Ducati Only Trackdays 2016

Discussion in 'Trackdays & Rider Skills' started by Desmo Dave, Feb 1, 2016.

  1. Yes I am over from Germany for a long weekend. I have an off road three day event I will be doing in Wales the previous days so I thought it would be foolish to miss Donnington and a chance to catch up with everyone.

  2. i'll be running in the novice group on my 1199, number 78. Watch out for me and if anyone can give me any useful tips from track side feel free pop in and say hello, I'll be in the Ducati Coventry pit. I will have biscuits but can't guarantee any will be left by 9am :)

  5. Anyone know if Donny is full?
     
  6. I asked for a slot in fast, or inters second choice and they told me they were operating a waiting list and I was >10 on it. Possibly spaces in novice, but unlikely

  7. I only do track days & personally I have never had track day insurance. Just never really bothered. I know I can fix it, unless it's catastrophic, but I kind of accept that slim possibility. That said, if I had a pristine road bike, I might consider it. It's just that even with insurance, after the hassle of the claim, the delay, not having a bike, then the slow process of putting it all back together, they are never quite the same afterwards, are they? And then there's that huge excess. If it was me, I'd probably look at hiring a bike instead.

  11. Some fellas to show me the way :) only done Doni in the wet so hoping its dry....
     
  12. Can I book online here or do I have to ring up and speak to Wendy?

    California Superbike School UK: Schedule and Bookings

    Its saying there are places available at Donnington for Inters and Fast, I thought it was full?

    Anyway would like to do Silverstone if possible.
     
  13. I couldn't until they gave me the specific link. And when I booked they said fast only left, or I'd have booked inters
     
  14. Phone Wendy and talk to her. Andy
     
  15. Ok thanks, I will ring tomorrow morning, hope there are places left for a little novice
     
  16. It's possible that they've had some cancelations and just put the spots back in the pot
    Either way, I've just booked and paid for an Inters slot at Donny (don't fancy fast group on my road bike as I'm bound to bin it trying to keep up with some slick shod race bike)
    The site has accepted my payment and sent me a confirmation, so I guess I'm in :)

  17. Pussy. I'm in the big boys group on a scorpion clad multi :p ;)
     
  18. If it looks calmer than a normal day in Fast group, I'll see if I can move up on the day. We can have a road tyre tip toe around the circuit as my Diablo Corsa's are shagged
    Although, I have some 180/60 supercorsa SC1 scrubs in the garage I could fit on Friday :)

  20. I found the gravel at Coppice. Stayed upright, but smashed my balls against tank so hard I thought I'd burst one
