Popular Post RP420 Posted July 31, 2022 Author Popular Post Report Share Posted July 31, 2022 Great day out at the NI Supercar Sunday event at Bishopscourt today - 4 confirmed TLF members @RP420, @KeithK, @AR13 MEO and @Cooper and we all got a few laps in, as well as fielding a lot of interest in Lotus and getting a chance to see some awesome machinery both in the paddock and in action. There were also another couple of Lotus in attendance and hopefully they, and a few other very interested enquiries, will join this group. Many thanks to @Bibs for funding the purchase of the TLF and Lotus banners that we displayed - the banners. got home safely so will live on to advertise our NI group on future days! @KeithK is keen to have another session at Bishopscourt and I'm certainly up for that, now that I know which way the track goes! The first lap was fairly nerve-wracking as I had no idea where the track went, having never driven it before! If we could organise a track session there sometime, please drop a note on this thread if you would be interested in attending.

KeithK Posted July 31, 2022 Report Share Posted July 31, 2022 Yep, great day, thanks Ryan for putting it out there. Anyone else interested in Bishopscourt? Once I know numbers I'll make enquiries. Thanks again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AR13 MEO Posted August 1, 2022 Report Share Posted August 1, 2022 I'd be interested in a track day. However not this year. I need toe links and a baffled sump first and among a load of other stuff, that's a winter project. When tax and insurance runs out I'll sorn it for a while. Like Ryan, I have never even seen the top / back of the track before. I thought it was really strange they let us out without as much as a sighting lap. A couple of low crests too that are high enough in a lotus! Or is that just my excuse for coming off the turn onto the back straight... backwards. Thanks for organising Ryan.

KeithK Posted August 5, 2022 Report Share Posted August 5, 2022 @RP420Regarding a track day - just the two of us interested this year. Contacted Roy at Bishopscourt in the hope we could join in with others, he couldn't give me dates as he's busy setting up for tomorrow's event. I'll phone him next week again and be in touch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RP420 Posted August 19, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2022 Hi Andy Thanks very much for joining the group! I'm afraid @KeithK and I met for a great afternoon at Bishopscourt on Tuesday afternoon this week. We definitely hope to do it again but likely next year before we organise it again. I had never been to Bishopscourt before Supercar Sunday but must say I really like the track. From my own point of view, I have been lucky to take my car on track 3 times in the last month and want to give the tyres and brakes a rest after that 😬! I do hope to organise another run out for the group sometime in the early autumn. @Cooper on here also has an Emira on order and is also looking forward to getting it in the autumn. Hope you can join us at the autumn run out. Ryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
