Good morning
As far as I can see it is a thursday and I do not know if it is the official
or restricted opening for press etc.
No probs for a week-end, as Dorothy is working during the week.
Have a nice sunny wintery day

Hallo to all

here is the link where you can see the "circuit", I think it is mainly for
go-karting, seems a bit "Mickey-Mouse", as Switzerland is very tight on
circuit-racing.
The content of the exhibitions seems to be much more interesting ;-)

Sunny regards out of the snow

Hallo,
No problems :-))
I'll ask for a personal guide for us to look round, but we would have to agree on a date.
As I am in Germany for the moment, will do it a bit later.

Regards from a snowy day in Bavaria

Hallo Swiss Pistonheads

Today I intended to driver to the place, but weather is a bit wet overhere, so I phoned the people:
Result:

1)
We need to be a group of around 10 - 15 heads for an individual tour around, English seems to be not a problem :-)

2)
We need to fix a date, they have open days, but you have to register, see here:

http://www.autobau.ch/eng/events/our-events/?anm=o...

The chap on the phone was friendly, so contact is done and it is over to us to discuss further action.

Regards, Rainer and Dot

(30th May would not be possible for me, as I am on holiday in Normandy till around the 20th June '09)driving

Good evening

How many we would be on May 9?
If I do the booking I think I would need the full names, hopefully we are
at least ten of us. I can speak to the chap again if needed.

Gilly & Andrew: no problem, Dot and I can organize something on an other
date.

Regards to all

@ brem: Danke :-), nice to know that there are so many TVR's in CH...

@ all:

So, if we agree for May,9, I gather the following Pistonheads could attend:

- smilerbaker: 3
- JMGS4: 1-2(?)
- abels 1-2(?)
- chandrew 1-2(?)
- rainerm@dot 2

Total: 8 more or less fix,whose wife,girl-friend,kids would like to come?

Total price is CHF 250.-- which I am prepared to pay in advance, but only if there are
enough PH's joining.

Kindly note, that there is only one fixed tour on the 9th planned for single persons,I am
sure we could arrange something directly maybe a bit earlier that day or on a parallel
base in English.



Re: meeting point: Dot and I are hopefully doing a little hooning in the Engadin early
evening of April 30, May 1 is a holiday in Germany, therefore Dot and I could do
some sniffing around Romanshorn-Amriswil.

Thank you for your efforts.:-)

Rainer

Hi there,
new list:

So, if we agree for May,9, I gather the following Pistonheads could attend:

- smilerbaker: 3
- JMGS4: 1-2(?)
- abels: 1
- chandrew 2+ 1
- rainerm@dot 2

total until now: around 9 inc. 2 children, that makes really seven adults upto now.

Some more interested? Should I post our Swiss link into the German pistonheads forum
or shall we keep it "national" i.e. CH onlyidea
