I'll contact Clive, Charlie. We've got one pass left. If he hasn't promised it to anybody else in the meantime you'll get it. If you could be at the gate at 8 am on Sunday morning you could collect it. You only would need to buy a ticket for 15 GBP at the gate yourself. I'll be back. :)

Sorry, Clive was just mixing your name up with dogking, Stu. Dogking needed the tickets to be sent to him. You and the others would still need to collect them from him at the gate at 8 on Sunday morning. :-)

MIDLIFE 27-09-2012 09:56 AM

Looking at the weather for Sunday, white cloud, 30% chance of rain, wind 17mph sw.
Could have been a lot worse! Looking foward to this, see you all up there.:doubleup:

Sounds alright, especially when you bear in mind there's a 90% chance they've got it wrong!haha. As long as its not how it has been at times this week, ie torrential, we'll be ok. Will call you later mate to sort out meet times etc. :doubleup:

Yes, you can get the last remaining stand pass, Charlie. If you could be at the gate at 8 am on Sunday morning you could collect it from Clive (Skullfudge). You only would need to buy a ticket for 15 GBP at the gate yourself. :smile:

Cheers Kerstin, we'll do our best I'm sure ;-)

ScoobyStu 29-09-2012 08:40 PM

One of the people in my car has pulled out so got a spare entry ticket if anyone needs one. I'm meeting with others at Thurrock or if you let me know, I'll leave it at the gate for you. £10 is all I'd like for it so saves someone a fiver :-)

Always a pleasure, Stu. :smile:

Had a fantastic day, ran a 13.2 quarter mile on my first ever attempt, very pleased with that. Bit of a fluke as best I could manage after was two 13.7's, JGM and Andy Forrest can sleep easy, for now ;-) Car behaved impecibly, Midlife's company was brilliant as always, even found me a nice little hat to keep the cold out this morning :-) Bring on next year where after a few new bits (hopefully) i'll be chasing 12's (hopefully).

Me too mate brilliant day, dont forgot to mention that you were driving against quite a strong wind so high 12's are not that far away! Lots of nice jap motors up there today, my favourites was a 700bhp fwd kermit coloured honda that ran a 8.9 secs, jet car that ran a 5.7 and a well sorted turbo 205 pug that was running high 11's :drive:

Kerstin 01-10-2012 05:09 AM

Glad you had a nice day, guys. And........................did you also take any piccies? :smile:

Think launch control would help too, not really the sort of thing i want to practice too many times for fear of rather large repair bill,haha. Lots of decent cars there, thik i was a good turnout considering the uncertainty of the weather.

Got a few Vids of 3 of my runs, spent half my day queuing to go down the strip. Mazda's kept throwing their oil all over the track!!

You were still quite lucky having three runs, Stu. :nod: When Clive took me down the strip the first time two years ago, he managed only this one run on that day because they stopped it again and again due to such incidents.

Blimey that's not good. I understand they have to do it, would be seriously pi55ed if i spun out because of contaminants on the track. I managed to get all 4 of mine done. My first and fastest, wasn't recorded as my Iphone decided to revert back to camera mode at a rather critical time. Poxy thing,lol.

Sack the Iphone, Stu. :-D But seriously, feel sad for you as happened when you had your fastest run. :-( Oh well, I'm sure you'll get more chances next year. :nod:

Yes, the lads said never before it was that bad. But, as you said, it needs to be done as security comes first. Mind you, I managed two laps on that day because Clive kindly asked another guy in the queue (forest4ever), because I was to shy to ask myself, to take me along and he kindly did. :doubleup:

Yeah I will get a decent camera/recorder at some point. So much I want to get done with the scoob though!....

It was worth the wait, just a bit frustrating. An hours Queing for 13 seconds of fun! Worse than Thorpe park ;-)
