Car Fest 2013

Quick update for you all. Following a weekend of meticulously going through the forum thread, I have updated the attendees list on the first page - LINK. I have also trawled through the thread and made sure that everyone who expressed interest and in the order the request was made, is on the list.

Again, I have used the "I can attend any day" means you are down for all 3 days rule of thumb, until I get final confirmation. Based on this I've even knocked myself from 6th on the list to 12th! It's a bummer that the event organiser might not even be able to attend the event himself.

The list is now colour coded with Green meaning confirmed and Red for unconfirmed.

If I haven't PM'ed you already, your name is in Red and especially if you are wanting to attend the SOUTH event, can you please post to this thread stating your order of preference on day(s) to attend. For example:

CoolAsLife - SOUTH
1. Both Saturday and Sunday
2. Saturday
3. Sunday
4. Friday

As you can see, the interest for the SOUTH on Saturday and Sunday is overwhelming. We think it is better that for these days on the SOUTH event it would be fair to limit attendance to 1 day per person.

You'll also notice that a there are lot of unconfirmed spaces on the Friday with most people preferring the Saturday/Sunday. If you are already down for a Saturday attendance and you think you can get the time off work, please consider making a Friday & Saturday visit to this great event.

Otherwise, I fear we would only have a very minimal attendance on the Friday for both NORTH and SOUTH events.

If you have any questions please post them here and I will be on hand to assist. I know that for the first draft list, it may have put a few noses out of joint. This was not my intention and apologises if it appeared that way. My aims to be fair, keep everyone happy and have an many people attend to make this a fantastic event. A challenging undertaking being my first event organisation for this club!

To be fair to yourself it's a unique first event to organise because you have two events rolled into one thread and they are both three days long!! So in effect it's six meets in one go!! Well done for keeping on top of it all :) It might be easier to split it into two threads now to keep it simpler.
 
:bow: top work so far Danny.

Just to confirm my preference:

Ddouble - SOUTH
1. Saturday
2. Sunday
3. Friday

:approve:
 
What happens if we can't fill the north one? Though I can't believe we're struggling to get 7 Vees to such a great event. A cracking advert for the car too

I'm more concerned about filling the Friday than the Saturday & Sunday. Although there is not an event obligation to fill all 7 spaces for the Friday, we do have a commitment to have a full compliment of 7 cars for the Saturday and Sunday.

Hell, if it's the only way I can get on the event, I'll be making the trip up north myself.

Surely not too many tight northern people? C'mon chaps you're showing us up ;)

Not too bad as we have family in Cheshire where we're gonna stop ;)
 
I'm happy to just do the Friday for the South event and you can remove me from the Saturday and Sunday Reserve lists please :).

Done - You're also confirmed for the Friday

Thanks for the feedback guys.
 
Thanks Danny :approve:

So, who's camping it up for the North event?
Small tent should fit in the vee. Saves taking the vee in and out too.
 
Sorry guys been pushed to confirm what i'm upto for other commitments that weekend.

Just had a PM and this is still un-confirmed, so sadly i'm out now.

I'm dissappointed as i thought this was arranged but it seems not. [smilie=icon_cry.gif]

Hope it all goes well.

Cheers for the confirmation. I have updated the list.

There have been other posts and PM's coming in and for the NORTH, everyone is now confirmed - excellent news. There are still 3 spaces available for the NORTH on both Friday and Sunday.
 
I have now dropped myself out of the SOUTH event altogether.

I will now be joining the northerners at Oulton Park for the entire weekend. I managed to find some for tickets online for Saturday, so I will be Joe Public for a day and a club member for the Friday / Saturday.

I'll also be camping.
