Hi Group, I see we are three ,(+the factory car/s)would be good to get some more on board before all the spaces run out. I know that Bruce is staying over near to the track,may well do myself yet as we can start to plan this owners club website over a few beers. Mark.
PS the front wing is working really well since I played about with the angle of attack,dead steady at well into three figures.

Ross, are u going to come down from Manchester (I think that's where u r from ,is'nt it??) to stay overnight before the meeting. I know u were concerened about the drive,but it would be good if you could,as three heads (over a few more beers) could really get the website format cracked.

I've booked my hotel room - £70 for two seems like a pretty good deal! I'll hope to get up there for around 6/7pm so that we can maybe all go out for a pub dinner? See you there!

It’s the Hanover at Hinkley – see www.hanover-international.com/hinckley/index.php?option=1

There’s plenty of parking – not sure how secure it is but we can always form a western-style circle and chain them all together!

Seriously, mine’s on a lockable trailer, and I can lock the waterproof cover down. I can’t remember if you have a trailer…

Talking of Hinckley... we have an opportunity to tour the Triumph motorcycle factory on the Friday afternoon (it's only five minuites away from the Hotel) Anyone interested?

Sorry for the lack of responses recently guys - just been a bit busy.

I'll still be coming down early Saturday so I'll have to miss out on any Friday evening festivities I'm afraid.

PS. do we know that Simon/Tom are definitely coming yet?

Cheers, Ross.

Just heard that Simon can't make Saturday:

Simon said:
Unfortunately there were no places left when we went to book up although the Easy Track guy originally said no problem etc. (He) sounded quite keen to organise some days with us and maybe Porsche Club, ie we would share a day.

If we can get there we will but otherwise have fun. We'd rather not see any wheel-less cars on Monday morning.

Can't think what he means by that!

Mind you, I think we've finally got him to start thinking seriously about Track Days, though
Simon said:
I think we will have a word with RMA and see if we can set something up some events for later this year and get a few more owners together.
And here's some hot news...
Simon said:
We may go to Bedford as we are building up a race car and need to put some test miles on it.
I wonder what series he's thinking of racing it in?
