as in the other thread i'll be there, driving in support mode in my uber reliable spitfire just in case the vette breaks down. lol!

[renny]

I'm part of the Scrutineering Team at Doune that weekend, so would like the chance to meet some of you in person (although I probably know some of you, but don't know you by your forum names). If you see me come and introduce yourselves. I'll be the one with a radio earpiece in, and can usually be found at the paddock exit area near the burger van

Don't forget there is practice on the Saturday as well.

[VetteG]

Renny,
Cant make practice I'm afraid, I only get home on Friday night after 5 weeks away. MrsG would not sign the pass for 2 days at Doune!!
I'll come by on sunday though. Is it a full entry?

G

[renny]

Usually don't know about the entry list unil the middle of the week of the event. I think the Championship has been decided, but the lower places are still up for grabs. Also heard that Greame Wight jnr will not have the engine of the Predator built up in time as he is still waiting for parts.

[Gizmo1314]

I'll be there (trying to avoid the trees this time) assuming nothing breaks on the Car at Golspie.

Sure the trees will be very glad to hear it!

First time in a long time when no Broomstick of any description will be present - off for well deserved recuperation in Ferrari land!

[VetteG]

And the Trees are pretty big these days!

Anybody got a forecast for next Sunday yet, planning to bring the vette and I dont fancy mud plugging it through the field!

G

[john185k]

All week looks fantastic, thats why I am going to Gran Canaria tonight where it is pissing it down, typical

[renny]

Just found out the entry list is almost 100 entrants so a good turn out.

See you there!

[VetteG]

Oh excellent! I havent been up for a few years so I'm looking forward to it. I'll look you out if I get the chance Renny.

G

[ApexJimi]

Vette, are you taking the errr 'Vette?!

[VetteG]

Yup will be in the Vette watch out for it in the car park or get Fraser M or Bill W to point me out if you want a look, youngest son is bringing his Spitfire and my mate from Aberdeen will bring err one of his!. Not sure how the car park works these days, (or the paddock from seeeing some recent photo's) but I dare say I'll find out!

G

[alicrozier]

I'll be in the lunchtime convoy up the hill.
Lots of other Loti and Caterham.

[rossybee]

Yup, I was there in June this year, the car park seems to be the first field on your right as you enter the access road. The same field is used for camping - which we'll be doing!

Graham, I'll keep my eyes peeled for the 'Vette, for anyone who's on a mission to find any PH'ers, I'll be wearing a plain black Ferrari baseball cap, and the chances are the guy with me will be wearing a pair of shorts - I kid thee not!
