I'm sorry, mate. Its a simple request from the land owner. Its a secure site which we have to gain permission and be escorted to even view! We have thought about everyone else way before ourselves as this is by no means easy for us to do if successful with the venue. We have to build a venue from an empty shell and will probably cost our club in excess of £2000 which we've worked bloody hard to save for our outdoor track. I will also have to take at least a week off of work to set this up and I'm self employed. It's been made harder by trying to keep the venue that suits our requirement as close as possible to MA for people like yourself. I hope it works and have more information shortly. Matt

All entrants will receive a brown envelope through the post with the instructions, then you will have to read them and destroy all evidence. You will have to drive to a set location where you will all be put into black vans with no windows, blindfolded and then driven to the location.
After the event you will be given a pill, you will then wake up back in your car with no memory of it ever happening ![]() The truth is out there .............. ![]() |

Only one problem with Ardent looks like they have an event on the 15th Jan.
"15th January 2012 - World GT, F1 and Pan Series Round 4 (With Supporting Classes for Mardaves and Minis)" Do you think they would change the date of Petit? That would really annoy people that have booked hotels already. The mystery continues... ![]()

Taken from the Petit website :-(
We have been in close contact with Nicolas over the past months on a regular basis and even more so over the past couple of weeks as I'm sure many of you are aware. We as a club were asked to RUN the event and the VENUE was agreed with MA so it's not our fault they have let us all down. We have exhausted every avenue and invested much personal time searching everywhere for a new (suitable) venue to host the event at. The reason we decided to try and assist is because Nicolas and our club didn't get the final decision about MA until last week because we were promised by Silverstone Circuit that they would let us use the Venue regardless of MA being involved or not. They changed their plans late last week due to BUSINESS REASONS!!! As I mentioned we have another venue in line, however we're dealing with a multi national company and things move slowly in these circles. We wanted the chance regardless of MA's involvement to host such a prestigious event even if at a great financial loss to our club!!! So again, I'm sorry if you feel like you have been ill-treated or kept waiting. I didn't want to get involved in giving possible wrong information when I feel we as a club shouldn't post anything regarding Mr Petit's event without it coming from him first. It is only natural that he has probably asked other venue's/clubs as some of you're hinting at and that is fine. I feel we've done everything possible to make sure this event is as fantastic as the past years that I've been fortunate to attend. Matt Owen SRCMCC Chairman Due to some problems with MA and other "secured" venue closest Silverstone, I would like to announce you today that the 6th edition of the PETITRC RACE ( ^^ name of the race) will be back to.... ARDENT RACEWAY at Kings Newton in Derbyshire. If some of registered drivers want be refund, it will be possible. Just send me an email. Roll on ARDENT RACEWAY! ![]() Some places are available yet but not for a long time. Remeber you, this 5th edition was FULL and some of you stayed at home. Wake up!! |

All we need now is a "I'm not going to Petit race" on the same date in the Silverstone area. Who else is up for it?

To be honest, what will that achieve other then tensions between the various parties.

Well it'll give all those that can't get refunds on the accomodation booked somewhere to race. Just an idea that's all, as I recall that several people were not happy after last years event.

Right folks,
As most of you already know the Petit venue has changed. I had the delight of finding out the same way as you via the competitor email. Thanks for that Nicolas! Thank you to all those that believed we would deliver as we always do, we appreciate your support. We hope to be announcing another event (possibly at area 51!!) over the weekend. Watch this space!!! ![]() Cheers, Matt
