Fingers crossed it doesnt snow on monday night, otherwise that could make for a new experience at Curborough!! We had rain at one of the previous days and that was "interesting".

Hope for no snow me thinks driving a 330bhp single seater on snow does not appeal

fingers crossed for dry

Steel,

Yeah no problem to go down together. I'll give you a call tonight to sort out a meeting point (M6 roundabout would probably be the most sensible, or the pub car-park where we met the last time).

If there's only 7 going that £60 not £42 per car - an extra £28 per person, and i can't really afford that extra £28. Need to find 3 more people, how will we know if it's snowed off, will you taking our mob numbers and letting us know if thats the case?

Have to admit as the numbers drop and the costs go up it is getting more and more expensive, the only advantage is more track-time! Anyone know if people who might be willing/able to step in at the last minute?

I wonder if andy can get some of the costs off-set against car testing in the company expenses!!!

MY93 - I was thinking Junction 18 of the M6 at 9am. PM me your mobile number and I'll either give you a call or text you confirmation of the details once Ive spoken to Steel.

Good question about snow, we need to consider that as sleet/snow could be on the cards overnight or tomorrow morning. Heather will struggle to get there in her elise if the roads are bad, and if the tracks got snow/ice on it there isnt much point in going IMHO (enough people have gone off in the dry, let alone the snow, etc!!).

Default Its going to be cold

Just looked at the forecast, rain tonight, showers tommorow -2 with the windchill factor. Andy do you have an extra 3 people yet as i could do with making travel plans but im probably going to have to say no if it's going to be £60 each, any other month i would find the extra but this month and last month have resulted in lots of Bills. Although i may still go as if i don't go i'll then inrease the price to the remainder. **** don't know what to do.

If Andy cant get hold of ms2005 to confirm and you drop out Martin that only leaves 5.

I will be struggling to afford £80 odd for me and the same for heather (Im paying for both of us this time - Total £160 plus petrol, food, etc)

Just had some bad news about our central heating today so thats gonna cost us a few hundred quid to get right now too.

Just been to get petrol for tomorrow. The weather actually looks better than expected according to the latest forecast (bit wet but not too bad!). Guess we're all up for it unless we hear any different, and provided the roads are black not white!
