D1GP june 18th

[Nicely]

Im thinking of a flat plate say 100mm wide which we can run a car wheels onto, with an upright post about 1-1.2m tall to slide the banner over. We would need three due to the size of the banner.

How are we going to get a car wheel on the middle post?

Feel free to video-tape the event or take lots and lots of pics :wave:

I'll have my Kodak with me - can video and take pics but it's not a Canon EOS so don't expect the world!

Anybody making a start earlier than 7.15am (which will be everyone except Topper and I ) - I salute you :notworthy:

[sushiming]

I will meet meddy at junction 15A services kieran u could meet us there??? around 7.45am? anyone else will meet there??

 

[MIHIR AMIN]

im coming on the m40 i think i have to come off at junction 10 and head onto the a43 to get to silverstone, just name a time and a place if someone is on a similar route and we can meet up. cheers

350z coming next friday

 

[Nicely]

Mihir, you may as well meet us at Banbury.

Correctamundo.... we'll take the either the A422 from Banbury until it meets the A43. We can meet you just off Junc11 no problem.

Obviously times have not been confirmed yet but here's the best place to meet...

From the M40 slip at J11, take 1st Left from the roundabout toward Banbury town centre. Stay in the left lane as you approach another roundabout and take the slip road Left there too.

On the next road you'll see an Esso garage on your Left. We'll meet you in there mate. :thumbs:

Time now confirmed as 7:15....

Kimi, Mihir, 7.15am just off Junc 11 M40 (Banbury) as above.

Kieren - Anti clockwise I guess you meet the M1 sooner than the M40 so go up the M1 and meet up with Meddy & Sushiming (as suggested) @ 7.45am.

 

[Topper]

I'm so happy i dont need to get up overly early like some of you :nod:, will make a change as i'm normally the farthest from any meet :wave:

 

[Nicely]

Yeah, but we've all got the previous day travel-free...

We elect you as Chief Bug Washer-Offer for all those who have to drive 100 miles or more...

 

[Topper]

Deal ............ as long as you polish them after :wave:

:EDIT: A you added the Travel bit, make sence now.

Same as the others. Im guessing we will have a row of cars. So we just drive the cars on to the bases. Then slide the banner (Which is gonna be huge) onto the posts. Only downside of this is it will hide the front of our cars. We could just sit something heavy (like Topper ) on the bases, or if we are on the grass then just use stakes.

EDIT: Or I guess we could lay it across three windscreens. I dont know?

 

[Topper]

.......... We could just sit something heavy (like Topper )......

:wave:

 

[sushiming]

I think windscreens would be better i guess then it won't hide the cars then what u think...i think we will be parked in the car park inside not on grass

 

[MIHIR AMIN]

Cheers nicely see you lot at banbury at 7:15

 

[sushiming]

I now have all tickets and pass now just to confirm with u guys so u know iam not cheating u hehe :wave:

 

[Jono]

Great! What news on the banner?

 

[Nicely]

The banner isn't a problem. The mounting posts/poles are...

 

[Topper]

Ming, have you got your tickets?? i havent :no:
