Right, we've kicked the ball about long enough...are we going to enter the Birkett???

The entry is £950 with teams of between 4-6cars so thats £237.50p per car for four cars, £190 for 5 cars, £158.33p for six cars.

All can you add to the roll call please.

you do need to loose the novice cross first, which depending if brands is a double header and you finish all rounds is possible

Even if it isn't, Mark has 2 signatures now, finishes at Mallory, Brands and Oulton would leave him needing a day's marshalling to get the 6th.

You can also get a signature from doing a one day course at Silverstone - I had to do this to get my National A in time for my Tuscan debut

Right the roll call so far...

Iain - Chimaera 4l
Graham - Tuscan 5l
Kevan - Turbo Taz 2l
Cliff - Turbo Taz 2.9l
Howard - Tasmin 2.9l

Those who have expressed an interest
Marc, will be getting a decision tonight
Mark, depends on signatures
George, heard nothing since the weekend.

There is a maximum of 6 cars, however, I'm happy to drop out and just be "team manager" if we get two more definates!

I need your best Sillystone National lap time and also the correct engine capacity of your cars. Once the number of cars is decided I'll need a cheque off each of you payable to 750MC. I can enter with just this info, and the detailed entry can be done at any time before 2nd October so I'll collar you all at Mallory.

Iain

Great idea, Gents. I love watching the Birkett and this gives me a great excuse for a bit of late-season PH flag waving! I'll look forward to it...
