felters Posted July 27, 2004 Share Posted July 27, 2004 18 cars - 5 Westies - and a good day out. Bad news is there are only 3 days per year and the next one will be in May '05. But if you think Hill Climbing may be for you then give it a go. I loved it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adhawkins Posted July 27, 2004 Share Posted July 27, 2004 I was considering a day there actually...how much actually driving time do you get? How about writing a Westfield World article? Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdinhants Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 Did it a couple of years ago.Also agree was a fab day.Got mine on video as well to remember the day. Let the OLd Trout use the video so have no useable film to watch. But had a really good day in June with 2 convoy runs and 8 individual in the course of the day. And a good lunch included J D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toby Mack Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 I was there too (good to meet you felters! ) and completely agree. One of the best value days I have been to. Helped that my company paid for me of course We got 9 runs in which was about as much as I could manage, I was knackered by the last run! A very well run event and excellent feedback from the instructors. Only downside was that there was no timing, I found my finish line speed was significantly higher when I did Ashes all "wrong" but it would have been nice to know if my overall time was better or worse.
