Count me in. I can't do Sun 8th or 22nd but any other time should will be fine with me. My bro will probably also be interested so put me down for two places.

Cheer

Scott


eddie99 - 23/1/09 at 06:22 PM

Ahh, Pity your so far away from me otherwise i would jump at the thought.

Seems like a real good price, Hope all who go have a great day!


macspeedy - 23/1/09 at 06:26 PM

Count me in, i can do all but the 28th.


modee - 23/1/09 at 06:50 PM

Any weekend in Feb. would be good before 750mc season starts in March. Will be putting driver on caffeine drip to bring him out of hibernation any day now. May bring Locost race car along on trailer to let you all have a look if we have the engine back in it.


SeaBass - 23/1/09 at 07:09 PM

Count me in - I may have trouble with 14th/15th or 21/22nd... Sounds like fun - I'm not exactly the Stig though!

scootz - 23/1/09 at 09:39 PM

Well make sure you're fully inoculated before traveling over the bridge!

I hope you've had yours for next weekend!


scootz - 24/1/09 at 10:49 AM

Not sure what injections I'll need for heading south of Gods Country


scootz - 24/1/09 at 10:50 AM

yes, but it will depend on the date I think....


phoenix70 - 25/1/09 at 10:08 AM

WE could asks the guys from the SKCC if they were interested. if we need a few more people


phoenix70 - 26/1/09 at 10:13 AM

Just to summarize the interest:

Merc1
Phoenix70 + 2
Macspeedy
Modee
Seabass
DavieH
Scootz
Mango + 1

Any others interested. I'm going to the SKCC meeting tonight, so may ask if there is any interest there.

Cheers

Scott


mcerd1 - 26/1/09 at 11:49 AM

I'm thinking it may have to be the 14th/15th (or maybe the 21st/22nd) so I'll phone up later to see what start times I can get and post them on here then its decision time !


This is the list as I've got it at the moment:
{moved to top}

so that's about 11 so far + a few maybes
and I've still got a couple of people to ask


Scott (Phoenix70) - I was going to ask the SKCC anyway, but I'll not be at the meeting (I've still never made it to one, and really need to remember and post my renewal )
so if you could ask tonight it would be a big help - but there may only be a few places left so its going to be a first come first served
(btw - my number /e-mail is the SKCC members list booklet thingy, but I'd rather most people posted on this thread if possible)

Scootz - I'll text Ian later once I know the times I can get

-Robert

phoenix70 - 26/1/09 at 01:15 PM

No Problem,

I will ask tonight at the meeting. 16 is the minimum number isn't it?

Please don't make it the 22nd, I really can't make it (neither can the my +2)

Cheers

Scott


scootz - 26/1/09 at 08:39 PM

Superb... let me know if you need more - there's probably another I could rope in!


phoenix70 - 27/1/09 at 04:08 PM

Mercd1

Any news on a possible date ?

Cheers

Scott

[Edited on 27/1/09 by phoenix70]


mcerd1 - 27/1/09 at 04:57 PM

Right final decision time
We can have any of the following:

Sat: 14/02/09 @ 9:00 or 12:30
Sun: 15/02/09 @ 12:30 or 15:00
Sat: 21/02/09 @ 15:30

it will be £45/head and I need to pay £360 upfront to book it (the rest on the day)


so who's all definatly going ?

which date/time do you want ? (and more importantly which can't you do)


also how are we going to work the money side of it ?

-Robert

modee - 27/1/09 at 05:51 PM

Hi. Can do any of those dates / times. Poss. do a +1 if we are short on numbers.
U2U me your address and I can drop off our money. Maurice.


mcerd1 - 27/1/09 at 06:18 PM

^^^ thanks

if anyone want to 'drop off' money (once we've sorted the numbers and date) I work just the other side of the A1 from the karts and live just down the road

but we can sort that out with u2u's later

[Edited on 27/1/09 by mcerd1]


phoenix70 - 27/1/09 at 06:39 PM

Those dates are fine with me, should be me + 2 (but I'll check with them.)

PS I assume the dates are in FEB rather than JAN

[Edited on 27/1/09 by mcerd1]


SeaBass - 29/1/09 at 08:21 AM

Those dates are fine for me. Let me know - I can drop the money in to you whenever you need it. If numbers are low I work with a couple of petrolheads who'd be interested.

Thanks
James
