[jamboree13]

Hopefully someone will be able to say for definate :0)

[McPhee]

Nope...DEFINATELY Sat/Sun

[shark]

On my Broxtowe news letter its down as 28/29 , Sunday / Monday :confused:
Sod it , just go Saturday and stay till its finished:thumbsup:

[jamboree13]

lol - i like your thinking...

On the club champs thread below it says Sat /Sun..

Does anyone know who to contact to find out exactly...It's a way for us to travel if the days are wrong..

[Masami]

Spoke with the chairman today and can confirm its saturday / sunday, I have updated the website and facebook site accordingly.

My apologies for any inconvenience around this mis-communication.

I'm pretty sure it's Saturday and Sunday... It was last year, don't forget camping is thoroughly encouraged along with drinking even if you only live round the corner !

[The Chef]

Is it a full weekend or is it 4wd sat and 2wd sunday of vice versa? Trying to talk the wife into a weekend away;)

[aaron1974]

It's all classes (2wd, 4wd & SC) over both days, open practice on Saturday then 3 rounds of qualifiers, three more qualifiers on Sunday and then 2 or 3 finals depending on numbers I think ?

[brooky]

sat sun . 3 rounds sat from 3ish and 3 on sunday followed with 3 finals for all (depeneds on numbers turning up) i will try and put a time for gates open soon .:thumbsup:campers welcome ,and as aaron quoeted 2wd 4wd and sc and if enough turn up on road

[Adam F]

Would it be ok to miss out the Saturday and just do the qualifiers/finals on the Sunday? (2 or 4wd)

Cant get a weekend pass unfortunately... :thumbdown:

[aaron1974]

Yep it's 3 from 6 qualifiers... so you'll just have to count all 3 from Sunday and hope you don't make too many mistakes :(.

[The Chef]

Nearly got a weekend pass:) Is there a travel lodge or premier inn? Some where clean and cheap with disabled access? And close?:thumbsup:

Does any one have a post code?

[The Chef]

Anyone? A little local knowledge would be great. Thank you please:)

[The Chef]

Thank you.

[The Chef]

How many people are you expecting next weekend?

[dbizzle5]

No idea on numbers yet as were not having pre booking but ive had a lot of people pm me saying there coming from other areas aswell as our local club members so reckon it should be around 50 to 60 but thats a pure estimate!

[The Chef]

What is the average level of driver that you expect? I would class myself as a little better than Novice will that be acceptable for the weekend? I assume that there will be a range of abilities?

[shark]

You,ll be fine mate , no worries .

Theres a massive range of abilities mate. Youll be absolutly fine!:thumbsup:

[The Chef]

Will there be a shop track side? Will they carry SX3 stuff?

[dbizzle5]

No shop Im afraid however PBM racing is only a mile away and will be open on Saturday till 5pm.

[The Chef]

Ok cool I'll stock up on tyres befor I come.

:)

[The Chef]

Just booking hotel.

[dbizzle5]

sweet. where you staying? Is camping not an option?

[The Chef]

I'd we'd love to camp but my wife is disabled so camping is out of the question.

Trying to find a dog friendly hotel.

working on it.:blush:

[/tobys]

Looking forward to this :thumbsup:

Whats the race fee?

Shame the weather is looking ropey at the moment...:cry:

[dbizzle5]

Race fees are normal. £6 members or £10 for non members. Please note that as it is the Club championship trophies are awarded for the top 3 club members in the finals so if you want to be in for a shout of a trophy you will need to join the club on the day.:thumbsup:

Weather will be fine Toby, Ive just had a chat with the big man upstairs and he says he'll clear it for us.:thumbsup:

[aaron1974]

Who's camping on friday night Dan ?

[dbizzle5]

Not sure of names pal but a few have asked if they can camp Friday so we can leave the track out from Friday night which is a bonus:thumbsup:

[Robbiejuk]

I will be there this weekend :thumbsup: Now able to do both days thanks to the future mrs Jaques doing overtime on saturday.

[The Chef]

Is there racing friday night also?

[fox]

There's allways the sun hotel, right Dan?

[The Chef]

Hotel is booked, can't remember if she said linden house or the park.

oh well we'll be there. Is there any racing friday night?

[johnni boi]

Yepp, racing friday night :thumbsup::thumbsup:

[The Chef]

What time from till? Is the track lit? is it the same track as the sat/sun meet?

[dbizzle5]

Track will be down by 5.00pm maybe earlier Friday. I shall be there from 3ish. Racing starts around 6.30pm till its too dark. If your going to arrive later than that chef you can just book in when you get here and race what you can. Its all very relaxed on a friday night. Not sure if it will be the same track yet. Depends how it goes Friday nite. If people like we can keep it. If not we'll change it.

To Rob, Nice one dude! Arent they lovely when they have to work!!! lol :thumbsup:

I would say your about 15 minutes away from the track, a satnav will take you to the place fine but the entrance is set back between two houses so you can miss it easy.....when you start driving down the hill slow down and you should see it:thumbsup:

[The Chef]

This will be on the astro track wont it???

[dbizzle5]

Of course!

[The Chef]

Yay. It looks so good.

[The Chef]

Well were in nottingham. Can We share a Gazebo as I wasn't allowed to bring mine due to space.
