Retro meet & drive Peterborough

[humbucker]

"OK Diner". Classic. I stayed at the "Quality Hotel" last week. It was wibblepoo. At least they tried to give the impression that it was worth checking out though!

"Been to that diner on the A1? What did you think of it?"
"It was OK."

Exactly.

(See you there!)

johnjoe85 any movement on this meet, my diary is filling fast with dates of stuff to do

[johnjoe85]

Hey guys, yes there have been a few developments, I know this was originally a meet, but it's potentially balooning into something a bit better...

Update on East Midlands RC meet. We've had an offer from 'The Rock' (Rockingham Speedway) to host an Autotest and static meet. There are also 30 minute track sessions available at an additional cost. At present this event would cost £30 per car (as many mates as you can fit in is fine!)

Please let me know who fancies this and I can get it booked. JJ

Oh lordy it gets better!

Might only have my Puma track car to bring along though

[bluffin]

Sounds great, any idea of dates?

[johnjoe85]

Dates are flexible as it needs to coincide with a trackday at the circuit, we get the paddock area to ourselves though for the autotest and display areas. Should be a laugh and everyone can have a go at something either the £30 meet and autotest or £60 for Autotest and track session. Hope the cost doesn't put people off though, it's non-profit so all the £30 per car does is pay for the organising and marshaling.

[johnjoe85]

Oh and of course you can turn up in a mates car to split the cost and spectating costs nothing!

[johnjoe85]

March 15th, put it in your diaries gents! Please pop over to our Facebook page to sign-up. Should be a good day!

Why no 750i

[Bolf]

Because they are really slow. LOL

This is a tuned 740i engines got some goodies and its also got a clutch pedal , which completely changes the dynamic of the car.

So you have to pay £30 to show your own car?

Please book your place on our Autosolo at Rockingham asap as we need to confirm numbers. This is a totally not-for-profit event and is the cheapest way to have a laugh with your car and enjoy some timed motorsport. Please pay the £30 and come and have some fun with us next Saturday, if we get a decent enough turnout Rockingham have agreed to let us run events on a regular basis!

[johnjoe85]

Tdk, no you can come along for free and park up the car on display, but if you want to get involved with the Autosolo or track sessions, they are £30 per car. Thanks, JJ.
