I should be there, but as I'm a BRDC marshal I don't need any tickets cos I've got my season pass. I'd have thought they'd be here early this week though if you do need them!

If you don't get them ring up the BRDCMC and they should be able to send you the tickets or arrange to have them on the gate for you!
I've not done this meeting before, but everything i've heard about it makes it sound good, hope to see you there!! |

Got my passes via 750MC and they arrived on Friday. Sign on is 7:30-8:15am. No breakfast voucher this year but I understand that something is being organised. Also heard that the entry was well oversubscribed - everything from Bentleys to Radicals. Unless all the cars in a team retire there will be 42 finishers (and >200 drivers out in practice) - on the club circuit!

Yes it is a 6 hour long sleep, opps sorry i meant race .
Which sounds bad but in reality it's a team race where if someone falls off or has a problem his team mate can enter the race and continue, the up shot is that if 40 teams start then 40 team usually finish. BUT it also leads to a fun practice session, as they ALL go out together, which means assuming 3 cars per team and 40 teams up to 120 cars on the circuit.... Seriously though it is usually a great race, loads wheel to wheel racing throughout. (of course I have now jinxed it). As for tickets, the post in northampton is still pretty lousey after the fire at the main sorting office, but if still don't have anything by tomorrow give Pam Dearn a ring at the BRDC. |

Great to meet you Mary2 and Marsha the cat. Unfortunately the BOB's did not see the point of our friends. Hope to see you next year - maybe at Donington training (fire training their speciality!)

I went to this meeting and had a fab time. The racing was brilliant and the company great! Thanks especially to the 'luvli' driver who very nearly ran me over in the pit lane and didn't even stop to see if I was okay. 750MC are great and I intend to see more of you next year!

Hi Andrew, it was great to meet with other 10/10thers including Marshal & Reba. As for the BOB's you can't win them all.

I know about the BOB thing as most marshals that know me know I was one. The I saw the light and came back from the dark side.
