How about meeting at the first services on the M62? Hartshead Moor is it??

If we are going to get to Stockport pre-9am I would suggest that we want to be at the services about 08:55am?

Seriously, about 07:45 to give us time when we get lost in London!!

Guys, this ins't looking good. I'm going to contact Prosport on Monday. They said the min was 15. Finaly update on Monday afternoon. I'll be gutted if we have to cancel because of numbers.

You'll not believe the begging mail I've just sent to another club... Time for a brandy

Will they not do it with less than 15?
Its the credit crunch they should take all they can get!!

I'll be gutted if this doesn't happen, come on guys get your name down/confirmed.

P.S. have the ppl who have not confirmed been contacted?

Agree... surely it is just the minimum hire amount that is important...?! As long as we met this figure can't see an issue...

Getting there! Only 5 more to go

I'm contacting Prosport today to see what they are prepared to do with respect to the low numbers. Final decision will be posted this afternoon.

Just spoke to Prosport. 15 is the absolute minimum. We have a deadline of 10am on Wednesday to get at least another 5 confirmed runners otherwise the event will be cancelled.

I have text Presa.

Come on people!

Good luck in getting the numbers. If we dont get enough numbers by Wednesday I will make alternative plans for this weekend as im due down in MK in the afternoon then silverstone on the sunday. Will give me a chance to set off earlier thats all.

Cheers

I was sort of hoping everyone might try and get the numbers? You know, ask a friend, mention it on a forum you use.

Why 15?

Why not just a minimum hire amount?

I'm sure a minimum hire amount would be fine. Having said that I doubt paying more will be ok with everyone and it just gets messy.

Last thing you want is a bunch of Focus ST's turning up mate, you know how Ford owners are

At this rate nobody will be turning up. Currently the conclusion of this event is set to CANCELLED unless something dramatic happens between now and 10am tomorrow.

i think we should meet on general principal on their car park just to annoy them if they refuse 9 or 10 of us lol

Why would that annoy them?

Why would you want to annoy them?

I think it is just simple business sums that means the event can't go ahead with only 10 cars.

Oh NO, I was looking forward to this

We only need 4 more!

Come on people ask around!

WR1Bro no joy with SMACS? There's 3 SMACS unconfirmed on the list, there members are more likely to come being in the area.

I've run out of steam to be honest mate... SMACS had a rolling road a few weeks back...

The other problem is that even if we get 15 runners you can be pretty sure at least 1 will drop out at the last min.

Ah damn, if the SMACS had a rolling road a few weeks back, then there not gonna be interested

Maybe re-schedule for next month or so, if we don't make the numbers up by tomorrow?

I've asked a mate, see what he says. That might be 1, need others to ask there friends...

The other fairly local group are LADS and they have a RR booked for the weekend after us. Historically we have always managed the numbers for a RR quite easily. If/when (10am tomorrow) that his one falls on its arse it will be over to someone else to arrange a RR.

I've arrange two successfull RR in the past and I've fail on the 3rd. This was gonna be my first RR without a hangover too.

How many people would mind paying an extra £15ish??

I'm not so bothered about the money side, I'm looking forward to just putting faces to names as much as the actual RR.

I think it would be unfair for some people to pay more then others, or to even ask people to pay more. As much as I hate to see this event get cancelled, it looks like it will.

I agreed it would be good to put faces to names; hence why we'll have to re-arrange this to take place in the next month or so.

I'll probably volunteer myself to organise this for next time.

Your probably right... lets hope you get out of the good side of bed tomorrow ...

PS. Focus ST guys are on a run on 21st a big multi forum meet thats going to be in fast ford magazine so no one is showing any interest in this. The last RR was at Dreamscience HQ in Hull and had around 50 people show up so its a shame that these events clash .
