Wow David, nobody will ever say that Region 18 members aren't spoiled for choice, what a fantastic list of events. Let's hope the weather stays nice for them all! Dealing with the first one on the list - RS day at Oulton Park - a few of us are heading over together on Friday morning. If anybody would like to join us, myself, Dean, Jeremy and hopefully Jamie will be departing Charnock Richard services at 10am. This is usually a great day out.

 

[vitesse]

Sadly can't now make it,but very happily will be going up to my Daughters' to help & play with my 2 lovely grandsons as our son -in-law is working both nights at the RVI[&o][]

 

[rob.kellock]

Bring them along, they'll love it!

 

[vitesse]

Bit of a long way from Morpeth[:-]

 

[rob.kellock]

Early start will do them good []

 

[robfin]

Rob, do you go M56 off at A49 or down M6 to the A556? I would like to meet if possible. Regards

 

[rob.kellock]

We generally go M6 down to the A556 unless there is a known traffic problem. We'll be easy to spot at Charnock Richard with our red white and blue theme - 964, Spyder and 997 turbo.

 

[robfin]

Hopefully I will catch you at the M6/A556....or at the circuit.

 

[rob.kellock]

Ok, we'll look out for you. See you later

Any R18's thinking of doing Hartech visit on saturday?

 

[gm997_1]

Sadly can't make it myself, Zeb, even though virtually on my doorstep, as I'm not even in the county (down in Norfolk in fact, first race of the season, Snetterton). But have been to Hartech 3 or 4 times before and Barry always has an excellent array of kit. Well worth a visit!

 

[zeb]

What you racing then Graeme?

 

[gm997_1]

Ha, against the clock, I think, mate [] Enjoy Heartache, oops Hartech (always got good stuff in there, that's why!), always do v. appealing engine upgrades.

 

[Rocket Man]

Count me in for Gawsworth Hall. I have been there before, there is a good turn out of classic cars.

 

[Rocket Man]

How can i get on the list and get a pass for the classic car show at tatton park?

 

[Rubber_Man]

R18 are not having a presence at Tatton, but I think R5 are, so perhaps contact Allan Crosby direct for info

 

[jehhamilton]

How do I manage to be included for the visit to Jasmine?

 

[Fred Hindle]

Contact David and he will add you to the list. Cheers,

you'll need to pass the secret initiation process.....it involves a tub of industrial grease, some nettles and a packet of eccles cakes [] on the other hand....you could just ring David []
