    I was hoping to organise a run to Santa Pod with an overnight stay

    Can you hang fire with this one?

    I am just trying to get a few old members (who havent been on for a bit) to see if they can make the date I have in mind?

    Hi dave, just make it avon with an overnight stay, less chavs and better track time than at santa, sure you can find another cheap travel lodge with bar for the night, how about racing on the sat then hotel and on the piss that night?, no hangover before racing !

    I am happy to go to either and if there is a nice hotel nearby to Avon then sure. I like Avon park. It is cheap and not usually as busy.

    I still think it best to have the hotel do the night before. The whole point being that it gives peeps a chance to get there.

    I thought you were kidding and took the pi$$ accordingly. Sorry mate

    $od the value- she's worth alot to you as my V70 is to me. Disposable doesn't enter into it at all.

    I'll prob just get a manual (for the strip) or do the swap on mine as I love it to bits!

    I really dont mind, as long as theres lots of us, the more the merrier to be honest. The last time we did a big meet was at Avon, i think VPC took 22 cars that day, some of the VOC were there and others aswell. We took over one side of the paddock lol.

    I will leave it upto wobbles as he started the ball rolling
