MM same here Will bring my little one he would love this. Will confirm with big boss. he is turning 4 on 26 so Nice Bday surprise.

is there an age limit to skidpan. He would love it in his Baby seat. even if it is a slow drive on the skidpan?

 

[Coisman]

Don't know... maybe call the number I posted and ask :dunno:

 

[Bugger]

Damn this would've been the perfect opportunity to try the new toy. I'm bummed now.

I've seen guys take like 2 year olds on the skidpan as long as they are in proper childseat I don't see any issues provided you take it easy

I am guessing BMW does not allow this type of thing if the car is still under motor plan?

I would love to come along, but am not willing to lose my motor plan and I don't think my insurance company covers me in the event of something going wrong

 

[Coisman]

Call bmw, I've heard some insurance companies offer a daily tariff to cover your car, maybe motorplan does the same

 

[Johnny8Bit]

For a track day the motor plan is not the biggest concern, it's insurance.
Normal insurance won't cover damage on a race track.
As far the motor plan goes, if you really are concerned take your plates off.

As for the skid pan, it's absolutely safe (unless you are an idiot). Go and enjoy.

Taking a kid in a baby seat shouldn't be an issue either, discuss with marshals and take it easy. Really can't see a problem with this.

Found the old clips of Gopher and I on skidpan

 

[Mr H]

No helmets necessary on skidpan. Very safe, lots of fun and little to no damage/wear on tyres. :thumbs:

 

[Coisman]

Thinking of taking my braai like the old days :thumb:

 

[sash]

sunday.., yay.., need to confirm if i can bring the little one along as well.

---

only problem would probably be the queues and time spent waiting to get onto the track and skidpan.

 

[Spy007]

skidpan is normally quick even if a line. there is a time limit per run depending on line lenght.

@ Coisman. the same Stand as last time?

---

Riley is normal moody by 12ish so then might head home.

 

[Coisman]

Yes Spy,

Ek braai op die pavilion waar ek altyd braai...

As jy verby die Skidpan ry, verby die garages op die regter kant, net voor jy deur die hek ry by die gokart baan, draai jy regs, daar sal ek wees

Heel bo op daai pavilion is n plek waar hulle altyd tv kameras opstel, lekker groot platform, en jyt uitsig oor die draai waar hulle gewoonlik die drifting doen. By ford en mercedes se plek

[Coisman]

On the way to the shops, gonna get Vienna and buns for tomorrow at Zwartkops and just pack hotdogs.
