It's only going to be a few quid for entry and camping at National day if you aren't going on track and only 50 miles to Corby from there .

Back in the day rtoc stands were to be found at most big car shows in the u.k but as with all things club has moved towards track days.

No reason why the club can't have a presence there and at other events .
More people need to step up and shout out about such things :agree:
If there is an event members feel we should attend then there really is nothing stopping it apart from the will to do so .
It doesn't have to have to be committee led all the time ,area reps and members need only show willing and take it on :)

the above is ture mate:agree:.But that said people joinen clubs to take advantage of there being people in place within the structure of the club whos job it is to orgonize such things.Thats why you have a committee:)

Yes , true but then the CM's can't be at/arrange every event and are not mind readers .
I think the area reps can help out on this front a bit more ,especially if the event is in their region .
If they liaise with Big S, I'm sure the committee will sort out the booking of space etc but will need members on the day to set it all up :agree:
