Haye Park Rally Photo Meet - jan 22nd 2011

[Hamish Gill]

I though id make this a bit more official and try and find out who exactly is interested?
I think it could be a good day out, if we are going to do this lets get planning it earlier rather than later...
so yeah, lets find out who's interested and we can see if we can work out the logistics of it shall we?

 

[Darren Turner]

I believe Alistair maybe Leading the way & showing us the ropes............!!
( if hes up for it )

Count Me In For Defo..........!!

 

[Hamish Gill]

Barry, me and the missis will be there, maybe Greg too ...
Alistair can you help arrange a place to meet etc ... And let us know any potential costs etc?

 

[Alastair Cummins]

You mean Alastair

If I remember rightly it cost around 5-£10 per car to get in so I will try and find a spot where we could leave a couple cars and split the cost of entry.

The event website is here http://www.ludlowcastlemotorclub.com/index.php/events/gravel-sprint

And the event is located around here though I will get a more acurate location in the next few days http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&s...4215,-2.738278&spn=0.011011,0.033023&t=h&z=16

 

[Darren Turner]

just added your name to my spell checker......haha.....( sorry )

sounds good that Alastair to me........!!

 

[Alastair Cummins]

Good man!

I so hope this beast is going to be there, everyone should get to see, or rather hear it before its banned in 2012

[Darren Turner]

errrrrrrrrrr what beast...........

 

[Alastair Cummins]

Can you not see the video?

 

[Darren Turner]

nope...........!!

 

[Glen Roberts]

I can see it alright.
Sounds nice, why is it getting banned in 2012???

 

[Darren Turner]

i can see it this morning.........lol How strange..........., nice sounding motor eh

 

[Alastair Cummins]

The noise is amazing, you can hear it for ages!

Its being banned though because the MSA isnt too keen on home built cars any more and wants more production based vehicles. The only thing from a 306 in that video is the rear lights, the rest is part Subaru, Cosworth and ice racing chassis lol.

 

[Alastair Cummins]

very small update to say that the entry list is now a third full with a fair few people still intending to enter

[Darren Turner]

[Hamish Gill]

well, i have just made sure im not working that day, but as im not working and the manager at the shop is also off for his birthday, barry cant come either ... ... ...

whens the following close rally Alistair ... it'd be a shame to miss this one but if people cant come it would be more of a shame if the first RPF meet was a flop!!

 

[Darren Turner]

you guys are gonna be sooooooo jealous of my 200 out of focus blurred shots, while i was getting cold, wet, hungry & thirsty in middle of a forest in middle of nowhere .............. lol

 

[Hamish Gill]

im not ruling out getting cold wet and thirsty and taking crap photos just yet mate
