Post by Old Bill » Sat Dec 14, 2019 12:21 pm

Anyone interested in driving the best circuit in the trackday calendar?

May 11th/12th with RMA.

So far we have 7 Atoms booked already, including 3no.3.5s 1no.3.5R & 3no.Atom 4s, oh and a Lotus 311

Come on guys you know you want to

I am interested, just not sure my Atom will be run in by then. [mention]CAG3D[/mention] you can see the schedule here: https://www.rmatrackdays.com/Track-Days Spa for 2 days is £949 for RMA members. They do have another event in Jul that includes Zolder for the same price so one day at each.

The La Source Hotel has rooms for €129 single, €149 double. Including breakfast.

RMA offer very good prices on the Tunnel crossing.

2 days is a good insurance against the famous Spa weather!
Atom 3.5R, Black+Red flashes, CF front & rear wings, CF bonnet & mud guards.  Bristol

Realistically it will be £2k for the track days, hotels, tunnel, food & fuel.

If you've never done it I can tell you it should be 100% on your bucket list.

It's expensive but the Atom is just brilliant there.

Cheers,
Stu

2 friends and I have booked the Spa, Zolder trip in July so unfortunately won’t see you in May. We are also trying to organise a trip to Ascari in June. It’s a superb circuit and the weather in June is perfect. Fancy that? We only need 20 cars to make it work so if the 7 of you came we would be halfway there. See post in events.

Alan,
June could work for me, but 20 cars is a tall order. Have you looked at partnering with a another owners club to get the numbers?

For Ascari, I assume noise is not an issue? That said, it’s a long way from Bilbao, so having two days on track would soften the blow a bit.

Winmoz,

Thanks for reply, hopefully you can make it. I’ve had 6 confirmed already and Ariel have yet to contact their database so I’m hopeful we can make the 20. I’ve been in touch with Lotus, Caterham and Ginetta but haven’t yet pressed the invite button as I really wanted it to be just Atoms if possible. Let me know if you are a confirm.

Quick bump / housekeeping on this topic...

[mention]AlanDBrown[/mention] is leading the charge on 15th / 16th July to take in Spa Francorchamps & Zolder, organised by RMA.

Sounds like there will be four Atom owners going, so adding here in case anyone wants to make it five or more...
