    Its a bummer that fcs tends to be on the same weekened as ours (happened 2/3 years ago), but such is life.

    We have to book venues in advance, and we dont get many dates to choose from.....

    Re: 2013 RTOC UK Festival

    I'd be tempted to go to FCS any other time but to be honest I see no attraction in saxos, Burberry hats or combat body kits so its not much of a loss really.

    Besides ND is only 20 mins away from me so its a no brainer.

    Hoping to get the blue meanie there this year too.

    If anyone is interested, I can recommend a good hotel 1/4 of a mile from my house so you'll only have the 20 min drive the next morning.

    2012 Prices, what I spent:

    £60 Ticket/Entry (includes track time) ***£10 for just entry***
    £40 Travelodge (camping this year ) ***will be cheaper the earlier you book***
    £120 + Fuel (I did come from Staines. 170miles each way plus track time)
    £40 Beer/drinks/food (for 2 people)

    I could have saved a lot by pushing my car to the event but thats no fun!

    I might have phrased the question incorrectly.

    Big Steve, what's the entry going to cost us this year? When will tickets be available?

    Yeh most likely going to be down abit... but nothing we can do. We have an agreed date, and most likely to late to change the dates now with out incuring a cost.

    i thought the committee wanted more people to join rtoc and come to our national day and how would that work when all new young Renault enthusiasts are at the French Car Show?

    its just unlucky, nothing can be done about it..... soooooooooooooo positives are should keep the chavs away?


    Should some ideas be put forward for this years ND?
    Should the ideas there be discussed ie costs/benefits and club decided rather than all on a minoritys shoulders?

    Here here - I've not been to the FCS for going on 8 years now for the above reasons. I don't know if it's still like that, but I was bored to tears looking at XXX Ice installs Brapp brappp and Ali G shizzle on Saxo's very poor. Is it still like that?

    Not that that matters of course, because I'll be with the RTOC as always.

    This is actually a very good point , and TBH - It should be that the RTOC should be mixing it up @ the FCS.

    Quite possibly but one of the last shows i went to with the 5 was the RS annual meet and tbh most of the guys there couldn't have been less interested in the "classics" that were there. I think things have changed and the real challenge is identifying were we now fit and exploiting that.
    As to the dates, it's a done deal, bickering about it is about as fruitless as it gets.

    Re: 2013 RTOC UK Festival

    To ensure we had a date for 2013 we provisionally booked the 2013 date soon after 2012.

    We have to draw a line in the sand at some point and we picked that date which now clashes with FCS (which I didn't think had much of a following from the RTOC )

    Apologies for this clash but I'm going to leave it to the members to decide where they would rather be.

    Don't be daft!

    A few questions if I may-

    1. - Do you like beer?
    2. - Do you like cars?
    3. - Do you like Beer and Cars?

    If the answer to 1 and 2 is yes, we'll assume 3 is a positive.

    It's just a weekend to get back to our man (routes / roots)?? All are welcome.

    I remember the mad evos from last year I hope they will be attending again this year? Bigger and better..

    I can't wait everyone should just get there asses there all I hope is that the weather is as good this year all members don't listen to the complaints come along and make your own minds up. Simples great fun this year I'm aiming to get my ass on that track.. No racing though
