the real muddy90 Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Hopefully most of you will have seen this in the calendar or other forums, but for those that haven't... Dorset Land Rover club will be holding their open driving day on Salisbury's Tidworth driving range. It's an 'open' event so no need for membership. Just turn up on the day, no need to book. The site is vast & I doubt we'll fill it! All the info is on our home page 'Dorsetrover.co.uk' or just ask if you need to know anything.

DrRob Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 http://dorsetrover.co.uk/tidworth-driving-day/ I assume the byway on northern and western perimeters are unaffected by this? Planning to lane around there that weekend. Will it be barrier taped off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd be surprised at how many think it's just a free for all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco-Ron Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Thanks! Might steer clever to avoid any issues of "you haven't paid!" Rob, it won;t be an issue, if you stick to the byway there will be no risk of you needing to pay......... simples... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd be surprised at how many think it's just a free for all! We have the same issues when running Comp Safari's up there. A bit easier to police as racers don't look like standard trucks, and all marshals are known to me. One year we even had some idiots thinking it's be fun to follow the arrows and drive round a live course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco-Ron Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Dlrc members £25 for vehcle and driver, non club members £30. Passengers are £5 each, if that passenger wants to be able to drive, then it's £10, not 5, we basically make nothing out of the passenger/additional driver charge, landmark/msa take the fee straight off us. Should be a good day, feel free to spread the word!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
