Following on from the launch last Wednesday, we have been extremely pleased with the nationwide coverage FemTrack has been receiving. Newspapers local, Regional and National have all expressed an interest and many stories have been published, generating a great deal of interest. Last Friday Julie and Graeme held their first Radio interview at a local station, Monday saw them at BBC Manchester Radio, and this coming weekend they will be live on BBC Radio 5 live - details will be available as soon as we receive them to enable you to tune in!
Julie said "We really have been overwhelmed with the response - proving that there are plenty of women all over the UK with a keen desire to not only drive fast, but also greatly improve their road driving skills"

THE NEW HONDAS
Wow!! These cars are absolutely fantastic!! After months of brainstorming and trying to decide which car would suit both ours and our members needs best, we decided on the Brand New Honda Civic Type R and we haven't been disappointed. Graeme took the car out on track for a shake down and said, "The handling of this car is unbelievable, not only is it fast, it sticks like Glew! (groan) but seriously, it's as close as you can get to race car handling - I am well impressed".
NEW PREMISES
FemTrack has now moved into new premises! Due to the need for 'more space' we have now moved into an industrial unit in Adlington, Cheshire. The unit is in a great location and is right at the end of Woodford Aerospace, so we have great views of the Nimrod flying past our doors! We are still in the process of getting settled in, but once we are spic and span, you are more than welcome to drop by and see what we have going on. Our Thanks must go to John our 'new landlord. He is also a keen lover of cars and motorsport and has to be the 'coolest' landlord you could ask for! His daughter Emily has joined the club and at 17 is our youngest member - Hopefully her friends will be joining her soon!

For all you girls in Scotland and Wales we will be there!
The Scottish Motor Show takes place at Knockhill on the 12/13th May and FemTrack will have a stand to promote all our activities.
