devon kev · 19 Jul 2007, 11:56 (Ref:1967365)

With BARC having meetings at both major circuits

Just curious to see who's going where and why.

For me its Thruxton; because I adore truck racing & radicals

Robin_D · 19 Jul 2007, 12:21 (Ref:1967386)

Silverstone,

It's my home circuit and there is Leg-ends

danccooke · 19 Jul 2007, 14:33 (Ref:1967507)

Thruxton - Trucks, Am also on call Saturday and Sunday night so i need to be able to get home rather rapidly at close of play both night. am on call at 1900hrs, hmmm it's gonna be a rapid drive home.

sputnik421 · 19 Jul 2007, 15:17 (Ref:1967564)

I'm at Thruxton to but as I'm a wagon driver thats where I should be. So Dan are you letting De stay with us on her own, if so Sneetly an I can keep her company. We are going up tomorrow with are 4 man tent, will try to get close to the marshals gate.

danccooke · 19 Jul 2007, 15:34 (Ref:1967580)

Nah we are gonna trundle each way each day, otherwise i am towing the caravan and driving each day, loads of petrol

sputnik421 · 19 Jul 2007, 15:53 (Ref:1967599)

Ah so Dee gets a comfy bed and you get to be exhausted, I hope you manage to get some sleep mate.

gachjoel · 19 Jul 2007, 17:03 (Ref:1967642)

Thruxton for me,The Wife & a New Marshal
Cant beat Trucks hammering round a circuit.
Bi & Enduro`s can be quite entertaining aswell.
Hoping to get the BIG WELSH FLAG out this week,
it`s only about the size of the caravan(Weather Permitting)

Circuitmarshal · 19 Jul 2007, 17:28 (Ref:1967654)

Dan's wife Dee is also a marshal they work as a pair, if you've not worked with them it would be hard to know. Dee is the other marshal in Dan's avitar.

i will keep an eye out for them.

Don't challenge Dan to have a beer, I doubt you will ever recover

wasn`t a challenge,that`s why i said a beer.

now if you said vodka

danccooke · 19 Jul 2007, 19:38 (Ref:1967767)

Sadly i will be driving so no beer for me, On Call which sucks but least it was a thruxton meet so i can still play and work, any where else it would have been to far to run home each night, I will also have Mark in the car with me, my cousin we normally work all together (used to be five of us but one retired and one not been too well this last year) Mark will have his boy with him but he is not old enough to be on the bank yet so will be spectating. So three Marshals in our car.
I feel i am earning a bad reputation on the alcohol front. It is all unfounded, it just all seems to evaporate quickly in the awning of the caravan thats all. I find vodka disapears even quicker

Scary thing is i can't put faces to all the user ID's we really must have been noisy the last few meets.

Huge Wales flag, something to wipe our feet on if it gets muddy.....
{cue abuse}

gachjoel · 19 Jul 2007, 19:50 (Ref:1967774)

Dan

pop over for a coke then.

dont worry ,i have the same problem with vodka in the caravan,
i think its just a thing alchol does at race circuits.

Cue abuse,no not me
never

on a thread

in person,
well thats a different story

so just where was this flag when we needed it???? ie, Startline at Gurston??

If it's that big then we could have all stayed dry!!!

Look forward to seeing it if you're down for the Nationals in August.

gachjoel · 19 Jul 2007, 20:21 (Ref:1967796)

Stuart,
didn`t have it then.
that weeknd prompted us to buy a caravan a week later.
the flag would have covered startline easily.
not down in aug,
got a date with Thruxton and the F3/GT`s.

Steve Tarrant · 19 Jul 2007, 21:02 (Ref:1967828)

Me's doing the truck at Thruxton this weekend. It's my local circuit, so have to be loyal.

Also, Fangdoc and Skiprat will be there too, but not planning to stay overnight this time. A nice warm bed isn't far away!!!!!!!

Stu, see you and Jo at the Nationals. Just bring some better weather with you. I'm fed up with wet meetings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mark Mitchell · 19 Jul 2007, 21:40 (Ref:1967844)

Silverstone - flagging - both days.
