ok i should have emailed everyone, i cant find any emails from the following people


Shelbyrip
Marcon Tony - VXR
VXR Dan VXR8
Jelevents Monaro VXR
Bonnie and Clyde - VXR8
Howling Mad Merdock[might have had a respray by them]
Jhinchy - Ute

If you can get back to me by tomorrow morning then i will post them out otherwise you can collect them at the gate. As ive been very busy over the weekend all tickets will be posted out first thing in the morning first class signed for, so you should have them by Friday at the very latest.

As an over view for everyone, it has been advised that all cars are parked up by 8am on the Sunday.

We have parking on T2, which going by lasts years plan is the very large tarmac section in the middle. I cant find this years plan so will request one.

The cost if you haven't already received my email is £14 for a stand pass and 1 adult ticket, additional pre booked adult tickets are £14, under 14's go free with a paying adult.

I will email everyone my mobile phone number in case there are any issues

thank you and see you all on Sunday if i dont see you before then

The guys above need to sort themselves out - Post haste!!!!

GSD is too much of a Gentleman to mention that he has forward booked and paid for these tickets with his own money! If the above don't cough, then he is going to be out of pocket by a couple and therefore won't be helping out in future.

I do however thing that Jelevents totaled his on the A1.
you are correct on Jelevents
You are correct I don't know why I still have him on my list as he told me a while ago.

I will correct this

I just wanted to thank everyone for turning up today.

I was nice to meet a few new faces and some old ones

The weather was great and santa pod were very quick at getting cars through

Again thanks to those that attended, Kevin the main man at Future Publishing who arranged everything came over to say that he really liked the display

I was impressed with gareths son he went from 17 seconds to 13.5 in the ute, street tyres no burnout first time at Santa pod, never done any 1/4 mile runs before.

I was beating him until his last run when he destroyed my time by over half a second

Would there not be an official "times for the day?"
There wasn't any planed shootout do I didn't get any slips but if everyone just posts up their fastest time that should do
