So what's it going to be? If there's enough interest from the other side of the water i may show up
do you think my mate will pospone his wedding so i can make the full weekend?
Before september please,
Just so i dont have to tax and Mot the car
big bummer to land fcs and nats day on the same day, so much that id even say if thats the case hit mallory up again >?
Cool, just thought i'd mention it, in case people double book!
I will be at RTOC ND
Just looking at the proposed date that will rule 9 of us northern regulars out cause we will be in spa f1 then nurburg... Ill check back see if date gets confirmed
Sorry forget that I read it as 27/8/13 ... So July is a winner
Hotel deposit paid for us lot,hopefully car finished as well
Sounds good,I'm in.
I will be coming as long as it doesn't conflict with other shows. Hopefully my gordini will want to play ball this year and actually start lol
Any ideas on costings for this so people can budget?
Same day as fcs is a bit of a fail
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.

I'll be in Ibiza! Haha. Sweet
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?
Well im a definate for camping/tracktime
I would of thought most members would attend the national day over a generic show anytime?
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.
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.
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.
You can please some of the people some of the time, all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time, but you can never please all of the people all of the time.
I as always will attend National day as i have for the last ten years,i won,t be in a Renault but a Evo if its finished in time,if im classed as a chav or not welcome due to a jap car fine but sounds like attendance may be down also after last year are Dawn and Adam coming?
This will be my first national day as i couldnt do last year i cant wait i have just been to autosport at the nec the rs owners club was there mx5 owners club gtr owners club it was an amazeing day so why cant our club go there i think the quality of cars in this club could mix it up with any club i really think that
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
