You've got as much as me - nowt! Didn't get anything for the last adventure to Oulton Park either. Who knows with the post these days? But I'm ever hopeful. See you there one way or another.

Me neither but no panic, we'll be fine.

Could well be a postage thing, are there still hold-ups in the network somewhere?

doesn't really matter if the tickets come or not.
the guys and gals on the gates know of the problems we face
turn up in tango and they'll allow you in to sign on

well see you there !!!

I realise that, but would like to know the official sign on time and as IO I like to see how many names are down (when list provided) just to know what to expect numbers wise on the day.

And joy of joys, theyre at it again on or around the 22nd October.

I may have to pull out due to illness anyhoo. Had the lurgy now for over 2 weeks and cant seem to shift it.

See how I feel tomorrow before I make a decision.

Sign-on's 7:30 to 8:00 for an 8:30 start.

Looking at the numbers your biggest problem is going to be where to put them all - two & a half columns of incident marshals on the list.

Gordon Knight · 14 Oct 2009, 15:55 (Ref:2561380)

Since this meeting is headlined by the Fun Cup I thought I'd have some fun before
we start. I'm not pre-allocating flag points this week. Flaggies can choose their
own post on first come first served basis....so get there early !!!
Regards
Gordon

Wish I hadn't looked now, that's ruined my fun for when I get home, darn it.

SRPhoto · 14 Oct 2009, 16:52 (Ref:2561421)

Got mine now also.

Can't believe the number of marshals for the Fun Cup meeting, wonder if we will have enough to take it in turns to stand someone down during the Fun Cup race?

30min Sign on window (Good luck Nadine)

Like how the XR's are before lunch and grid walk, someone expecting trouble

KayBee · 14 Oct 2009, 19:28 (Ref:2561507)

I can't believe that it's the last Oulton one of this season - where has the time gone?

Looking forward to seeing everyone on Saturday.

WE don't do silly questions, only I do.

A grid walk is where all the cars are lined up on the grid in position and the grid girls do their stuff

and the press do their stuff. All very glam eh.

Now all that you need is to hope that you get posted nearby. In my opinion, Marshals are most definitely needed around and in the grid-walk.

Adds to the glamour too.

Normally the same as a pit walkabout for Joe Public, but on the grid rather than in the pitlane.

Hiya gang,

Is there any chance somebody might have a spare ticket for this that they could leave at the left booth for me? I don't think mine will arrive before I set off for the track now.

Would a pint for a bloke or a fruit-based drink for the ladies at the Northern Hotpot supper be of any persuasion.
