ClioSport Festival 2024 *Save The Date*

[J-J]

I hope to hell not 🤣
Unless, @J-J lets me run it over in his truck!

No truck anymore, but you're welcome to borrow the beamer for some silent EV roadkill.

 

[Touring_Rob]

Please can you bring the magic marquee again J-J? I feel like it has more memories to make.

Can you get us permission to go round the track at lunch or at the end of the day??

I’ll certainly try 👍

I’ll 100% be there this time, can’t have @Sunglasses_Ron taking all the good tracks two years on the run 😂

I'm really looking forward to standing under a marquee in the pissing rain drinking beer with a group of croal experts while also forgetting there is a warm bar 100m away. Hopefully that bloke will bring his screaming child again.

Last year was superb, no way I am missing this (unless she doesn't sign off on my weekend off application... but thats an argument for 2024).

She just signed off

Unsure on what this win has cost me.

Croals to be brurned, memories to be made, lovely stuff.

Well played Sir, well played!

 

[Sunglasses_Ron]

Please see the poll I’ve just created.

Be good to get some feedback on which track configurations that you all prefer.

Coastal was banging in the afternoon. Nothing will beat that view coming out of peel over the crest and seeing the Irish sea dazzling in the sun

That was fuckin mint pet

 

[JamesBryan]

Coastal

Any other and you're a nonce tbh 😂

 

[RSRowe]

So long as Costal is on and Club isn’t, I’m happy.

National looks like it could be good, but there’s a lot of the lap taken up just by 2 straights.

 

[Tarticmonkey]

Excited to hopefully join you all for this next year!


This years looked a mega event and watching markcup70’s videos on YouTube got me dead set on getting tickets! Some of the lads will hopefully be coming down too!

 

[Touring_Rob]

Coastal was amazing. Wouldn't want to lose that however the international in the morning was good too. If they did international then costal again in the afternoon I would be a happy camper.

As long as you don't arrive at 2am with a screaming child who then runs between all the tents shouting you will be welcomed with open arms good sir. The behaviour on track is the best I've ever encountered too. Very refreshing to not have to worry about some total div on track like you do with other organised track days.

That's how 99% of track days are run there, unless stated otherwise.

For me the extra straights are a bit boring in low power cars.

I can safely say we will be without child. Although I might cry if my car breaks.

International (am)
Coastal (pm)

Those disagreeing can get in the Menai Strait.

Was same at Blyton, Anglesey was run really well but having a mostly club event is a good bellend firewall.

International VS Costal - you're only skipping out two long straights and a relatively slow hairpin.

Considering there's two hairpins already on the costal layout, do we really need the third on the international when the chicane on the costal link is much more technical? Which in turn, made the hot laps a lot more fun!

 

[Bankrupt_drunk]

I'd love to go to this. Just need to convince the missues that i don't need to sell the car for a bit longer...

Exactly this. Coastal all day for me.

 

[Sir_Dave]

This times 1000.

Even in the TT, managing a good dose of lift off oversteer into the first left of the chicane, then instantly swopping into the right hander was epic.

Losing that to drive in a straight line twice and understeer around a hairpin doesnt sound as good

On the flipside, as long as its coastal in the afternoon (when ill do my halfday) i dont really care!

 

[Touring_Rob]

Agree with above, costal wiggle bit was brilliant. However for the brief stint I did in the morning the international was also good fun I liked them both for different reasons.

 

[Crayola]

International is good for powerful cars

Can I track the daily for a few laps?

Lob a trailer on the back and tow the Megane around for some 'In Memorium' parade laps

f**k that, the Clio is being towed there as it is 😂

 

[Touring_Rob]

I nearly said that 😂 I can see it now, 2 laps in feeling too confident... come back to pits with timing chain clattering its tits off and me wondering how the f**k I am getting home from Anglesey with two unroadworthy cars.

The irony is that his 5 series towing the Meg is probably quicker than the Megane.

Sounds like the Mini needs a tow bar just in case I'm sure it would have no bother towing the RR home...

Fairly sure Kyle could walk round the lap faster than his Megane at this point!

Absolutely no one has said that to me already 😂

I was really hoping the campsite would be such a bog in the morning I would be the only one able to leave but alas, the RR's only life win was not to be.
