RS246 Live!

Post by Andiroo » Fri Feb 29, 2008 12:07 am

Ok guys, time to put your cocks on the blocks.

This event, http://www.rs246.com/index.php?name=PNp ... ic&t=68083
welcomed by many as a step in the right direction for RS246, is about to die on it's ARSE because we haven't got the numbers :( Meant to be a fun day out for all S & RS drivers with a bit of everything - without the formality of a normal trackday, coz it's us running it :wink:

I've pm'ed many of you on the current list of interested 'yet to email MarkB', and some replies received (thanks guys :wink: ) but not that many.

It's your choice........

The alternative is that it dies now, or goes ahead as 'part' Audi/part t'other which will no doubt decrease the already piss-poor numbers as it won't be an Audi only event.

What do WE do guys?

Cheers,

Andiroo

Btw I've posted this everywhere, so Crew please delete as you guys see appropriate :wink:

Plus please remember this is NOT a trackday as such, even though there is the option to participate in the track time in the afternoon - it is more performance driving orientated IMHO, particularly with sprint and top speed events on the morning, and the autotest and acceleration / qtr mile in the afternoon. Any participant could have a vitual full day and NOT participate in the track time if they so wish, so it will not be hard on your car at all :wink:

We need your support guys, please ....... you know you want to :wink:

Cheers,

Dear all,

We would like to thank everyone who has signed up for RS246 Live. We firmly believe that RS246 Live is a unique event run for enthusiasts, by enthusiasts.

We have now reached the point where it is no longer realistic to nudge potential attendees in the right direction and hope. The simple fact is that we do not have the numbers as of today and that needs to change quickly to make the event happen.

Right now, we have 32 confirmed & we need to have 50 people confirmed & paid by 5pm on Friday 14th March and a further 10 by Friday 9th May.

Non forum members / other brands are welcome, but they must be invited by a forum member.

Please support us if you can.

Thank you
RS246 Crew

Maybe next year :)

One last attempt to get the numbers!

We have until Friday 14th March to get to the magic 50. These need to be paid up i.e. cheque with us but not to be cashed until we know the event is going ahead. If you have indicated your intention to attend but not yet sent the cheque, please get it to us by Friday. If it is a no-go, we will either post your cheque back or destroy it for you.

Non forum members / other brands are welcome, but they must be invited by a forum member.



Fingers crossed
RS246 Crew

If it is a no go, it's a real shame. A load of work has already gone into it, and it's for the forum members, not for profit or show.

Good luck crew, and if you only get to 49 then count me in twice...

We are delighted to announce that RS246 Live is now confirmed.

We still need more people to sign up to hit 60 and will probably be able to have more than that, so please, sign up if you can.

The next push is for Trade attendees and we will put a separate post up for that shortly.

I am locking all the model forum threads now, so please read & contribute here:

Thank you so much everyone for your support. Here's to a fantastic day out :)

RS246 Crew.


p.s. Mark will be catching up with all his emails & PM's in the next day or so.
