Discounted 2-4-1 tickets [27%] are only available till Sat 31st March, advance tickets, normal price but still 2-4-1, are available till 31st May.

Only the usual three Libra owners are booked to attend so far, disappointing as this is a classic event.

Bob.

Bob,

The website doesn't have a race running order yet -- I can't make the whole weekend but I'd love to see the Group C event especially if, as rumoured, the Jaguar XJR14 and Peugeot 905 make an appearence. Any ideas which day to aim for?

Hi Bob,

I am in the process of talking the wife into this one :D

I will be booking before the end of March to get the 2-4-1

Can you recommend anywhere to stay over the Friday and Sat Nights?

Thanks

Dave.

Hi Steve,

Yes website says 'list of races not finalised yet', Fri is normally qualifying.
With two feature races I would say one on Sat one Sun, doesn't help does it.
Fri & Sun the queue's are not to bad to get in, but Sat take's ages.

Bob.

Hi Dave

We've got three couple's booked in at the Travelodge Northamton Wootton for Fri/Sat night, which is the nearest I could find at an acceptable price.
Closer Travelodge/Premier Inn's are charging a small fortune that weekend but there might be some small B&B's around? or there are camp sites close by.

Be good if you can join us.

Bob.

I'd love to take the Cox again Bob but it's not going to be ready.

I'm not sure if I can persuade someone else though.

Or are you wanting Coupe's, Rossa I . II and K3's aswell :?:

I see your frustration, and feel your pain having been there myself, you put your time and efforts into organising an event, and then the defferning silence comes from the very club members who ask.......

what does the club do, we don't do anything do we. :twisted: :roll:

Hi Dave

That's great that your going to join us. If the weather's bad we'll be back early but if it's ok we might stop and see the entertainment, but will be back for last orders.

Yes we will be in convoy, time :?: Last year it took over an hour to get in on Sat, but this year they are going to have two entrance's, we'll see what it's like Fri and decide from there.

Are you still going to Detling this weekend :?:

Bob.

It's a long way from Halifax, so travelling down tomorrow (Sat) at the show all Sunday, and travelling back on Monday.

See you there!
