Will there be a few camping on the Saturday night?
Im at Roar for the rolling road then have a BnB booked near Shakey for an early start on the Sunday.
Just wondering if it might be more fun to camp with some fellow tivvers.

Hi Derek

I'm sure hoping so! I'm wanting to have the Vango up Friday night ready for an early start Saturday; I hope there may be others along Friday night too. I'm awaiting a reply from SCRW on one or two matters and as soon as I have that then I'll update this thread. Time's drawing near and I need to get a shimmy-on.

Make sure you come over and talk.

Update

1. For those travelling for on-site Friday night camping (me) then the gates open at 6pm. As far as I'm aware, this is only available for those purchasing a weekend ticket. I'll get back to SCRW if there are those attending Saturday only but have a long journey and wanna camp.
2. Beer and BBQ's are o.k, open fires are not.
3. There is an on-site bar which is open Saturday night until late (you can spout your 18 second, sub-80 mph excuses here).
4. There are Toilets and Showers for the cleanly.
5. Pay on entry. Admission: £12/£22 (Day/Weekend) per Spectator. £20/£35 per Competitor; there's paperwork to be signed on entry and the issue of scrutineering passes and wrist-bands. I'm sure there will be mechanism for stating your 'Gredge Match' association so the SCRW can keep track of/promulgate our Camp progress.
6. If you have video recording gear (bullet-cams etc (me)) then bring it and grab some footage. This of course will need to get through scrutineering so it must be secure (Gaffa tape/Ty-wraps etc).
7. If you're bringing fuel cans; make sure you're sensible about their stowage and handling; if you have fire-extinguishing equipment then bring that too.
8. There are prizes (very small), one of which I've bought (and you can drink), the other I have made (and will look good in the attic)
9. I'm still intending to get something raised for the Area Air Ambulance. The simplest thing for me to do is bring a 'Tin' along; if you wanna put something in it (like money) then do so. I won't be chasing anyone up if they're not inclined.

Stuff Competitors WILL Need To Bring

1. An approved helmet.
2. Gloves + clothes that cover your arms and legs if you're driving open-topped.
3. Your driving licence. (If you or your car are looking like a 'shed' then you may also be asked for proof of insurance and a MOT cert'.
4. A dry car; if it's depositing fluids then it wll be pulled and precious race time will be wasted with strip clean-up.

There's just a couple of free weekends now before this goes ahead so if you're definately not gonna be there then remove your name from the current list. SCRW need numbers a week in advance so that they can allocate us a suitably sized pitch. However, I don't want to discourage those that decide to come along and join us on-the-day.

And as said previously: I hope we'll be annexed alongside Big Rob Pack and his bunch from the TVRCC Cotswold Three Counties for a Top TVR Tear-up.

And I don't wanna be blamed if I've missed anything so peruse this: http://www.shakespearecountyraceway.com/rwyb.asp

and

Oh Lord in Heaven . . . Give us the Weather!

Im now thinking of coming down Friday night and camping. Get a few test runs in on Saturday morning then nipping over to the rolling road session at Roar in the afternoon and back in time for bbq n beer at the tent ahead of Sundays racing with the C3C region.
All dependant on the weather i think.

Hi Rob

Fingers crossed for a similar amount spread over the whole weekend, we'll see. I'll be up there Friday night; it takes me a day to get the tent up.

Hope you've got the Sag back on song; got some running issues myself but I'll still try to get a couple of passes in before relegating myself to some filming.

Weather lookin' promising . . . . . . Oops!

Yeah, its all sorted, after taking the exhaust apart and other issues with no sucess, tracked it at castle combe and spoke to neil garner (tvr guru)we found that the accelerator cable had streached and trumpets only opening about 1/2 inch.

thanks for you help at the growl

Cheers Rob

As I changed from a Griff to a Chim Recently I have taken myself off. Unless Chims are allowed and someone can lend me a Lid.
