retro rides the gathering should be a no brainer for rtoc boys.

Set on a hill climb, great bunch of people, great camping.. cheap as chips.. . its a no brainer.


Where as on the other hand fast show = usual dismal weather with terible track action, freezing cold camping and lots of chavvy *******s to admire your dreamy r5 motor.

[BluntyR5GTT]

agree with everything dj says above happy birthday as well fella

[djinuk]

hehe cheers dude.. another year , cheaper insurance woohooo the joys

[BluntyR5GTT]

[BluntyR5GTT]

[Romil Davda]

A couple of things I had in the pipeline:

• Shakespeare Raceway. Same as Santa Pod but assumed this would be less busy
• Rolling Road day @ Futruremotorsports in Leicester - Dont want to clash with Blunty's Noble day, hence not booking anything. Need the numbers for this too!

I was going to post up the Ace Cafe meets for the year, we can always "bump" them closer to the time.

I also wanted to get some track days up for this year and some POD days too. BUT this will be becuase I want to go and will see how many peeps follow/attend, there are a handful of guys on RTOC that will show up and put on a show!

[BluntyR5GTT]

another thing id like to do is set up a big rtoc rolling road event again at scoffs place (efi-parts) for august/september time ?

[chris]

I went to the gathering last year and it was a good day out. This year ill be camping as that's where all the fun is. I've spoken to the founder tonight and I'm seeing if there's space left for a stand. If people wanted to go to the gathering, how many would be interested in camping and would anyone want there car on a stand?

Ross

A couple of things I had in the pipeline:

• Shakespeare Raceway. Same as Santa Pod but assumed this would be less busy

no need to assume, always quieter than pod. i used to pay £30 at pod for 3 runs, i pay £25 at shakespeare and usually lay down 20+ runs and still have to time to sit and watch

[Slammed 66]

[/LIST]no need to assume, always quieter than pod. i used to pay £30 at pod for 3 runs, i pay £25 at shakespeare and usually lay down 20+ runs and still have to time to sit and watch

Only been to shakey once and I won't be rushing back. It was for the viva outlaws drag day last year and I only managed 3 runs in a whole day! Kept letting bikes through in front of us and it was a real dive. Personally I think York is better.
