View Full Version : NMS Track Day 2015

After being at BMWs M Performance day at Knockhill on Thursday thanks to Harry Fairbairn, I’ve managed to make a friend who works as an instructor at Knockhill and has said that we could get our own group at one of the regular Hot Hatch Days. This would mean that it would be only NMS cars on the track at one time.

Obviously I don’t have dates yet but depending on how many are interested this could be organized for the sometime in the next few months. Also because we are doing it as a Hot Hatch Day this should keep costs down.

Who would be interested in this?

1. William
2. Brian
3. John
4. Craig
5. Rob
6. Davy
7. Jonnie
8. Eddie
9. Andrew
10. Ali
11. Fossy

Yes! I've always wanted to get the JCW on track to see what it can really do. After HBT I know that the car is capable of handling anything I'd be willing to throw at it on a public road but I really want to know where its limit is at.

I've had a reply from Knockhill. To get our own session we would need to have between 22-28 cars and priced at £55 per car. I would be wanting this to exclusively for NMS Members as we can have more confidence as to who we are own the track with rather than people that we have never met

I'd imagine that an NMS track day would be like an NMS run but with more courteous driving.

...enjoy the journey.
