Club Triumph Autosolo Sunday 18/07/10

Tim

My wife asks "is this event only for triumphs or can she bring her impreza?"

[Tim Bancroft]

Tim,

Historics only-pre 31/12/81.

It is prefered that CT members only enter using Triumph cars. We are a Triumph Club after all.

Sorry, it would have been good to see your wife's Impreza. if she is interested in this sport, get her join her local motor club. Most are running Autosolo events.

Hope we see you and your GT6.

I  think her comments were made a little "tongue in cheek!" ;D

as far as attending myself it's just too close to le mans to be affordable.

as a point of interest didn't a fellow club member take his impreza to a CT autosolo either last year or year before???  

[ferny]

Last year was the first one for 20 odd years? Nigel took his Scooby and tested the courses with it a couple of times when it was being set up and once at the end. It was never (officially) timed though.

[Tim Bancroft]

That's the problem with the written word, one ever knows!

Yep, Pete is correct, Nige used his Impreza to test the course. Nige will be using either Dale's Herald again or my GT6.

Shame that Tim cannot make it, I'd love to see more GT6s entered.

I have no objections to Nige using my PI for testing the course Tim, that way I will be able to miss the cones.
I see there is a class for me 'F' yippie I will have to send in an entry form??????
I'll await for Tim's response on this one ;D

[Tim Bancroft]

Pete,

It'll be great to see you at the Solo.

[Ridgetone Triumph]

Can I get to run in class F
I see it in the rules but not on the entry form

[Tim Bancroft]

Pete,

F or C will be ok.

Entry now at 13no. Alan Petit and Adam Willison now entered.

Shaping up nicely, still hoping to see a few Northern CT members-are you reading this, Yorkshire?

Mike, you guiys did well at the HCR Gymkhana, so it would be good to see a few of you down here.

I guarantee that you will enjoy yourselves!

[molsmagic]

Multi map shows the village of bovingdon but where's the airfield?

I shall beat the drum up here to muster attendance
Fear ye not the ferrets and whippets will be beaten with a flat cap and locked away for the day ;D

Bovingdon is just off the A41 near Hemel Hempstead

If I remember correctly from last year, and if it's in the same location, you'll want Upper Bourne End Lane.
