Theresa, If I got a pass from you for the club area would I be locked in till the end of each day. Although I Have booked the 3 days off work my missus hasn't. . I will probably have to leave about 2pm on saturday to collect her from work and bring her to the event, unless I can persuade one of my sisters to collect her. . Having never been there before I am not sure how things are done, I never even knew about the passes.

They say you can't leave until the end of the day/show, which is about 5pm, due to cars running on the track. Last year, we were located near the entry/exit gate, so was easy to escape early. I know the car clubs are on the Polo Straight, but they still haven't sent me details of our exact location yet and we are also going in through a different gate this year, so I really don't know if it will be possible to get away early yet They change how things happen every year, so I can never really assume anything with them

Everyone still ok with this? Those who have bought tickets are allowed the access they have paid for and should have received tickets, HOWEVER, all the car passes have been sent to me. You need one of the car passes to be allowed access through to the Club stand, to display your Coupe, otherwise, you'll be directed to a general public car park.Entry through to the Club stands is not guaranteed after 8am, so we will be meeting up beforehand, in order for me to give you the car pass. As with previous years, we will meet at the Cholmondely Arms at 7.30 am. Anyone that needs my mobile phone number, please pm me I've heard nothing more from you Pinin or Reuban Johnny, are you ok with meeting up on Friday morning for your pass? I'll be waiting until about 7.45am for people to meet at the pub car park to give you all your passes over the weekend. Will be nice to know in advance if you're not going to turn up!

I said I was very unlikely T, and it still looks that way.

We must all do our part for the planet. I unplugged a row of electric cars that nobody was using.

Hi Theresa. Do the car passes have specific details on them, like names and dates for entry? I've just looked at my tickets and they say they are for Friday when I thought I'd ordered the Saturday ones Not sure how that's happened but I'll give them a call tomorrow to see if I can sort it out

Hi Adam No, there's no specific details on these passes, so you'll be ok Yes, definately ring them tomorrow and they should be able to sort things out. Orders online are still being taken, so I don't think you'll have a problem with them sending new ones out to you.

Thanks Theresa, I just hope they can swap them as I can't really afford another set of tickets.
I will be trying for Sunday this time though, it just works out better for me now.

I got in about 30 minutes ago Thanks to all for coming along and was good to see you all again. Todays (Sundays) weather was terrible and hardly stopped raining all day, but besides that, it wasn't a bad day until we left. Rob40's car was only firing on four when we left, so him and I pulled onto a bit of road for a quick look, but was too dangerous to stay there really. Seemed like a coil pack had gone down, so Rob rang Porkypaul to see if he had any spares, which he did and said he'd bring some back to us. Rob and I decided to head back to the morning meeting point of the Cholmondely Arms, which has a nice big car park to wait in and a bit of warmth, etc. On the way back to the pub, due to all the event traffic leaving, police were directing everyone a different way, but we needed to go straight on. The policeman stopped me and imagine my surprise when he came up to my window and said 'as you're from the Coupe forum, I'll let you carry on' I obviously looked shocked and he then told me he'd had a couple of Coupes in the past Told us we could carry on through, but to be careful due to the traffic pulling out, etc. So, a big thanks to that policeman for letting us do that Another thanks goes out to porkypaul for bringing some spare coils packs back for Rob and staying with us for a bit, trying to sort the problem - bigger problem than we thought, due to the wiring, etc The next thanks goes to ktm (Rob) for coming from Birkenhead with some different coil packs and also trying to sort the problem, as well as trying to sort something out with the Rac. In the meantime, a couple of the lads from the Cholmondely Arms and one was also a marshall who had directed us into the show throughout the weekend, came out to help. So, many thanks to Tom who stayed chatting to me and kept his headlights on Robs car, so we could see in the dark and many thanks to Luke who eventually got Robs car running properly again Also thanks to Jbt, Taffy, Barbz and whoever else we rang for help/advice Ktm, I hope you get back to Birkenhead safely and Rob40, I hope you get back to Carlisle safely and without further trouble. Also thanks to Rob for my coffees at the pub while we waited and for the spare fags to make sure I had enough to see me home

Hi Theresa, Ed checking in from lurker-ville! We had an awesome day - what an event! It was great to meet you and see some lovely coupes representing the club. If I can drag myself out of bed early enough next year I'll have to join you on the stand
