Birkett 6 hour relay

f1madmatt · 26 Oct 2011, 18:54 (Ref:2977307)

Does anyone know when the tickets are being sent out for this weekend ?

Peter Harding · 26 Oct 2011, 20:19 (Ref:2977363)

Tickets went out last week - PM/email me if you have not got them and you volunteered or you just want to volunteer now. I am struggling to cover flags for the Arena circuit and could do with a few extras.

Come on folks you know it makes sense, absolutely brilliant days racing with the track always full. See you there?

I've sent you a message Peter

Nina and I will be there - but in Race mode not Marshal mode...though she is not driving herself.

We are team managers for "The Prize Guys" - team number 40 - a collection of 6 MR2 Mk1's - so shout for us.

We'll be in pit lane or garage 9B for most of the race - come and say hi.

Will be a new experience for us and a chance to see racing from a different angle again.

Tony - the breadth of knowledge and skills of the two of you is ever increasing - next stop clerks? Have fun, but I will be out at a post somewhere so won't be able to visit.

juliet · 27 Oct 2011, 13:16 (Ref:2977701)

worst comes to the worse F1madmatt i have a spare guest ticket can always leave it on the gate for you.. too cold for my lot to come and visit this time of year

They fail on 2 fronts:

1) They're too young
2) They're too good looking

To be honest, I don't think I'll have any problems getting in the gate. I've been going there 7 seasons and I've only been asked for a ticket once

chezza · 27 Oct 2011, 17:39 (Ref:2977798)

I'll be there, my last marshalling meeting of the season, looking forward to it, always a highlight at the end of the year!

I also have a couple of teams to cheer on, good luck Team Axis and the Dirty Half Dozen!

Well Nina is young(er) and good looking - I am a short fat old fart....

Gerry - realistically we know nothing about anything - I thought that was painfully obvious? We just tries our best and all that...and try and have fun....

The Birkett is an interesting one though....I am looking forward to it....

Steven Humphrey · 27 Oct 2011, 18:18 (Ref:2977826)

I'll be there but also helping/getting in the way of 'The Prize Guys'! Looking forward to it, be good to see things from another perspective.

**Woolley** · 27 Oct 2011, 22:14 (Ref:2977947)

I've managed to negotiate an extra pass out (well, actually arranged a lift for Mrs Woolley so I can meet her where we're going later) so I'll be there as long as I can get in.

Peter, you have a PM.

Previous meetings I've been able to leave my spare at the ticket office before you get to the gate, so I imagine that's possible?

f1madmatt · 28 Oct 2011, 07:51 (Ref:2978045)

Can anyone tell me the sign on time , just in case my tickets don't arrive in the post today

juliet · 28 Oct 2011, 08:29 (Ref:2978058)

in the email from penny:

Couple bits for the 750 meeting this weekend don’t forget sign on is slightly earlier 7.15 to 8am as the meeting will begin at 8.30am and finish early.

Bag will be in the office out of the way

f1madmatt · 28 Oct 2011, 18:52 (Ref:2978330)

My ticket has turned up , so I'm coming out to play tommorow

The Fat Clerk · 29 Oct 2011, 18:37 (Ref:2978666)

What a thoroughly enjoyable day, met lots of old friends who I hadn't seen for a while, had the best Observers box on the circuit - Maggotts where you can see the best part of half the circuit. 61 cars + Syd started although with a staller near the front a smash was inevitable I suppose and after the red flag, only 54 + Syd took the restart properly with the other 9 joining from the Pit Lane. Roll on next years.
