The Volvo Owners Club run a trackday series. I'm planning to enter at least a couple of rounds next year when I've got a bit more power to play with.

cheers

We could gatecrash a VOC Motorsport section track day. The bad news is it costs a fair bit once you've tired a suit, helmet, got a license, etc.

Announcement: it's maybe interesting to determine the best date for everyone! What about on Sunday 3 April?

NOOOOOOOOO!!! sm13 I won't be able to make the meet then, unless it's in Yorkshire! Would love to be there, but it doesn't look possible, make sure there are plenty of cameras, video footage and stories to be posted! Pete

Aymat, any other day is fine other than 2nd/3rd April between those dates, however if it's to cause anyone else problems, do not worry!

I must say, it would be easier for me during the week (not the weekend) but... I'm not sure it's a good moment for everyone... (?)

During the week around that period would be ok as long as its in the easter holidays I'd imagine. Its still quite a long way off, so theres plenty of time to organise :)

Not sure if it'd be any use, but Beaulieu is in the South, but would be quite an epic for the northen guys I'd guess. Where else would be a viable spot in the south? I can do all apart from the 19/20 March weekend (which isn't in Aymat's list!!!). Anyone else love the feeling of a plan coming together?!?!
