A16NS V · 16-06-2008, 20:32

Do we know what the weather is likely to do? It's a crap week up till Friday by the MET office. if it rains it will save me polishing I guess

4) any bunting, etc - anything to tart up the stand - even a couple of traffic cones.

I may be able to get some red & white bunting tape if thats any good?

Well, from what I can gather I heard a long term "good" for saturday but sunday could not be so sure. Still a way to go yet I guess.

Makefish · 17-06-2008, 08:56

Weather forecast certainly looks like it will be better than last year

Looking forward to this now

What time do we have to get there if we are going to be on the club stand?

Should be in the ticket/clubstand stuff that autometrix send you.

But from memory I believe 7,30am - I'm aiming to get there for 7 ish.

as I'm only staying about 10 miles from the place.

Don't be ridiculous, there is no way we are going to be needed to be there for 7:30am!!!! Last year we rolled up around 9:00am iirc.

Sorry but i prefer the time of 9:00am to 7:30am lol

devonutopia · 17-06-2008, 14:53

I'm not being ridiculous. I just want to get in there early to get the car sorted out. Gotta swap the front wheels, burn some rubber off my slicks somewhere, clean the car, coat of polish, etc.

chrisw_vrs · 17-06-2008, 16:17

devonutopia · 17-06-2008, 16:19

Still saying 7.30

Can get layout and everything sorted out good and proper in advance then

[sits back and resigns to 9am arrival, and also that Inters probably won't allow stand access until 8am anyway.

chrisw_vrs · 17-06-2008, 17:00

GSPK · 17-06-2008, 19:10

Just to help clear things up. The 4 places for Phil will consist of ME and 3fs jnr (Phil) in the Octy, and Phils GF (Rachel) in her Fabia vrs with one or two of her mates.

HTH.

Well i was thinking of getting there between 8-9am, i've looked on the tickets and all through the documents given but there is nothing on there about times.

Suggest some one e-mails them, i can do it in the morning if no one else does it before.

bodie · 18-06-2008, 08:38

taken from the website.

Opening times
The event formally opens to the public at 9 am, although the main Bruntingthorpe site gates will be open from 7.30 am
to avoid queueing on the public road. Only traders and special pass holders will be able to gain access to the GTI International
site before 9 am.

Makefish · 18-06-2008, 08:49

Weather forecast is NOT good for the Sunday!

Fezboy · 18-06-2008, 09:12

You want to be in there before 9am or your all going to be sitting in the public queue outside

I'm going to come along for the day on Sunday depending on the weather(which is not looking good at the moment

)

chrisw_vrs · 18-06-2008, 09:30

Makefish · 18-06-2008, 09:36

Any of you travelling up from the South on the Sunday I'm planning to stop off at the Services at Jcn 15A on the northbound side of the M1 at 7:45am for breakfast (with the SCN guys) and would be great to meet up with a few of you beforehand

Let me know if your'e interested.

You should have a red label with 'Briskoda Clubstand' written on it, designed to hang on your mirror

If you havn't got one, I'm sure one of our creative types could knock something up!
