Ugent Request

I have received an invite to the
international GT meeting April 12/13
from Chris Edwards

Can everyone spread the word to all the XR2 drivers as I don't yet have all their email addresses. Chris needs replies urgently.

Terrific news, I'm up for it and think everyone should support it if they can.

Must have overslept.
Didn't realise it was April 1st!

Will need more details before deciding.
Depends on how many races we get, entry fees and how much Iain C will charge for race support over the two days (if it's a Sunday race).

Strangely the Knockhill website mentions the fiestas in the blurb and testing schedule - but not on the race day schedules.

Latest info I have is

entry fees £220.00 same as legends FF

C'mon guys get your name down. Extra signatures on licence for those novices amongst us!

The timing of this event isn't great - three races in one calendar month is fecking expensive!

I suppose though that the long term good of the XR2s should take priority.

I may have to miss the April SMRC meeting though.

I'm sure that's a huge relief to the championship hopefuls.

Is this championship points scoring rounds?

I emailed everyone I could get an address for but due to pressures of work and other things I have not been able to chase people up and drum up support from the waverers.

At this moment there does not seem a high enough level of strong interest to go forward with it. (I got 11 interested and 2 or 3 maybes. This normally results in a turnout on the day of 8 to 10 cars, which is below the level the SMRC would be comfortable with.

I'll try to get more accurate info and push some people next week if it is still a possibility

I do not have the deadline date, perhaps they may still take a late block entry to fill their card

Thanks Charlie.
I don't envy you you're position!

From my point of view I just need to know what's happening - one way of the other - as soon as possible.

Many orphan children are reliant on my monetary situation!

Of course, when I say "orphan children", I do actually mean Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 5 GSR.

Like many orphan children; it needs a service, an exhaust change and it's alloy wheels refurbished!
