BBQ Catering at the Alford event on Sunday is being provided by the Inverurie Round table. All proceeds from food sales will go back to deserving causes in the local community, so please buy lots of food during the day (leaving enough for me of course) ;)

As in previous years, anyone who is willing to put on a dayglo vest for an hour or two and help with either marshalling the track activities, operating a stopwatch, collecting donations on the gate or directing cars to the correct parking areas within the site will be given a token that they can exchange for free food and drink at lunchtime :)

I'm also looking for a couple of people to help me set-up the site on the Saturday afternoon from 2pm onwards. This is basically wiring up the PA system, and putting up some safety fencing around the track. With 3 or 4 people, this should only take about an hour.

Any volunteers?

That's good news john!! :)

Unfortunately I wont be able to help set things up this year, still recovering from a recent op.. :guinness: On that note, I still have the SIDC stand and not sure if I'll be able to bring it through to Alford on Sunday morning.. Just out of interest, what time are the "organisers" going to be opening the gates on the Sunday?

May need to ask for a "volunteer" with a sensible car to pick up the SIDC stand from me on the saturday or something... ;)

I would hope to be opening the gates around 9am on the Sunday for the organiser to get in and get the last minute things sorted, with the gates opening at 10 for general entry ;)

I'm sure there will be a few from your neck of the woods heading to Alford and who could help with getting the stand along :)

Cheers

Hi Grant,

will be great to have you along at the event. We will indeed be running the small sprint track all day so you can have some fun with your track car.

There is no charge for vendors taking part, so feel free to bring lots of parts for sale on the day, price lists, brochures etc.

Thanks guys - the more the merrier.

Arthur - stopwatch would be fantastic :lol:

Also, if anyone has a set of those walkie-talkies could they bring them along. It seems the re-chargeable batteries in my set have died and won't hold a charge any more.

Cheers

Will try to make it up, im going to try get my twisted exhaust setup installed, all I need is some samco type hosing to get from the twisted turbo setup to the standard topmount. If I can get this installed I will be there to run on track, if not I will be there to help out on the day but in stealth mode with the standard exhaust back on ....if I can remember how to get there that is :lol:
