had my tickets so long they are going sepia.This is a no politics event(as the attendees list will show couple of potential surprises on there)The offer is on the lounge,let's hope it is taken in the spirit it is intended,there are some jolly nice fellows in the OFF and I'm sure if it fits in with the calender,some may see it for what it is,a good chance to get some prepped track time at a good price,with other like minded individuals.......we will have an attitude bucket at the gate, just pop it in there on the way in and pick it up on the way out on sunday night.....what could be simpler

Now enough popcorn......... get booking people

RE: Race cars, yes, provided they fit in with the stated requirements (type1/3 based, aircooled engines) it would be nice to see a few along. The reality is that not many will be coming along anyway, as there is a whole calendar of race events already.

RE: OUtlaws, there is an invite on the lounge, and the hope is from all involved in pulling the day together is that they take it up.

I did discuss this with Dazzer , and he did tell me you guys had a busy month , but we went with May as the probability of good weather is better than the date in June we had in mind .

If it rains most of June weekends like it did last year , we could be sat round for a month , so make the best of May I say .

If the event is successful , we'll do another one at the end of the year in August at the York ACE Bank Holiday meeting , as that's a good long weekend too .

Jamie ( Kaferboy ) , checked with the Met Office , and statistically it's been dryer in May over the last few years .

Fingers crossed anyway .

I checked it out for jamie on the following site (me being sad and all!) if youre interested they do an annual trend for the weather and their confidence in it occurring...see the confidence for May 17th
