Will definately be going.
Just round the corner, used to work here as a host and stayed on overtime to help host the SLS GT5 competition for PH a few years ago.
Perhaps you remember me Garlick?

Possibly a silly question and I haven't read or understood something that I should have. Or is it as simple as, I turn up. Man on gate says "Who are you" I tell him my name and number on list. He checks list and says "Your names down, you can come in." Job jobbed?

You know if you are in the 600 by checking what number is next to your name here: http://www.pistonheads.com/calendar/event.asp?i=30...If you are within the 600 we'll have a note of your username on the gate, we'll ask for this when you arrive and after a quick check you'll be in.

Ta very much. I thought it would probably be quite straightforward.

Love MBW, and I know it gets full so I'll sit this one out and let someone have the slot I would have taken. If I feel the urge to turn up I'll park in the plebs car park.

First one I will have been to, but have been to MB world before, worth going just to dribble over the CLK GTR and E190 EVO!! Number 337 next to the name so I guess that means we're in, happy days! 1330 race mini on Yoko semi slicks if its dry, Prodrive Impreza if raining!
