We've tried this many times. Unfortunately there just isn't enough interest. Last attempt was at Brands and was intended to be a VAG group only track day, with 60 cars, promoted by 3 forums and advertised across many more. This was the thread...

Across all the various VAG forums we struggled to get interest, the event ended up being redone as a generic open pit lane track day. I went along with a couple of other members.

So to be honest, you'd never ever get enough interest on SC.net - sorry!

We tried to arrange this a while back in the mk1 section. We had 12 interested and sign up but I the end there was 2 of us on track and another 2 popped in and said hi.

i just think its timing i think it has to be the correct time of the year. it would be good rather than doing full day sessions it could possibly be say a morning or an afternoon session id pay like 80 quid for a morning or afternoon seems more affordable

We only paid £89 for an open pit 9am till 5pm with an hour lunch in the middle lol

The problem with a morning/afternoon session would be that everyone would be on track together and it'd be too busy to really test your car.
