Put me down on the reserves list - should be able to make this and it might be hilarious to get the M5 around such a tight circuit

All up to date, and all paid.

Loads of HS2 stuff going on and around Curborough at the moment chaps, roads are filthy with stones and crap FYI.

ScoobyDoo69 · 1 Apr 2021 at 11:16

Thanks Housey. 5mph spaced out convoy it is

Housey · 1 Apr 2021 at 11:20

I often run around there and even popped in last week as I saw on Facebook there was an event there (there wasn’t of course) and it’s a rat run through to my Costa of choice too from home

We'll know where to find you if you're late then

ScoobyDoo69 · 2 Jun 2021 at 09:23

Bumping as a gentle reminder.

PS - Anyone got any decent handheld radios that we can trigger alarms from to get people on/off the track?

Just get a chequered flag and wave it at cars when its time to come off, or any flag?

ScoobyDoo69 · 2 Jun 2021 at 10:23

That would involve me carrying a flag wherever I am or relying on someone else to do it - which as we've seen in previous years doesn't work too well

Surely the simplest is a stopwatch/alarm. Throw it into the car going out onto track, when it beeps, come off!

Have a couple so that one can be with someone by the gate, ready for the outgoing car, and one can be on track, with the current driver.

ScoobyDoo69 · 2 Jun 2021 at 12:30

Nice simple suggestion, but sadly again relies on people bringing the stopwatches back etc. It's hard enough to get people to get on track some times as it's very easy to just get caught up chatting with other members (which is of course great

) but then relying on people to bring stuff back, hand over to next cars, get their car in the queue. It just won't happen and I'll spend more time playing find the stopwatch

Last few times the stop watch was not heard either so it was hard to get people on/off, so I just want to remove the reliance on those who are just there to enjoy the day and not have to "work"

So if anyone does have a walkie talkie set we can borrow for the day it'll be much appreciated

I’m guessing spectators are allowed now? As restrictions for gatherings allow up to 30 people?

Housey · 2 Jun 2021 at 20:32

I’ll bring a Housey finger wag. That’ll learn em

All being well the restrictions will be dropped by then (doubt it though).

There are driver indemnity forms that I will share next week where you can list "support crew". Basically it's all for Track and Trace, they need to know who is there and with whom.

So I'd say we'll get away with some spectators, providing they have been accounted for

Just realised I'm actually on holiday that day so definitely can't make it. Would have been nice to come, shame.
