Hi there

Thanks first of all for your clubs support so far

At the outset of this grand plan to celebrate Colins association with Subaru it was the intention of this convoy to replicate the success of the RBRelay from John O'Groats to Lands End, which raised 17k for the RB Foundation. At the begining we had no idea how well Prodrive would respond and never in a million years did we think Prodrive's response would have been on the scale that it has.

The original plan for the weekend had the main convoy driving from Lanark to Banbury via the M74, M6, M60, M62, M1, M25 and M40. This original route would have taken up the full Saturday, leaqving Lanark at 10am the convoy was estimated to arrive at Banbury at 8pm. This would have left the full Sunday to accomadate a mass meeting of Subaru owners at the Banbury facilty. In the light of Prodrives response we have amended the route to allow the convoy to get to Banbury for about 4pm and have the main tribute convoy travel between the 2 Prodrive sites on the Sunday. The revised route from Lanark to Prodrive on Sat the 30th of Aug is A70, M74, M6, M5 and M40. I humbly apologise to drivers, clubs and groups that were planning the weekend around the intial route. Hopefully the route change will not stop anyone from attending what is sure to be a fantastic tribute to a true Subaru legend

Provisional format for the weekend
.........................................

Saturday morning at 10am the cars will leave Lanark Market.

M74 - M6

Refuel stop at Charnock Richards on the M6

M6 - M5 - M40

Final destination is Prodrive at Banbury, hopefully arriving at about 4pm

.................................................. ...........

Sunday morning, cars from all over Europe will converge on the Banbury facilty for 10am (Marshalls to be on site at 9am)



Prodrive will open the SWRT workshops, open the Heritage centre, fire up some of Colins cars and have a BBQ on the go with the obligatory Bacon Butties.

The main group will leave Banbury at 12 noon, hopefully led by N1WRC (this is subject to the car being taxed and MOT'ed), and join the M40 at Jct 11 westbound heading for Jct 15.

Hopefully we can get the convoy from Point A to Point B in about an hour



From 1pm until 5pm the group will be located at Prodrives Warwick test facility

Only cars bearing the official sticker will be allowed access to the Test Facilty. A checkpoint will be setup both at the gates of the Warwick facility and where the convoy leaves the A4177 about 2 miles from the gates of the test facilty

Prodrive are looking into to arranging some driver demo's and hopefully will be offering Pax rides with Prodrive test drivers on varying disciplines like the skid pan and the adverse handling track. Due to Insurance restrictions only Prodrive employees will be able to take Prodrive cars out on track. All the attendee's at Warwick are to be parked on the main runway of the airfield.

Stickers will be made available for sale in the next 7 days

As above really

Stickers! Get Your Lovely Stickers!

Yup, they're available!

Excuse the poor impersonation of the Child Catcher in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang! We did tell you things were going to happen in a bit of a blast once we got all the red tape out of the way and we're delighted to announce the the one and only OFFICIAL Stickers for the 2008 McRae Gathering are now available to purchase from our online shop

These stickers will allow you to be part of what is surely going to be the Subaru event of the year as we get together to mark and celebrate the life of a true legend whilst hopefully raising loads of money for Colin's favourite charities. They're priced at £10 each. Postage & Packing is £2.00 for up to 5 stickers then £2.00 for each additional 5 so 10 stickers would be £4.00 P&P, 15 would be £6.00 P&P etc etc. Apart from bearing them with pride these are ESSENTIAL to gain access to the Prodrive facilities on the weekend. No sticker, no access!

IMPORTANT NOTES - PLEASE READ!

Please note that ALL participants will have to carry a sticker somewhere on the FRONT of their car so they are clearly obvious to the Marshalls. This can be on paintwork or glass (for those who don't like putting stickers on paintwork!), but it must be obvious to smooth traffic flow into the Prodrive facilities. Because of that, you may wish to order two so you have a temporary one up front for the weekend and a permanent one to display on your back windscreen. It's entirely up to you, but all profits are going to the McRae charities.

At the moment we're only taking payments via PayPal - simply because this is quickest and easiest for most people and the stickers already bought have to be paid for so we need to do some quick fundraising! We'll be adding payment by cheque later for those without PayPal accounts and may add other payment gateways for convenience.

You will not be able to complete your order unless you input your car and contact details. We won't process orders if these fields are filled in with incorrect info or gibberish. We do need to know all cars registered for this event as part of our agreement and acceptance from the various bodies we've had to get permission from. We will fully comply with the Data Protection Act and your information will NOT be given out to anybody (unless you drive like a **** and the Police ask us! lol) or used for any purpose other than to identify those who are legitimate participants in this event. All data we hold will be destroyed after the event.

You can place your order for the event of the year by clicking here

Colin McRae Subaru Gathering - Browse

Please allow 28 days for delivery. We're pretty much geared up to get them out within a few days of ordering, but this is new to us and we expect an initial surge so please bear with us and allow us a bit of breathing space!!!



PS. Forgot to mention - for those going to Japfest, SIDC Chairman Phil Stephens will have limited stocks of stickers there so you can get them direct from him

Thanks for your support
