At this time i can still make it, and still wanting to be involved.

PranK,

Good luck dude I hope you find something soon. Being unemployed for 3 months myself, I know it's pretty tough out there in IT ATM.

What do you want to do for a job when you are ready to start again ?

Cheers,

[PranK]

hey Brendan, no stinkin' idea... kinda anything and everything.

[Duncan]

Hi All,

Firstly, thanks to all that volunteered to help out with this. The promotors have, however, clarified what the "pit stops" will be....we just have to pit, remove a velro sash from the car, get back in and head off! So, no need to get a crew together to change the tyre, only cheering is required.

Everyone is still welcome to come along on the day, as well as the mighty daewoo 1 hour race, all the regular categories will be running as well.

And PranK, does this mean we can cruise before midnight now

[PranK]

we can cruise whenever the hell we want!

[Duncan]

Well, sash removing cheer squad, I havent got confirmation of the programme for the weekend yet (as usual), but we will be out there. There will be races on from 9am-5pm, we'll prolly be there a bit earlier for scruitineering.

We should have one of the corporate boxes (usually the end one), so I'll see you guys there.

BTW, for anyone who would like to get into racing, the organisers of the daewoo series are running this contest for a free season, its being run in 2 weeks:

[Duncan]

Well, we've got the times for the combined touring / daewoo races:

Sat: Qualifying: 10am, Race 1: 12.00

Sun: warm up: 8.30, Race 2 (1hr): 1pm

See y'all there

[Duncan]

Well its was a good day out (apart from the small issue of remodelling the right front of the car

I'll be starting from 4th tomorrow, which has me in with a good chance.

I do actually still need another volunteer to help out tomorrow, we need someone to act as car controller when the jump out/jump in happens .

Whoever wants the job, I'll need you out there at 8am tomorrow so we can practice the stops during the warm up.

[B-Man]

Sorry I couldn't make it Duncan - I hope you got the message through Dan, I sms'd him.

How'd you go ?
