TOTB Hotel

[vetteheadracer]

However this hotel in Harrogate which is about 20 miles from York does 1 night stays and looks nice.

Chris is allowing Saturday night on site parking within Elvington airfield this year, it would be a lot safer to leave your cars there as some of the marshalls are camping, and they will be locking the main gates

[vetteheadracer]

May well leave the cars onsite overnight, but I won't be camping!

[ZR1427]

Nigel ime easy on the Hotel arrangements so just count me in on whatever arrangements you make,but i draw the line at camping especially with men who own yellow cars

[ZR1forFun]

Nigel, I think I will take a room, I'll confirm that with you tomorrow.

Thx

You are absolutely right on the money Cliff.
He gets very, very rat @rsed and then doesn't know which tent is his!

He didn't have a yellow one then so one can assume this condition has only worsened!

Nige,

Could you put me down for a double room please, I'd prefer to travel up the day before, plus we can have a 'Team Meeting' in the evening to discuss tactics.

Thanks for sorting out the hotel. Top man that.

Great stuff, thanks for organising the hotel. Should be a great weekend.

Do you think we should have a team name and maybe get some vinyl graphics made up?

[ZR1427]

Nice one Nigel.

[vetteheadracer]

I did think about a team name.

Trouble is if I throw it open to you lot it is bound to degenerate into a whole load of "nob" or "nob sucking" jokes!

So to get the ball rolling.....

The Flying Vettes?

Elvington IS an airfield and we will be on the runway and it IS like "Flying Doctors" only "Vets"...

or we could go with....

Throbbing Muscle?

Okay I await the deluge......(bet those Viper owners start sending rude ones....)

[ZR1427]

Serious; TeamZracing or TeamZvettes

Taking the p 1ss; PhalicRacing or BlueVeinRacing.

if you insist, if we put our collective minds together
I'm sure we could come with something very crude and vulger, without taking the p##s to much !

Perhaps that should be BlueRinseRacing!

[ZR1forFun]

TeamZracing or TeamZvettes

The 'Z' could be a red slash as in 'Zorro'

Time to get busy with Photoshop.

[shoebag]

The Flying Vettes reminds me of The Flying Pickets who were all pass their sell by date.
You need to get with the times

Ive done some drawings on this a while back and extended the top&bottom of the Z above and below the other words ,in red of course.

Look at the way Nissan do the R in GTR and and use the same type in the Z,Just some ideas.

Hi Cliffy,

I tried sending my "slant" on your logo to you this morning but the email bounced 'cos your mailbox is full.

Try clearing your deleted folder in Outlook.

[ZR1forFun]

Did you guys get my e-mail with the picture attached? Wasn't sure if it was readable by all. Had the same prob with Cliffie.

What d'yall think? Heads together team.
