What a bunch of drama queens, make a cuppa and take a deep breath!!!
You don't have to pay to pit .... only if you want reserved pitting for a larger group then the club would just like a donation as they will get people bending their ear all weekend about the reserved pitting.
There is plenty of space and I doubt very much anybody arriving before Saturday will struggle. Those arriving Saturday / Sunday mornings might be advised to bring their own table and chair just in case as John has already stated.
I am fairly sure that it was similar at Maritime last year.
I'd also not worry about the organisation, the Ardent boys seem to be well on top of that side of business and have been taking on board what we all have been asking for through the winter series feedback ... give them a chance to show you how good a meeting they can run, sure they won't disapoint ... best indoor club I think I have ever raced at!
Sure Mr Petit will also do his usual cracking job.
Oh and Tony, that shipment of Kyosho branded red fairy dust has arrived, elephants are currently grounded due to the wrong type of peanuts at the departure gate but they should be landing at EMA sometime Thursday
