Is there anyone out there that would like to race in the Euros this year in Turin, Italy? I do have a place but for money reasons I cant afford to go now. Would anyone be able to take my place? All you need is a BRCA membership and you can go. You dont even have to do any Regionals or Nationals. Please let me know if you would be interested. Thanks.

Have you managed to sort anything out yet Stu? I'm sure there will be someone out there who would love to go to Italy.
Hope you get it sorted soon.

Hi Stu,
Don't want to be a pain but I've got exactly the same problem as you so if anybody out there is thinking of doing the Euro's then there are potentially 2 places available not just woody's
3 I have a place in 4wd, but not going now.

booooo how come guys? We're going over on the thursday to get all settled (find the maccies) and get the laptops up and running / find internet access so we can do a nice little report :)
I`ll be there, im not sure how many members of the dance team will be there though.
Maybe we could have some european honourary dance team members:confused:

To go to Euros or to join the oople danceteam? :lol:
Not cheap to go to the Euros. The entry fee is quite pricey if you're doing both classes, you also need a EFRA license. the flights I think cost 300 or so for the both of us from Manchester. The hotel costs a bit but some people are camping there (at the track) if you fancy that madness.

Might be best not to put this email address in a public forum - maybe PM interested parties directly with the address?

just working out prices id love to go but the price i just cant aford as i recon be over 1000 quid how much is the camping at track side
lol shane... i think everyone would want to go if it wasnt so expensive:thumbsup:
1000! jeez. lol i just been to lanzarote for a week with my dad and it only cost about £1000 for us 2. surely its not that expensive? is it?
jimmy
01-04-2008, 11:14 PM
1000 for lanzarote? you could go to Italy and race toy cars for that! :thumbsup:
Our flights are 300 for two of us return from manchester - hotel?? not sure.. car hire ? not sure.. but going on previous missions I guess 200 for car hire and 350 for hotel? stick it all together with race and efra fees and its a grand for 2 people and we get to play with toys as well!
disclaimer: my maths is probably wrong and I made up most of the prices off the top of my head :lol:
lol went to lanzarote, hired bicycles and jet skiid for tht!
jimmy
01-04-2008, 11:26 PM
cool, so almost half as good as racing toy cars then! still, not bad! ;)
twas ace! apart from i lost my glasses somewhere in the ocean. some fish will be able to see now!
still was amazin
Im not going to sit on the fence on this one, the euro`s will either be better or worse than lanzarote:thumbsup:
Lanzarote is like italy but without the euros:lol:

For me and Big Geoffo, we paid £140 each for flights out of Gatwick on the Saturday, then like Jimmy said Hotel normally £300/400 for the week, Car £200, General Beer/food money prob £300. EFRA license is £50, then you gotta whack tyres on top of that etc.
£1000 easy I would say, prob abit more.
Well worth it tho!
Si
What dates are people flying out and back again? and where from, we might as well be on the same flight, will anyone be getting a People carrier/mini bus thing? i dont mind hopping in and paying my share of course.

There is a group of us booked going out on the Friday from Gatwick then back on the Sunday - £180 return for two!
Like Jimmy, would be nice to have a few days before the meeting begins...

I'll be doing some 'o0ple EUROS' tshirts for anyone who's going and wants one. I've done them for US for for the last couple of Euros but thought someone else might be interested. Design and other details to be confirmed but if you want to register your interest PM vicky (mrs oople)
I might consider adding sponsors and / or driver names at a reasonable cost - but it depends on interest and time.
This is in no way to replace your BRCA tshirt that I beleive comes as part of buying an EFRA license and is to be worn on opening ceremony day :)
