DTM,s at end of month

haystacks · 13 Aug 2008, 13:54 (Ref:2268481)

Just recieved my passes and itinerary. Very quick of MSVR, I think I will probably end up losing my passes.

Bibs · 13 Aug 2008, 14:27 (Ref:2268496)

I can only attend on the Friday and Sunday, would they want me there for that? It would only be the 2nd time I've been on the bank too, do higher profile events want more experienced Marshals?

Bodysnatcher · 13 Aug 2008, 15:34 (Ref:2268532)

We can't give a definative answer here - you'll have to go to Mildred.

btw Haystacks I lost my WTCC sticker - it just did'nt stick. But at least we had our own guys on the gate for WTCC. I would imagine it'll be tricky explaining it to DTM's guards.

and
have we all seen that David Scott has written agreement to 2 per post for the Saturday taxi guff at the end of the day. Volunteers will be bribed, sorry rewarded in the usual manner.

Speak to Mildred Wiltshire. Her email is bhmarshals(at)msvracing.com (replace (at) with @)

Bibs · 13 Aug 2008, 16:24 (Ref:2268559)

Ta, I'll pop Mildred an email

Stick the sticker to your pass, and put it in the pocket of your overalls

Wish I could rip myself in half, would love to be there but Silverstone appeals even more that weekend for me....

Bryan Degerlund · 13 Aug 2008, 18:19 (Ref:2268618)

I hope everybody has noted Saturday sign-on time -- 6:30 -- 7:15 -- to allow for DMSB system and safety- and R-car checks (8:15 -- 8:35), on-post at 7:45, track inspection at 8:00. Apparently DMSB wanted a much earlier on-post/inspection time, but Dave Scott managed to make them see sense, as with the taxi rides.

mini1400 · 13 Aug 2008, 19:57 (Ref:2268669)

Stickers stuck on passes, passes in kit bag.... Will be down sometime on the Thursday afternoon.
How early on Saturday, hopefully Hailwoods will be ready with the food!
And yes Bodysnatcher, I've been bribed again

Suckers!!!!!
I'm not jealous, honest!
At least you get double pay at that time of the morning, or is it still night!!!

Bodysnatcher · 14 Aug 2008, 08:42 (Ref:2268874)

Saturday, see you all at 07:14 and 59 seconds, Bev will be just behind me.

Please Herr S, can posts 4a and 10 be excused the safety car stuff as we have no flags or safety car boards?
On post 08:45 perhaps?
No?
Then we'll be sleeping soundly as your boys do their thing. (and they wanted earlier!)

Ho hum, just as well then that those of us not required to supervise playtime at the end will be off to the bar at 1700.

I've volunteered - it's almost minimum wage! (guestimating at breakfast at £5). No real need to be in bar an hour earlier, and fancy a fry up on race day!

haystacks · 14 Aug 2008, 14:58 (Ref:2269077)

When was the last time breakfast was £5 at Brands. It,s £6 now so thats over minimum rate.

Pebbles whats on at Silverstone that weekend to keep you away from here.

haystacks · 14 Aug 2008, 15:04 (Ref:2269080)

Pebbles,Sorry i forgot, you,ve still got to say bye to everybody from the F1GP.

BSA Susie · 15 Aug 2008, 11:44 (Ref:2269569)

I'll be there, working til midnight on Thursday so may drive up straight after that and kip in the car or drive up at silly o'clock in the morning.
And for the taxi rides too, I appreciate the brekkie!

And Lewis Hamilton is going to Brands.......

adstubbs · 16 Aug 2008, 17:34 (Ref:2270177)

Well, I've done DTM for the last two years, and had decided some time ago not to do it this year for various reasons (oh alright - taxi rides and the interminably long F3 races, plus REM at Twickenham), have to say I think that Saturday sign on time is a mickey take of the highest order - on post 1h 15 mins before practice starts? Madness, and designed to annoy people.

could have been worse

**BertMk2** · 18 Aug 2008, 13:49 (Ref:2270957)

Is there a timetable for all 3 days available anywhere?

Edit: Found it:

https://tickets.motorsportvision.co....atch%20DTM.pdf

Last time I checked the MSV site it wasn't up.

deadsquirrel · 18 Aug 2008, 13:56 (Ref:2270958)

Can anyone tell me if there's electric hookup on the marshals campsite for this event? Accessible outside drinking water taps?

Thanks!

Stack · 18 Aug 2008, 14:53 (Ref:2270987)

I don't think there are hookups DS but there was a portable shower unit last year.
