I'm just processing the orders of the folks who bought today.

There seem to be a few missing from recent requests?

Last call for tickets.

I'll be buying the last set tomorrow am.

Anyone not bought by then has missed the deadline.

Ian S

That's that, all tickets purchased.

Stand passes are processed separately by Pod. I ordered them but no response. Maybe they'll all turn up together, probably not, so, if need be, I'll mail the passes to R5MJH or Alex to be collected at the event.

81 tickets sold.

About 53 car passes so far.

Apologies that it's late but a friend want a a ticket for camping and both days at pod

I know I don't get members discount but I just want a ticket for him. Is it too late?

If so, how else can it be purchased?

R5MJH
12-06-2015, 13:49
maybe online at pod still if not on the gate liam

A friend wants a ticket for camping and both days at pod?If only you'd said that yesterday morning.

They arrived today and I've sent all the weekend tickets out. I didn't buy spares.

Then just waiting for passes for the last few.

As Mick says, on-line from Pod is the way now. This could be the place: https://www.eticketing.co.uk/santapodraceway/default.aspx

We do have two Sunday tickets though.

LiamR
12-06-2015, 22:06

Ian S
13-06-2015, 23:19
One of those tickets just sold.

I've re-listed one members together with one non members. But there's just the one left. Unless I sell my own ticket as well.

Is there a spare ticket for Sunday? I'd like to go to this..

Ian S
15-06-2015, 00:23
You just missed it. Sold a couple of hours before your post.

I think you might be too late to buy in advance from Pod now too. But you can buy at the gate.

Hoolio
15-06-2015, 06:42
Again I have left it too late and the weekend did not pan out as expected so am not going to make this. I have a Sunday ticket and pass available. please pm me.

R5MJH
16-06-2015, 00:05

Ian S
16-06-2015, 13:10

R5MJH

Pod says:

"Passes must be completed and displayed on arrival with the coloured side facing outward so it can be seen by security.

The registration number must match the vehicle it's in."

R5MJH
16-06-2015, 14:24
thats what they say but in principle all they do is see a coloured pass and let you through lol, but yes please fill them in guys

That leaves 4 available from Mick at this moment.

ok guys we got PFC's best photographer coming on sunday to feature robs car, hes also going to be sniffing round the others, he will interview rob about his car and someone about the rtoc:laugh:

ive not been on here long enough so maybe someone else there? or probably ian

GTphil
19-06-2015, 19:23
I'm all packed and ready. Should be arriving around 1pm tomorrow all being well. Won't be able to make the North West convoy but hey ho. Just hope I can get some track time in before it shuts. :)

Ian S
19-06-2015, 21:56
probably ianI won't be going. Drove the car on the dual carriageway yesterday and and at least one front wheel is too bent to go at much more than 55mph. I think it's those damned hillocks they put in the middle of the roads. The Fiat is to narrow to straddle them and the 13" wheels with the no profile tyres can't withstand the repeated impact. I've had them hammered out a couple of times and changed them a couple of times for round ones and here we are again; bent. :crap: Don't often go that fast around here, just follow the traffic to locals shops, etc, or on lanes. Car's not up to motorway use.

R5MJH
19-06-2015, 22:15
this is a real pity ian anyone near ilford central east london on sunday morning???

New poster! (less than 10 posts)

Hiya guys. Will there be any stalls for parts for sale for the 5 gt. I've never been before so just wondering ? I desperately need 2 speed line wheels to get these nasty wheels off :eek:

B18ftMOJO5
20-06-2015, 00:41

yup there must be someone coming to pod from london or the south:confused: come on lads:)

have a good day guys if anyone can film any 5s running ill add to the video edit cheers

R5MJH
20-06-2015, 12:21
whats it like there today guys?

GTphil
20-06-2015, 13:07
Not a great start for me, I'm currently stuck on the M6 waiting for the AA, car just died on me, noticed when I was cranking I couldn't hear the fuel pump. Bridged the wires in the relay and the pump ran but still wouldn't start. There was definitely fuel at the carb. So then checked for spark and that's my problem. I think it's the tdc lead. Will get the AA to run a continuity test and see. If anybody has a spare tdc and king lead they wouldn't mind bringing to pod that would be ace. Will update further when I know what's actually wrong. Just hope I manage to make it.

