It is driveable from my house, just means I need to get up rather early.

I'm still undecided as I have a lot going on in June...

One of the best shows of the year mate and if your heading to Trax then there is no excuse, if you need to kip at mine then let me know, I will be there..........

devonutopia · 06-05-2008, 22:21

Indeed - possibly the best 2 day show. made better by 1/4 mile action. I plan to do around 20 runs as it's good value for money compared to Trax's £6 for a 0-60. here you get 4 runs for £4.

erm, that's not quite right J, the way I read it is that it'll cost you £4.50 a run if you book 4 or more! 20 runs would cost you £90!!

I'm there on the Sunday btw

Hedge · 07-05-2008, 07:52

I have probably missed some so they should add their names

1) Jason - both?
2) Makefish - Sun
3) Hedge - Sun

No need to update this thread as Autometrix will regularly email me the list of everyone who has booked, so I'll keep it updated.

sibart · 07-05-2008, 19:55

Booked today, weekend ticket. Will try to make sat, sunday deffo

Superted · 07-05-2008, 20:25

Just signed up for the Sunday..........missed last year as my daughter came into the world pretty much the same weekend so missed it..........not so this year..

Zero · 10-05-2008, 19:44

Thinking about coming on the sunday, can i get on the stand if i only come for the one day ?

Zero · 12-05-2008, 11:38

Yes you can come for just one day and yes you can put your car on the Briskoda stand (the more the merrier

). When booking on-line use the drop down menu to include Briskoda as your choice of car club

Zero · 15-05-2008, 21:16

All booked and done, i'll be down on the Sunday and going to have 3 goes on the strip.

It's my first time so should be interesting

Lewiscypher · 19-05-2008, 23:10

Hi booked my weekend ticket down as Briskoda , will come one of the days in VRs SE , not sure which day yet

The other day ill be in my mk1 Golf GTI

devonutopia · 19-05-2008, 23:29

Nice one.

Not had my first email yet from Autometrix saying who's booked in at the moment.

Timo · 20-05-2008, 12:01

I camped last year and it was a farce. By Fri night we had Range rovers being pulled out by tractors. Every other car was towed out. Everyone and everything was soaking and the family area was flooded, none of the planned entertainment went ahead and none of the food stalls turned up for Saturday. Poor planning of location, looked nice enough but nothing considered for the hundreds of cars that would be going in and out all day. The show was ok but on the first day they put all the stalls on grass which quickly turned to a swamp. Second day brightened up and was ok but the whole event organisation put a lot of avid GTI campers off to a point where they may drive up just for the day on sun...possibly. Shame

Won't be able to make this now..................

Makefish · 23-05-2008, 09:40

My ticket came yesterday

devonutopia · 23-05-2008, 13:06

So did mine. Still no email from autometrix to tell me how many have booked so far.

apd007 · 23-05-2008, 13:12

Just to let you know it's looking unlikely I'll be able to make the weekend now, may still be able to make one of the days though, probably the Saturday.

I booked the hotel in Leicester for Saturday night last night so I ought to get round to booking my entrance ticket.

**VRStu** · 23-05-2008, 14:47

I've booked the tickets now Jason.

jaymd · 23-05-2008, 15:40

Just booked for Sat.

irin · 23-05-2008, 19:05

Are those tickets per person or per car?
I ask because I never been to such a show , only one was in Dorsky where was a price for car entrance.
