Southport National This Weekend
 

Hello all!

Just seen this on another forum (sorry Jimmy)

National Update
I have been down to the track tonight to check on the situation.
The track itself has no problems with flooding
The field however is wet & boggy, but if people are sensible there is still places to park
We would advise people wanting to camp to make other arrangements unless you have got a fully waterproof tent
Caravans will have to be parked closer together so no awnings
People coming on Friday just to put up their pitting tent are advised to park on Rotten Row & carry their tent into the park.
To save on space we are asking people to car share & pitting tent share
Please wear sensible shoes or boots
I would like to thank you all for your cooperation I hope it turns out to be a good Weekend
Regards Eric

So it looks like pitting in the awning is out of the question.

Stu - are you going to take the tent shell to pit in?:confused:

Yep, will do.
As long as it's not like last weekend it should be OK.

With no sleeping compartments erected (he-he) the tent shell shell is quite big, room for a couple of tables; first come-first-served.

Hello, another slight change of plan, Kash rang me today and said he was iffy about coming down due to possibility of no tents so I have said that if it is too wet to put his tent up to sleep in and the caravans can stay on the site then he and Gemma can sleep in our caravan (gemma on the shelf obviously!). If it is too wet to even put the caravan on then we either try and blag onto the Caravan club site at the back of the track OR we come back home and everyone stays at our house or between ours and Stu's.

Hopefully we can put at least the caravans on and if need be put Kash's shell of a tent up to pit in ( nice and big).:D

:D:pkind offer of you mate, bagise the sofa at yours then

seriously tho, duno what we will do if its soggy, we just have a tent.. and.. we'll get wet
:(

nearest campsite to track with any vacancies is 16 miles, believe me ive rang them all:mad: got a double bed spare in my caravan only down side is you would have to share with me dog and she farts for england:o :D :D

Yeah! Must admit Jimmy, when I read the post back I was expecting 120 people wanting to stay at my house!!!:o

BUT, I think with today being dry in the North West the field won't be too bad as long as people are sensible.:cool:

Eric Evison has posted this on the "other" forum:

Drivers willing to share their awning with other people will be allowed. We should get the extra space by not parking your cars next to the van.
Further update on the state of the field will be posted here as soon as one of the local lads have been there.
hope this solves your problem & feel free to tell others
Eric

Cool.

Right, lets sort out whats happening tommorow and Saturday night food and beer wise! :D

G

Next (please) week is (buy) my 30th (me) birthday so (loads) on Saturday we (of) can go out (smart) in Southport (expensive) and have a good (presents) one.

:D

wtf! You were in bed EARLY. You didn't even join us on our 'little walk'!!

1am is hardly early when you've been up since 7 and have to get up again at 7 :S

Its early compared to 2.30 and up at 6.30.

4wd is up also,, goodness im tired.

Sorry Dan ! :)

nah, not really. get to that time and you're going to be worn out either way. or rather, have to get out of bed at silly time and you're going to be worn out.

Great pictures Jimmy!

Any of my Pred you could send me? :( I put a new wing on and everything..... :D

G

Godd pics again lads!

Can't get the smell of Northy's trouser region out of my Losi XX:o

Jimmy, can we have some "TEAM SPOON" stickers!!??

Yuri Gellar has nothing on you G, just stay away from the FORKS!!!:D

BOLLOX! I have developed Evans spelling.;)

You are obviously picture godds

Jimmy. Did you get any pics of the X10 in practice with a snapped chassis.

I don't think anyone got any of that, shame as it would have been a winner.

Got the galleries up now, I've included G's spoon shots in with the other 4wd pics.

We'll keep up the spoon crazyness next time, the more inaprporiate the spoon/racing situation the better.

OMG¬!!!!

I knew this was close in leg 2, but I thought we just brushed each other... I didn't know he actually drove over me! xx4 suspension can even drive over other cars!!!

Me and Barton... rubbins racing!

Love the Picutes Stu.

And Well done Jimmy, some classics!!!:D

Yup, I love picutes as well Gem.

Stu, none of my Pred! :( Just me being an arse! :o Good job you never had the camera Saturday night! :D

G

Sorry Scaramanga, no pred pic's. I was marshalling your heat.

Next time I'll bring my compact & take I out with us, could get messy.

You could bring your spoon.

Ok no worries. And you left early too and missed my final :(

we love you we love you northy:p


http://www.oople.com/rc/photos/northy.jpg

consider yourself spooned northy :O

The hand holding the spoon can not be Northy's, as the spoon is not bending!!!

PMSL

You can come back and have a voice on the subject after spending all day working on cars and running about with half a ton of camera taking 800 photos.

:)

Sorry Northy we did miss your final, but I think we got a bit pre occupied in getting the caravans off the field before everyone started to leave, churning the exit up even more.

How did you get on in your final?

You probably missed the best final of the lot (apart from the A obviously)! :D

Would take too long to type what happened, I'll tell you when I next see you.

Came 4th though. :D

G

........do you do the fandango?
