Anyone else thinking of going to this?

If you want to add to my list:

Deanobeano Saturday and Sunday. Saturday night at Holiday Inn Crick

[sydown]

I'll be there on Sunday with my E46 and my mates E9 CSL.

Do you guys want to park together on the club stand?

We are starting to look at the layout and plans for the stand area and have had requests from some forums to park up together, which is fine, but we could do with knowing how many cars you will be bringing so that we can allocate appropriate space.

Also, we would like you to "self organise" once in your allocated area, we don't want to be constantly marshaling cars on the stand and so expect each forum area "look after itself".

If you could let me know approx how many cars you'll be expecting, on the main day - Saturday, by the 6th June (nothing binding, just want to get an idea) that would be great.

Cheers.

Well my tickets have come through for this and I wondered who else from the Register was coming.

Are you planning to meet up (early) at the Holiday Inn Hotel for the cruise in on Saturday?

[Jimbo]

My plan is to get to the holiday inn hotel at 7.15 for the drive in

[deanobeano]

Jimbo, looks like you will be shitting the bed earlier than me ! (leaving from Stafford). 7.15 ish was my eta for the hotel. Look forward to meeting up with you.

[JohnnyCecotto]

I'm coming down too- from the frozen North!! Keep the coffee hot- I'll need it!

[deanobeano]

Me and the Mrs should be at the holiday inn for 7:20 ish.

Looking to drive to Silverstone in the convoy as I have been thoroughly confused by all the different gate entrances mentioned in the BMW club emails.

[SNP749]

I'm going too, but plan on going straight to the circuit on Sat morning. I look forward to meeting you guys :-)

[deanobeano]

Well Guys, it was good to meet up with you all.

Nice to see a few CSL's all together also - 5 in total.

Had a great day on the Saturday, but boy was it hot!

Anyone else have fun on the M1 afterwards with the thunderstorm?

[Jimbo]

Yeah the M1 was interesting, could have done with a canoe!

I cant believe how fast people drive in those conditions, esp the 4x4 drivers who think they are immune from aquaplaning!

When it cleared a bit i was happily sat doing an indicated 85mph (thats about 79 on sat nav), plenty fast enough for a wet road with the wipers on, looked to the right, and i was being overtaken by a young girl in an old shape ford KA! These are the people who need speed awareness courses!

grrr.
