I will be attending on Sunday 11th. If anyone else is coming I'd be happy to meet up so that we can drive in together.

Hmm, I was wanting to go to a show with the camera. Might just be attending this one

Not sure if I'll be in the Marlin, but I should be there assuming good weather!

yes lads, if you are driving to Clifford's Mount for the Sunday morning I'll tag along. I was going to drive from there up to CH via those lovely lanes and B roads.
Will you be going Bilsdale Bob or A19? Let me know and I'll plan around you.
Cheers.

All this TVRCC club members only stuff has sort of put me off. Don't fancy the idea of paying just to join a convoy of cars or park in a carpark. Castle Howard looks good though.

It's not Richard's fault, he has no choice. The runs we do carry a risk for the person organising them. If, for example, there was an accident associated with someone driving somewhere they shouldn't and it was found that the driver had been following an instruction. The person who produced the instruction would be liable. With an event this big Richard rightly needs the cover of the TVRCC liability insurance. I'm speaking to insurers right now regarding the NEPH Trackday specifically for photography on site. There's a minefield of compensation claimers out there.

Whats this? I haven't heard anything about paying to join a convoy or park up... I was assuming it'd be the same as last year - pay to get into the ground of Castle Howard (or where-ever).

Whats this about as well? Is it anything I need to worry about?

I'm intending to be there, Sunday I would think.
Hopefully I'll be able to meet up with other NEPHers.
I'll know better in a day or two - got a lot on at the moment.

Well done to Richard for all his efforts in arranging everything.

Yes, I'm in the club.

I shall be there, but I'm staying in York on Saturday night, as I'm on a course that day and it seems silly to drive there and back twice...

I'm going down with the NE TVRCC lot. Meeting at Washington at 9.00 for the drive down, then hopefully joining the drive through York.

See you all on Sunday

Looks like we should make our own way there. I'd like to be there early anyway.

working on it!

some scrotesque person thumped a scredriver twice into the fuel tank underneath the car and it literally threw the petrol on to the driveway, it must have been pouring out at the rate of a litre a minute, easy. no idea how much a new fuel tank is

is the Ginetta still up here Tom?

Try B&W Petrol tanks 0191 460 2990 in Dunston. Although you'll need to get the car to him

i've got macdonalds on the case although to be fair my last service cost over 2 grand and they did an awfully shoddy job, they seem to rely on their fantastic chief mechanic an awful lot too much i've been back twice at my own expense (day off and petrol costs = mucho ££££££) and frankly they should be offering to take the damn thing up to durham on a trailer to sort it properly at their own expense considering it's wrong in so many ways at the moment...

then they could do the fuel tank at the same time
