Interest in a Smart meet at Donnington Park Circuit
« on: March 02, 2013, 12:07:20 AM »
Hello everyone, having not long been a ForFour owner and already loving the experience. I have seen quite a few ForFours in and around where we live in Lichfield, Staffs. Question is, would any members be interested in having a Smart ForFour meet at Donnington Park Race Circuit sometime this year (preferably in the summer). I suggest Donnington Park as there is a great race program + there is a fab museum + cafe :P and it is fairly central, which could attract members from north and south. If the 'happy to attend' list gets long, then i would be willing to ask Donnington if they would put on a track day or something similar for us (they do for the Ford and Ferrari owners). I will be at the Ace Cafe meet next month so perhaps we could discuss it further then. All the best kimi  :).

Hi There, Thanks Mr Singh, your number 1 on the list :). I was hoping for May to July or possible in Sept anyway as most will have holidays in August, but see how the weather goes, although you cant promise anything these days!

You should put a poll on this thread, although from experience maybe 3 people will respond...

Count me as interested, especially if there's a possibility of a track day - always wanted to do one of them.

I could be interested.......no real preference as to when it'd be. Would just have to see once it's arranged.
