granby Posted April 18, 2006 Posted April 18, 2006 OK I've had a idea (no p**s taking please) [] I wasn't going to do the track session this year but if i do i will be able to take 1 passenger, now that passenger can be anyone so what i was thinking we could do is have a bid for the passenger ride around Castle Combe and the money pledged would go to charity (maybe Richard Burns Cancer Research) I think the passenger should be someone thats never been on track either as a driver or passenger so to get the full benefit, Castle Combe is quite a fast circuit and on the main straight last year i getting up to 120mph (legally []) so it should be a fun ride. Anyway thats my suggestion so what does everyone else think Ian
SCOOBYTOO Posted April 18, 2006 Posted April 18, 2006 Bloody brilliant idea Ian, well for you anyway[:S] can i just suggest though bidding ends before the relay so we can get the funds in.. say 1st May?
granby Posted April 18, 2006 Author Posted April 18, 2006 Bloody brilliant idea Ian, well for you anyway[:S] It's nearly as good a idea as leaving your bonnet open at Lydden yesterday []
markie Posted April 18, 2006 Posted April 18, 2006 Bloody brilliant Ian[Y] now then to get this off to a flying start i'll bid 50p[] only kidding[] £10 sounds better[]
granby Posted April 18, 2006 Author Posted April 18, 2006 £25 from me [] Nice bid Dean but i did say i would prefer someone who's never been on track and i do believe you have done a bit of racing yourself (not that i don't want you in the car Dean [] []) but i just thought it would be better for someone who doesn't know what they have let themselves in for[]

baser999 Posted April 19, 2006 Posted April 19, 2006 On a Japfest related issue, how long does it take for tickets to arrive - shop site states 28 days but never ordered from shop before so didn't know if this related to tickets as well? Order placed on 6 April and site says order complete.
baser999 Posted April 19, 2006 Posted April 19, 2006 thanks Dean, will give it until the end of the month then []
SCOOBYTOO Posted April 19, 2006 Posted April 19, 2006 japfest isn't untill 20th may, so i'd leave it a bit longer than than that m8
