To quote "slim shady "

Will the real Andy Bond please stand up?

^Well actually in past years most of the numbers seem to have been made up of more modern RSport, I think there may be a better mix this year though it would always be good to see more of the classics.
Can you get tickets on the day? As my bro has now decided he wants to take his mrs. Plus side is that im now going in the gtt
I dont think you can Andy ...
No. Your best bet is to sign up over on Renaultsport as there are often peeps giving away spare/unwanted tixs.
Right thanks for that lads ill let my bro know now. Can they still be had off the world series site?
sorted thanks to a fellow rtoc member :)
im now attending this in my gt turbo so i was wondering if i could get onto the rtoc stand ??
also big steve mentioned maybe being able get into the gala still on sat night id love to do this now, quick question to you steve are you camping or staying at a hotel ?
The only chance of getting infield/display parking now would be to try to get in touch with Stephen Dell over on the RenaultAlpine site.
Edit. Just checked on RSport and it looks like that list is definitive "If you are not on this list, you will not get a pass"
oh well nevermind :(
is there any chance of getting gala tickets
so then guys whos parking in the collectors area ? i now have my pass for it so ill see you there
Ill be in the collectors area , making all your cars look FG
So will my mate Dean.
I will be in collectors area but in a Clio r27 but will be around the fives both days :):
Turncoat! :cooter:Quote:

No pointing and laughing tho alright ?
i love it when a plan comes together:smokin:
I just had a random neighbour who I haven't met knock on the door offering me two tickets for this weekend because he saw the GTT's on the drive. Something had come up and he couldn't go.
It would seem there are some nice people left in the world :)
Well I spent most of the day sorting the 5 so should be there tomorrow not sure about Sunday. Andy you can park next to me if you want ;)

Millie & I had a brilliant day yesterday thanks to the weather being mostly good! :niceone:
As always the Gala Dinner was a great night!! :beer:
We took a few pictures of the day:

The Collectors area was not slap bang in the centre of the action this year. It was decided to position it a little bit away from the masses due to the complaint people were having about the hoards mauling the cars. The area had hard standing which was nice but felt a little removed from the goings on? I'd be pleased to hear other people's thoughts?? :)
The most obvious choice right from the start of the day for best in show was this simply stunning Black 5 Turbo (Not sure if it was a 2 or what?) with a maxi bodykit. Of course it did win the prize & the owner was chuffed to bits!

As any of you will know Kris M sure loves a good point when it comes to having his picture taken:

So that ended up being the theme of the night for the Gala Dinner:

As usual the Renault Driving GOD that is Jean Ragnotti was there & we had to laugh as he's starting to recognise us now & always says hi when he see's us!! :D So we had to continue the tradition of an RTOC Photo with him! ;)
http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/n...P1030425-1.jpg
He started to figure out what Nick Kettle's game was when it came to having the second picture taken! :crush: :laugh::laugh:
http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/n...1/P1030426.jpg
Finally we had to continue the new tradition of Robbo's Picture with Millie after last year's Gala.
http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/n...P1030430-1.jpg
He said that his preference was the Blue Dress from 2009 though so the gauntlet is laid down for 2012! :laugh: :laugh: :wasntme:

:cool:Yeh just got back had some day tickets, that black turbo 2? was very nice..
Also saw a red cup car on the way home, I was passenger in a brown/ black Peugeot 308 convertible. Sounded mint !:) Put my thumb up as u over took..
The Black 5 Turbo was a beauty though I had the misfortune(?) to be parked next to it, I may as well have not been there :) I thought the standard of all the cars was much higher than previous and the fact that we were parked a little out of the way seemed to keep away many but not all of the "less interested" ;)
Cracking weekend, top pics Steve :)....Wrighty, yeah that was me in the cup car on the way home :)
I have had that car as my wallpaper on the computer for many of years think I took my one back in 2005, changed the wheels, put the sun strip on plus the red mesh but still looks awesome :cool:Quote:

Hi folks.
Great to put a few faces to usernames.
Sunday was mental busy and the pawing of cars too place. The chap who had the Maxi Turbo nearly passed out several times in frustration as people touched and tapped his pride and joy. I felt sorry for the chap !
