SPRING WEEKEND - CASTELLOLÍ

LAST INSTRUCTIONS

Dear participants and colleagues,

Once again and in a very special way, we have to thank you for your participation that has allowed us to hang the “SOLD OUT” sign in at least one of the two trackdays of the Lotus and Light Cars Spring Weekend. The participation of 20 members of Club Lotus France and a few more of our colleagues from the other side of the Pyrenees are a very important part of the success of this event.

Those of you who already know Castellolí know what you’re going to enjoy, those of you who don’t know it yet, get ready because you’re going to have a great time.

We take this opportunity to remind you that there are still places available in Calafat on Friday the 29th and that if you are registered for Castellolí you have a great discount to do so in Calafat. You can book HERE.

Morning session driving in 2 groups of 25 cars, afternoon with 4 hours of open pit, everything ready for a great day on the track in the best possible company, all you.

The weather is going to create uncertainty until the last day, but for now forecast looks good.

As you are also a magnificent selection of passionates of this thing of us acting like a hamster and with the collaboration of all, we will have the time of our lives… well, speaking of Trackrat, rather like always?

BOXES

As usual in our events, participants in the Full day session have a place in the box included with the registration until availability is exhausted.

Due to the limited number of boxes at Parcmotor Castellolí, some of the participants who registered later and do not have a TrackratMaster membership, do not have a place in the box. In the same way, and always attending to the need to use the box, which is not the same in all cases, we will try to accommodate everyone in the best possible way and always counting on the good will of all.

If you do not have a box or you do not need the one assigned to you, but you have materials in the car that can bother you while you are on the track, you can leave them safely in the organization’s box or in the one assigned to you as fifth occupant.
