The Premier Inn at Wrotham Heath is popular and only 15 minutes away. Stayed there a few times for BH events. Still early enough to get a decent rate.

I've booked B Hatch GP this morning and also the Premier Inn at Wrotham Heath, currently costing £41-50 for Wednesday and £43-50 for Thursday nights. It will be good to meet up with other members for dinner on one or both evenings.

I have had to cancel my booking for Brands as I have just been scheduled for eye surgery which will be a few days prior to 25 August.....so i will not be in fit shape to drive but hopefully once sorted, 20/20 vision and a booking for the next opportunity. As a consequence I have also cancelled my accommodation booking at the Rising Sun Inn, which costed at £55 per night (much cheaper than anything i could find via the hotel chains at the time). So there is a twin room now available if anyone is still looking.... Rising Sun Inn Fawkham Green Rd Longfield DA3 8NL tel 01474 872291 Hope you have an excellent day.

Is there a limit to the number of passengers we can sign on do you know? Thanks.
19/08/2016 09:56:04
Dave P
I don't think LoT have a specific limit but only one passenger is allowed in the car at any time. Note also the age limits on the LoT website (and posted in our forum) If you plan to bring more than 2 passengars I would check with Paul Golding of LoT that it is OK: [email]paul@theoriginaldatacompany.com[/email]

[b]Staying over for Brands[/b] If any other members are staying at the Premier Inn Wrotham Heath maybe we could meet up in the Beefeater, say around 7 pm?

[b]Thank you.[/b] Just wanted to post up here to say thank you. I was allowed to join in on your trackday here and felt compelled to say what a brilliant days driving it was. This was my first time on the complete GP circuit at Brands and was surprised at how different it felt to drive from the normal Indy track. You are all a friendly bunch of guys and there was some lovely machinery out on track. Really appreciate you gents allowing me to join in and again would like to thank you and Dave for giving me the opportunity to join you. Hopefully will be allowed to 'make up the numbers' again some time in the future. Have a great remainder of a summer and enjoy your machines Mel (HFB)

Any plans to do the GP layout in 2017?
30/11/2016 17:06:48
Dave P
Unfortunaterly not. LoT are not doing the full day in August in 2017 so we won't have the opportunity to book into one of their sessions. We are back on the Silverstone GP circuit on 27 March after missing it this year so some compensation!