R5MJH
20-06-2015, 22:55
remember sunday guys pfc magazine are there and they are featuring robbie and rtoc so please make the photographer matt very welcome:agree:

Jeff Ninebar

R5MJH
21-06-2015, 21:23
just got back in after a 1hr delay cause traffic was bad:cry:, id firstly like to say thanx for everyone who attended the pod 1st ND day, well ive never seen so many cars parked on the stand, robbies car performed great all day i think 10.384 sec was the fastest his car ran faultless, a personal best too and btw rob and aud great seeing yas again:agree:

also great to put loads of faces to names and again some great people of the clan that ive not had the pleasure of meeting before mainly alex, gtphil, lee, mojo and many others

there wasnt any show n shine in the end as there wasnt any interest which left time for people to do what they wanted, a massive thanx to matt the PFC photographer who took some excellent group photos

ian could you pm me some history of RTOC as they will want it for a cover story..
ill let you write it up, :laugh::laugh:

nice to see the new jet car do a 5.1 lol too:D

all in all i highly recommend doing this next year please comment on this guys before i lock this thread, also today the camera i normally use i couldnt find so please can anyone with vids only whatsapp me em ill pm my mob if you need it, Bad bit of the day james broke down just befor home but hopefully nothing major, ill upload vid when clips are in and ive had to convert it

A lot of requests to join the RTOC facebook page came in the evening.

Must have made a good impression :)

22-06-2015, 04:22
top day had a great laugh, met loads of people and i think the skips made up the most of any other cars there lol. Shame the car decided not to play ball and died on me during all three attempts, even more thanks to the many many people who towed me on the day lmao. Finally sorted it after everyone had gone turned out to be water leaked on to the coil lead:sad2:

Good to meet everyone and put faces to names. :agree: the red 1971 detamoso pantera was my favorite of the day.:agree::agree::)

22-06-2015, 09:19
I rocked up pretty late and couldn't believe how many cars were on the stand. I ended up parked over by a fence :laugh:

It was great to have a chat with a few old faces, I didn't catch most people this time round.

I'm inspired to use and mess around with the 5 again now :)

Cracking day, lots of very nice cars all looking very clean and well looked after. Jet car was immense! couple of pics, there's more on the RTOC facebook page. Nice transit snuck in the group shot!:D

Have to admit was a great day dissapointed I could not run please the car made it to the event in (can't say it made it all the way home but it made 90% of the journey back).

I am just uploading some pic's and videos to my photobucket, doesn't really take into account just how many RTOC car's were on the stand. Next year we should get a couple of big flags and a fence banner aswell, lots of interest from peeps on the car's and some good runs :agree:

I had an awesome weekend even it was a little AA themed :laugh: Thanks to everyone who's helped organise the day and everyone who turned up. �� And everyone who helped me with parts and what not.

For anyone who didn't go you missed a cracking show and an awesome rtoc turn out. The amount of awesome cars that turned up was amazing. Best show I have ever attended for sure :agree:

We had a fantastic 1st time as a newbie. Was feeling it on Sunday.Great turn out and good to put some names to faces. :) definatly going again next year this time hopefully a low loader wont be required to get us there and back he says! But i was determined to get there this year with the 5. Amazing to see everyone muck in when it was required to help fix peoples cars brillant club spirit and hospitality :agree:

Thank you for an awesome time.

Here are a couple of photos, more to follow.

As mentioned by most a good day out and was good to put some names to faces. The 5 was good aswell. Although I had 0 boost there or back. On the way up I only had part throttle because I'd clamped up the throttle cable without a rubber piece in between the cable and clamp. Thanks Logg for the fix.

So I assumed the 0 boost was because of the lack of throttle. But no on the way home again 0 boost😕 I in my wisdom put the actuator on and put the circlip on over a year ago and then meant too adjust the nuts to the right place to get my desired psi but obviously forgot. I no what a 1.4 non turbo feels like now 😂

A marvellous turn out for the club - I had an ace weekend. I arrived around 11am ish on the Saturday and just about managed to get the tend and gazebo up before it started raining - glad I brought that gazebo.

We all piled in the gazebo and had food and beer while it was raining, some great banter and laughs going on!

Phil turning up on the AA truch was a gem, even better that he manged to beat his PB with a bub 13 second pass........... and was then (eventually) towed home again having cracked a liner. He took it on good spirits though!

Really nice to meet some new faces including the committee guys who I've never met before. Also really nice to catch up with some old friends.

It was the first time I've been to the Retro Show (and the first time I've been to Pod in 10 years) but I'd most definitely go again, I loved the huge variety of cars.

Roll on next year! :):agree::cool:

Had a great weekend as always though sadly I wasn't able to bring the cup car due to a slipping clutch on my van.

Here's a short vid from Santa pod of the event with some clips of our stand.
