good fun. Not just cos of the fast driving (which I'm not good enough to find relaxing) but the atmosphere and the spirit of the event is a blast.
I'll DFV to get some t-shirts printed up again this year.
