    Just booked this and it'll be my first time there but not looking forward to the early start to get there.
    I know Andy (M3ntalist) from here is going, anyone else joining us?

    Simon do you live fairly local to the track?
    I was wondering if you could save us a place in your garage for 2 bikes if you get there before us as we're travelling from North Wales.

    Hi buddy. Coming up from Bristol aiming for about 0730. More than happy to save some space. Drop me a PM with your mobile and I'll text you the garage number when I get there. Regards Simon

    Im 99% coming, may be bringing a friend for his first track day so may go in novice, need to speak to him first.
    Long drive from north Devon so may go the night before and kip in the van or could pick Simon up on way past Bristol and cruise up together

    Ron haslam race school the day before, hmm... Could spend 2 days up there :)

    I may fancy this. Can I ask those that have done donnington before what your lap times are and what group you are in? Not sure what group to book into I done a 1:57.83 on my RHRS blade so not sure what group I would be best suited too.

    Unfortunately I now can't join you guys as I've sliced through a couple of tendons when I slipped with a knife cutting a bloody cable tie, out of action for another 5 weeks then light duties for another 3.
    Another summer for me of no riding again but on the bright side at least they now have plenty of time for the SP rear shock recall!

    Hi all, as Rich said I am booked on this one, would be nice if I could get in a garage with you guys if you could text or phone to let me know which one you're in (PM for number). I'm probably going to be there for about 8.30 in 08 white transit with 09 repsol blade.

    Thanks in advance for any PMs.

    If you're still considering the two days travel lodge is only £36 if you don't fancy Kipping in the van, and only a couple of miles from the track.
