Highest Bid So Far: Paul Palmer £350.00

This is an additional item added to the auction that took place during the Summer Ball, we have already raised £4500 from items generously donated to the club. All monies from the auction items will go into the SLIPWAY FUND.

A Day At Donnington Motor Racing Circuit, Monday 14th July. The top bidder will need to get the day off and be over 16 years old.

A Day at Donnington Race Circuit with Sytner BMW and Howard Warrington.

It is a Track Day where you will be able to take laps in the range of M Power and Alpina BMW’s – if the bidder happens to own a BMW or MINI then they will be able to take it on the track themselves.

I will be going with my CSL and you will be driven to and from the event in this car. The CSL will also be available for rides round the track – which has a “grin factor” of 10!

There will be professional drivers on hand to take you out in the very latest 400 bhp M3’s and 500 bhp M5’s.

The Alpina factory will be there with the latest range of Alpina B3 Biturbo’s and B5’s and they have promised to bring their very special and valuable E30 M3 which was the first M3 to win a major championship and tempted BMW into going racing again.

Frank Sytner is due to be there, if he is you will be able to get out for a few laps with him in a replica of his 1987 BTCC Winning E30 M3.

It would be useful if the bidder could find or borrow a crash helmet but there will be some available at the circuit.

This item was kindly donated by Howard Warrington.

Kindly bid for this item by sending an email to [email protected] with your bid, mobile phone number and full name.

Auction ends Thursday 3rd July at 12 noon.

Happy Bidding.

Entry Forms have been coming in all week and the current estimate looks like we will have over 50 Pico’s out racing. We have a number of visitors attending the Nationals so please give them a warm and friendly TBYC welcome.

You can enter on the morning but it would be helpful if TBYC sailors could get theirs in beforehand, this will help with results & speed up registration.

There will be a briefing by the Race Officer at 11.30 a.m. on Saturday morning with the first race scheduled for 12.55 p.m. start. If you would like a packed lunch these will be available from the club chef but need to be ordered in advance of Saturday (£3.50 for a sandwich, chocolate bar, crisps and a bottle of water). Visitors please speak to the chef as soon as you arrive.

After sailing on Saturday your entry price includes a free meal and Karaoke. If you need extra meals please either note this on your entry form or speak to the Chef (extra meals coat £5.50 each).

Any other questions please give me a call. Entry forms can be downloaded from this website. Please click on “Pico’s” down the left hand side on the screen.

I look forward to seeing you on Saturday.

TBYC Cadets – At Cadet Night this week on Thursday 19th June Rupert will be giving a talk on what to expect and how to prepare for the Pico Nationals.

I would like to apologise to all who competed in the Peter Hayes Trophy on Sunday, particularly Kevin & Lesley Iles.  The published results are wrong and so the worthy winners by over two minutes on corrected time are Kevin & Lesley in their new National 12. 

I would like to thank all those who emailed me over the last couple of days patiently pointing out the anomolies. No doubt the Sandhoppers will want a word with me because I told them they had cleaned up…

The revised results will be published as soon as someone with the appropriate skills can get to the office to upload them.
