Well volunteered Maybe we should make you wear a hi-vis jacket again

But seriously, it might take a few mods to get 38 cars lined up nicely. It looks like the plot is fairly square so we've got a chance to do whatever we like. Maybe a classic/newage split with unique cars in the middle (BRZ, couple of legacys etc). We'll work it out when we get there i'm sure.

However, when we all get in, please be patient whilst we get cars moved into the right place. Don't park up and abandon your car as we may need it shuffled!

As I'm probably the only red one I don't like this idea lol

Don't want to be sat on my own

Who's bringing the step ladder this year for the group photo?

[Scott.T]

I think your wasting your time trying to 'arrange' 38 cars in that spot by colour/model/special, just too many to even think about an arrangement, IMHO, and it's not a massive area to play with.

The best you could do is have a front line that follows the grass line/verge then do whatever fits behind. Manybe and inverse arc of the front line at the back, then infill with whatevers left and the Gazeebo.

Not me, the gazebo only just fits in the car as it is!

Yeah, a line up by colour would be way too much effort with so many cars. We do need to keep it simple, whether thats a newage/classic split or just decide which cars we want on the front row, and then the rest fill in behind. Gazebo somewhere in the middle and flags at the front at either end of the front row....

The Kent guys are bringing another gazebo to put at the back for extra shelter if we need it and there's space(if it rains the SES gazebo won't help with so many people!). Its signed up as the old Kent Scoobies but they have a generic Subaru banner to hang over the old club logo.

[Scott.T]

Looking at this image, it looks very small for 38. Especially when you look at the other cars in the photo.
Using those other cars as a size guide I reckon we only have room for 8 along the front row, before we encroach on the adjacent group (our area doesn't go as far at the tree).

Would we be able to run cars up the other side of that access road, to the left of the proposed location ?

I think we'll be alright if we park close together. I've just copied/pasted the white car from the bottom corner of the map image (check out my Paint Shop Pro skills ) and fitted 38 cars in with space to spare in the middle:



The grass on the other side of the road is inaccessible as I'm sure it has a low wooden fence round the edge.

[Rodregos]

Looks very good lay out and good job on photo job Steve

[lacky3pl]

[Bytes]

Great job with the photo Steve, but you could have made the cars different colours and at least one in red

[ScoobyStu]

No idea, it was just a guess to give some sense of scale on the plot.

Might work quite well though The advantage of something like that is that everyone is able to get out if they need to, rather than being blocked in.

Thanks. Its nice at these sort of events to do something with the car layout so it doesn't just look like a car park.

[Rodregos]

If anyone is coming from Kent way, us Kentish boys/girls are meeting at notcutts between 6.30 & 7.00am to leave at 7 to meet the main ses group at there meeting point.
