Post Sunday Meeting 24th July Basingstoke

Hope everyone is well and managed to dig their cars out of the grass and dirt, without discovering to much hidden damage.

Back in Basingstoke this week. Thought we might try a different venue for a change. Its a park which lies between the A33, Popley Way and Shakespeare Rd. Turn into Shakespeare Road from Popley Way and its the first turning on the left.

12-3ish, £1 for subs. We should definitely have the club cars this week. Their will be a small charge to use the club cars, just to cover fuel and spares, probably just a few pounds.

I have spoken to Steve, and he is happy to bring down the canopy again, just in case we have to suffer rainy showers again. A rope track will be laid and we might even still have a BBQ if we can get away with it.

Any objections to the venue or other ideas just let me know.

Hope to see you all there.

Good call, who is bringing the BBQ. Shall I go get a portable one - it's not like it won't be used again, after all the BB has become a bit of a ritual (even in the drivin' rain).

OK, after reading the recent posts and seeing the video posted on facebook, why don't we have a bit of fun and try some drag racing this weekend (new engines need not apply - so make sure they are all well run in). Lets have some ideas for rules etc - could be a bit of a laugh eh?

1st up: each match up has to be best of three?

LOL the only way I could win a "drag" race is to bring a bungee rope and devize a quick release mechanism for the overtake right at the end as my car doesnt start at the moment

I will be stopping by to spectate with the missus and my daughter and to collect a glostick from mark that I left behind today lol
