Euro Trackday Power Plugs

[Mutl3y]

Hi,
how easy would it be to create a sticky in the trackday/racing section of the forum with regards to power outlets in the garages at the various tracks.
I've got 3 booked this year so will be taking photo's of the distribution boards so that people can take the right extension leads with them.
if its not for the forum then at least i will know for future
what you recon?

the garage we were in last week only had 8, 2 pin sockets and 18 bikes. luckily one of the lads with us had a 5 pin plug wired to 3 leads with 4 gang sockets on the end.

this is similar to what we used but instead of the blue 3 pin sockets there was standard uk 3 pin plug sockets in strips of 4 sockets.

Hi Jay,
only issue is if its 32 or 63A commando's
suppose you can make a 63 to 32 step down and then have the above so you covered in all eventualities

Hi all,

no, you buy the fuel and it comes in the cans, then you swap for full cans when empty. the best thing is no going to fuel station with smell fuel cans in your hire car.

Re: Euro trackdays power plugs

We used to take the cans back to hotel and fill up on way back to the track to save a few quid but apparently the local police are on to it and if you haven't got a carriers licence......

Re: Euro trackdays power plugs
