Snetterton Round of the John Cooper Challenge

Hi there,

Just wondering what everyone is doing for Snetterton on the 15th September?

Im going to look at staying overnight on the Sat at Dunstan Hall, which is about 20 mins from the track, but a fantastic hotel with a great golf course (If anyone fancies a round on Sat )

Room are about £80 per night, or a 4 poster bed (Highly recommended!) for £115 or a suite for £135.

Stayed there a few times as Hethel is only around the corner so can thoroughly recommend it.

Here are the details if you are interested



Dunstan Hall Hotel

Rich b@stard! (only joking )

I shall be staying à la maison - only 15 min drive from Snetterton, and it is free

I shall try and persuade as many people as I can to come along to Snetterton on Sunday.

Mr DK and I will definitely be there, and we shall bring some food along too

Hi!
Campbell team is staying in Norwich courtesy of our sponsor. My dad could well be up for a game of golf on Saturday morning but has to meet up with supporters later in the day

Do you reckon we need to book a tee time?
Perhaps we could make this the Cooper Challenge Golf Cup - any ideas for a suitable trophy?

I might stay there (on your recommendation, so it'd better be good ) on Friday night & Saturday night - Racer, Speedster and I are all going to Snetterton for a test day on Friday.

Don't think I'll join you for the golf on Saturday (I'll go watch the racing), but I could be up for a swift half on Sat night

snetterton

Hello - I am staying very downmarket but very close to circuit - Breckland Lodge - no manicure or pamper like pre Silverstone! - was there for a track day a while ago - cheap and cheerful - is anyone daring to test on FRIDAY 13th?
Also how many of you guys are actually racing at Lydden on Sat 7th? Bumped into Jo Bamford in Knightsbridge last week and he said there had been a pile up at the last Lydden race - poor minis!

Liz

I'm testing on Friday 13th or - Testing at Mallory on 6th so not doing 7th (will defintely be there if there are some MINI's going though) but will be doing last couple of Lyddens - Didn't realise there had been a Lydden since you were last there I've missed out on something which is unlike me

Are we going to all meet up on Friday for a chat!?

no I wasn't aware of a Lydden race until Joe mentioned the bump.
Not sure what I am going to do all of that weekend at the moment - feeling a bit lost on my own.

ha ha! That wasn't my wedding but my friend's wedding! Told my friends that I have to do the JCC and I can't go to theirs - not popular but not in the mood either to go to mushy weddings and stuff. So It will be Lizzie and the Lions at Longleat!
All is tickety boo so it is not going to be a problem I am sure!
Anyway you're right this is boring so ducking out of the office to go and play tonight. See you boys at Snetterton on 13th - it's Glen, Stephen C, Andy W, Phil H and me on the list so far.....

Goodness no - A full compliment of cars will be racing at JCC events under Team Mark Fish Motorsport - i.e Alien, Ben and me.

Min is going for the battled look - the shot look - stone chips are down one side only - they are remaining to end of season - so beware Lizzie won't be worried about paintwork any more!!!! Not that I was at Silverstone to be honest!

Ah - oh dear, sorry to hear that (if I've understood you right )

So, if the gang meet up somewhere on Saturday (maybe EB's and my hotel ), we can all get a bit tanked up. Waddya say?
