HI Guys,

I thought it was time to update you all on TV coverage for 2010.
At this moment in time, JR is still "working on it" in terms of finding a sponsor(s) to fund the filming- BUT, Time is running out.

I have a pending set of slots on Motors TV- but we are slowly losing them, the longer things are left. As it stands now- the earliest any first program could go out is June !!

Do drivers still want TV?
Is anyone interested in co-sponsoring?

IF so- PLEASE contact John Reid NOW, before it is too late.

Cheers


Andy

can we not have a drivers tv sponsorship deal, or at least a drivers help towards it, it was great to see tvr's on tv last year surely no one wants to lose this excellent coverage.
does anyone know the money needed and what it would split down to if we all chipped in. i think tv coverage is a high priority for the future of the series.
regards
tim.

Unfortuntaley I cannot disclose figures on a public forum- but JR knows what is required.

What is the situation for Cadwell- are there many entries yet?

Also- A reminder- the Season Review DVDs are now available on our WebShop smile

I'll send everyone an email over the weekend about sponsoring rounds.

Have a think and see if you know of anyone who has a business and an interest in TVRs and may be able to sponsor a round. Vat receipted for media advertising.

I know most people are going to help contribute some money for this, but is there any agreement to start the coverage, i.e. was the Cadwell race filmed, and is the Snett. Race going to be cover.

Cadwell wasnt filmed, there didnt seem much point with the low entry.

AMG will be at Snetterton and filming, and all the other rounds as long as all the funds are forthcomming. every little Helps as they say

We're voicing the Snetterton programme later. Unfortunately with the website not being updated, there's not a great deal of current information out there - so if anyone wants to post any driver and car profiles/points info/details of their Snetterton weekend please do; in the meantime I will trawl the forum.

Sorry - try i.m.sowman at virginmedia.com

Regarding cheques, I would love to say send them to me - but perhaps Andy (amgtv) is better placed to answer this.

Yes tim is sorting all the funding of the TV and all contributions welcome, so drop him a line.

Yes Brands is being filmed.

HI Guys- Yes TIM is co-ordinating everything, so any payments should initially go to him.
See you all at the weekend at Brands

right you orrible lot!! it is seriously time to dig deep for the tv coverage money that i spoke to you all about!
snetterton did not go too well for me personaly and i found myself without any time to socialise and ask for the money that has been pledged,
i am working my B*LL*CKS off trying to get coverage for the whole season
and am slowly losing the will to live! i desperately need the money at brands to enable the tv coverage to continue after brands, i need everyone to bring their cheque books or cash to me on sunday to save me having to visit everyone individually, this has to be a joint effort or we are going to fail.
even the intermarque guys are coffing up some money on sunday to help out with the tv, some of the drivers from last year who are not even racing this year have promised me some money as they have the foresight to see that tv coverage will build our series for them to compete in next year, so please make the effort on sunday as i am not good at begging!
thanks
