So, in the hope it helps me plan the stand parking ( )
Who’s parted with 30 quid for three days fun???
I’ll begin:
Who: Jon & Louise (peleton72)
When: Fri, Sat & Sun
Staying: Camping
Bringing: Mk 1 trackcar (and a borrowed Mazda Mk 3 Production BRITCAR racecar, and a borrowed MaX5 No1 Mk 3 racecar, and a borrowed Caber Coffee van…oh, and the Mission Motorsport Mk 1 race car…oh, and the Mission T5…)
Re the camping, I had earlier posted a suggestion:
I’ve looked at the 1st-tickets offer and given that I would be leaving the car on the stand as might some others, a 40sqm pitch looks quite spacious. Given that the cost is £55 plus £7.50 per person, it crossed my mind that club members intending to not take car on pitch may benefit by coming together to purchase a pitch, my thinking being that 40sqm would easily accomodate 4 people in two small tents without cars at a cost of £42.50 per couple ranther than £70.00 each.
Depending on work I may only be camping sat night with a early get up on Saturday morning as such the £70.00 for camping feels a little steep. If anyone appreciating my logic wants to organise a pitch with me (promise we’re not noisy), please just shout.
Hence I’ve not yet booked the camping, anyone willing to split cost of a pitch do shout (or pm) and we both save! I’m entirely happy booking the pitch and 4 people and sorting cash some time over the weekend. Otherwise I’ll book one by mid week.
Many thanks to Tim sharing his pitch, camping arrangements are now confirmed and packing can start…
I’ve a volvo V70 on the drive, packing that to camp is just SOOO easy, throw it in no worries! Packing the 5 is a different matter all together. Putting it simply, is it vital otherwise it’s not coming. So:
1 x tent, 2 x sleep mats, 2 x sleep bags, 2 small bags clothes, 1 x trangia and bits, and some drink and food. Thats about it. In someways it makes life both quicker and simpler. Just remembered will need torch this time of year, off too pack one now.
Looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow eve, have a good journey. Ian
