Is this event still going ahead?

Sent off my £100 deposit a couple of weeks ago & i've not heard anything & with the event due this Sunday, was just getting a little concerned.

Hi paul, i've been trying to mail you, yes still on & I have your cheque, you are in & coming!

[W8PMC]

Craig,

Not got access to my personal email until Thursday evening, as i'm away on business this week. I'll pick up the details when i get home on Thursday.

Anything i need to be aware of in the meantime?

Cheers

Copy of mail i just sent to everyone below...

Check car over, oil levels, pressure, coolant & tyre pressures and for any stones/nails in tyres also.


!! Ok chaps & chapesses, its nearly time !!
Some final points before the day.
Please aim to be at Bruntingthorpe for 9 - 9.30am on Sunday.
We will be starting by signing disclaimers & having a safety briefing at approx 9.30
Helmets are advised but not obligatory.
This will be followed by a low speed lap of the circuit to familiarise yourselves with braking areas etc etc.

We will start the runs at around 10am. Details of pairings & marshalling etc will be given at the briefing.

You will be able to see plenty from the area we drive you to. Please could all spectators stay to the LEFT of the track when they are viewing, REMEMBER that there will be people coming back after their high speed runs and they will not be expecting you in their way.
The first 2/3 high speed runs will be driver and allocated passenger only, this is so that the drivers can get used to the track, after this point drivers can swap between cars if they wish.
Can everyone bear in mind that even in this weather it can get very cold so dress appropriately and bring something to cover you up if it rains.
There will be a burger van there for lunch.
Also drivers, you will have a chance to nip off for petrol at lunchtime, you may or may not need it.
Can all drivers who havent paid in full bring the £50 balance in cash on the day.
Also, the "mach - vmax 15000bhp" caps will be available at £10 each on the day, I have a limited supply left.
There is a map below, on a final note can everyone PLEASE take it easy on the way up, the boys in blue may be out & you'll have plenty of chance to ahem... stretch your car's legs on the day
Lets make it a day to remember, cheers.
