Does any member wish to display their car at this event on SATURDAY?
Please send basic details (model/REG?contact details) so we have an idea of numbers.
I'll put up a plain black Gazebo (like club one but no logos) so if it rains we will have shelter but bring chairs if you have them.

So far we have:

1986 944 LUX
1998 944 Turbo S
1995 928 GTS

Preston Park is in Eaglescliffe near Yarm North East England so a bit far for the Central region I would think.

Hi again David,

What Sean (the Ninja) and Simon are referring too are Central region being prevented from using their BBQ at a recent event because it was a potential fire risk..... Hence the Fire Engine Rally crack.

Dave

I did not know you were coming and had no replies back so I pulled out at the last minute.
How was the ground? My brother and I were concerned after yesterdays rain. We were up till 11 putting the seats back in the Lux.

Hi Guys,

:(
Apologies to anyone that was looking for me.
Since nobody had confirmed I cancelled at the last minute and thought it was too late to post on the forum.

But many will be like me and have to wait till the last minute, before they know if they can attend or wait to see what the weather is like.

Its never too late to post. You should have posted as soon as you decided not to go.

Think about it, next time you post that you are attending an event. how many will remember that you did not turn up at this one and say well he never showed at that one will he at this!

If I say I am going to attend an event then unless its a national emergency I would go go. I might be one my own but I would be there
