Belgium GP organisation

[footey]

dosent look good for me so will be a trip to ITALY i think to support the lads
im reserve 10 in 2wd and 17 in 4wd gutted

[Chrislong]

I think I was close to being one of the last to get entry, at 8am-ish...

Its sold out quicker than UB40!

I'll be going via car with Daneth, but keen to meet up with Footey, Garry, Neil and whoever else, we can have a few drinks on the overnighter from Hull etc...

[janus_77]

Slots filled up fast, wasn't expecting that as its so close to the Euro's , but this is a big compliment to Heremans and all of the other people of the club.

[super__dan]

Holy carp, that's nuts!

Not looking good for Danny :-(

[footey]

i wont be there chris im well down on the reserves but the outher lads got im gutted

[Danny McGee]

Nope Danny has been told that he is and i quote

"Hello Danny,

We're very sorry but we've already had to start the reserve list:
number 17 reserve 2wd, number 25 reserve 4wd.

Willy & Liliane"

Dam being a student and always sleeping in late.

[super__dan]

Bad news, by the way chaps I do remmeber the reserve list being long last year (though after a couple of days not hours) but that quite a lot of people dropped out. I think sme may not really realise how close it is to the Euros, and just other things crop up. Trouble is you may not know until close to the time.

X Factory Driver Antoinne was I'm sure reserve 10+ and got in but not until the week before. Shane, if you can leave the time free, I wouldn't write off your chances just yet!

[footey]

my times free m8 so will see what happens

[Cooper]

numbah 14 in 2wd

it's CRAZY how fast everything is filled in, last year it took about a week
now +- 8hours ...

[matdodd]

19 in 2wd & 14 in 4wd for me

[xx4-nutter]

ye dan i recon that idea of going in car is probibly best as you pointed out. i recon we should all meet up at the ferry car park or somthing.. we only live a few mins away, infact i can hear it from my house on a foggy night !

should be a fantastic trip !

Hi Neil,
No, im not a fan to be honest.

Meeting up is a must. Will see you at York shortly, or perhaps Batley on Sunday - but we have heaps of time to go over the fine details.

To the creatures of the night who have secured places at the 2008 Belgian GP - please be advised that the event takes place during the hours of daylight!!!!
Regards
Count D (154th Reserve) - I'm not bitter!

Wow, what time did you register?

[jimmy]

crazy, I didn't even realise you had to register so early! we were thinking of going before Euros.

[CharlieF]

The 154 is a favorite number of mine, and not the actual reserve places which are 24 for 2WD and 28 for 4wd at mid-day on the opening day for entries. Perhaps as this venue is gaining in popularity to this extent we in the UK should be putting it forward for a Round of our National Championship. From WISBECH it is closer than Southport for instance!

[mw02veg]

that would be mega.tis true it was closer than southport and v=bury for me werent muchtime difference neither

lol im garry, ye we will be at batley regional sunday chris, 7 months to go !

OK - Im warming to this! We already have cross border Regionals in NW/NE and in ME/EoE why not cross-border nationals? We are struggling for "good" national venues (apparently no-one likes flat grass anymore). Who's up for a National in Belgium if Willy and Liliane are prepared to host and offer a convenient weekend?
Did I just think that out loud?

(None beer-fest weekend though, so we can camp AND sleep )
