colin_ross Posted August 23, 2008 Posted August 23, 2008 By this time next week we'll have already left for the biggest Subaru meet in history. Time to start a checklist to make sure we're all ready. Accommodation booked - check Pass from the missus - check Time off from work - check Suitable transport - check Sticker attached - check Pocket full of beer tokens - check Now all I've got to do is throw some clothes, pro plus, red bull, asprin and credit card in a bag and I'm ready. Can anyone think of anything else?

andy Posted August 23, 2008 Posted August 23, 2008 I'd definitely ensure either waterproofs or an umbrella. Hopefully the weather will be kind to us, but Prodrive, Warwick is very exposed with virtually no shelter.
