Hi all. Ken has asked my to also bump this event again as he is away next week.

There are currently 5 cars confirmed for Silverstone, but ken was hoping for at least 8.
The organisers need exact numbers confirming within the next 3 - 4 days.

I will contact the organisers next week and book our advance tickets.
Tickets are valid for both days, and i believe we may be able to get passengers in FOC - ken is working on the organisers providing we can get over 8 cars on the stand.

Please reply to this thread or me promptly if you wish to attend.

I also need to get hold of club banners etc if possible.

Cheers

Tim

I've had my 'both days' ticket for ages, 'just wish I had a Stratos that moves.
'Might see you there?

It's worth going just to hear ONE Cosworth DFV at full chat, never mind all the rest?

You're not counting me are you?

The only way I could get my Stratos down the M1 would be in a Fred Flintstone styleee.

I'll be in the Vauxhall Corsa, how exciting.

Hi Chris, no, I have not included you in the count.

It will still be good to see you there.

Hi Tim, just thought I'd drop a quick line to mention that I spoke to Ken a few weeks ago to say I would be bginging my car along-don't know if he passed the message to you or not.

Just in case you needed an accurate number to book for. I don't have any tickets etc so could you let me know what I need to do!.

Many thanks

Bob

Ditto on the 'what do I need to do' please Tim (or Ken).

Gives me a week to try and persuade the farking twin cam to idle properly.....not quite enough time to rebuild and install the V6 as I already have to replace the cams on the 155, rebuild a Zetec motor for the Westy, fit throttle bodies on the current Westy engine. So much for a week off......

The tickets have been sent to Kens house, but ken is away this week.

I assume that he will ship the tickets out when he returns.

Ken,

Sorry, I only just read this...but as the tickets arrived today, I suspect you found the info :)

Thanks, and see you Saturday.

I'm assuming you can pay at the gate. If so, see you there.

Thanks Ken...a good day viewing some great historic cars!

Shame you can't bottle the sound of a F5000 on full throttle.

'Looks like a Formula 1, 'sounds like a dragster...

...it's a Formula 5000!

What did that measure on the Richter scale as a full grid of them headed down to Copse?

It was all great to see, and hear!

Top day out Ken, looking forward to Rally supercar day now!. Good to see such a good turn out of the Stratos'-amazing how there aren't two the same!.
