4. Andrew
5. Keith
6. Kimi tbc
7. Wingnut

I've pencilled an NMOC team in as 6 out of the 10 slots have gone already.

Meee but might not be able to get back from Bristol, hope I can

It's a long way off yet, but I'll be up for it!

payment terms set down by East Coast are as follows:-


£10.00 deposit by 31st August 2012 (non refundable).

Balance £27.00 by 31st October 2012 (non refundable)

£1.50 Insurance will be payable on the day


I cant make the August meeting due to work, so deposits prefered at the July meeting so I can send one payment off to Pat

I will have a go this time

i will book a second NMOC team.

3 places left at the moment

deposits will be required for july meeting, so I can forward it off to Pat @ East coast.

So far...

1. Craig £10 paid
2. Dan £10 paid
3. Steve £10 paid
4. Andrew £10 paid
5. Keith £10 paid
6. Alan £10 paid
7. Paul Dale £10 paid
8. Dave Pickup £10 paid
9. Georgie (Steve's wife) £10 paid

Wingnut - did you say last night you were bowing out of this? I forget.
Craig, Dan, Kimi - can you bring deposits to the committee meeting next week please.
Dan - can you get a deposit off Andrew and Craig from Steve?

Any other takers?

I'll have the other deposits with me next week - either you or I can send them off Craig.

Pat emailed me, Michelle and Craig today. He says we're down for 10 places at the moment which is a nice number for two teams of 5. If Wingnut isn't coming it means we're down to 8. I spoke to the lad who does the kart racing last night and I think he might come along - I can't remember his name (sorry if you're reading this, my bad) - but if we can't find out for sure I guess we'll have to go with 8. Don't know if we'll be allowed two teams of 4 or not...

Balance of £27 will be needed by October's meeting.

I may have 1 other.

Keith I replied to pat, saying deposit collection is in hand

I've updated the list (above) and have sent the deposit of £90 off today.

The balance for this event needs to be paid by the end of the month so can everyone bring the remaining £32.50 to the club meeting this week please.

Apparently there are 50 drivers taking part so it should be a great day of racing!

Edit: I've just noticed it was £27 we were supposed to pay as a balance - will find out why it's increased.

Edit2: It's not increased, original price was £42.50 (see first post in this thread) not sure why Craig then thought it was £27 a bit further down the page.

outstanding balance is £32.50 confirmed with patrick today

sorry about the confusion but theres been 2 prices quoted on the East coast site.

Balances paid:

1. Craig £10 + £32.50 paid
2. Dan £10 + £32.50 paid
3. Steve £10 + £32.50 paid
4. Andrew £10 + £32.50 paid
5. Keith £10 + £32.50 paid
6. Alan £10 + £32.50 paid
7. Paul Dale £10 paid
8. Dave Pickup £10 paid
9. Georgie (Steve's wife) £10 + £32.50 paid

Paul and Dave - can you get your balances to me please so I can send a cheque off. Ta.

Full details to follow, but the start time is expected to be 10am.

Paul can no longer make it, so there's a spare place if anyone is interested - would be a shame to lose the deposit.

Dave - can you let me know if you're still coming, I haven't received your balance yet and don't want to write a cheque out for the lot if you can't make it after all.

Unfortunately Paul & Dave have had to pull out due to other commitments, so now the team looks like this:-

1. Craig
2. Dan
3. Steve
4. Andrew
5. Keith
6. Alan
7. Georgie (Steve's wife)

I'm arranging to send the money over now.

Time to do some homework on the track layout. A total of 48 drivers are taking part

Just been looking at route to the kart track. Postcode is IP1 5AP (12 farthing rd)

Looks like a Thetford and cross job for the swaffham/Fakenham lot. Keith and anyone from Norwich we can meet you at the end of the A140 (needham market area?)

There's a Travelodge at the A14/A140 junction? (IP6 8LP)
