I'm looking forward to this weekend!

[colintf]

according to Chris at MGCC Kimber House today, camping is avaliable Fri and Sat for those that want to make a weekend of it!

Come and support Paul Luti in Dreadnought's new TF LE500 Racecar Maybe david Woods will be out in his there as well?

[Keith Williams]

Updated the provisional racing order in first post.

They have rearranged the order so that the MG Trophy and Peter Best have both their races on the same day now and not split over the weekend so if you want to see the MG Trophy guys you need to be there on the Saturday

[colintf]

thanks Keith! Is it practice on the Friday?

[Keith Williams]

Is it practice on the Friday?

Timed practice for the race positions will be on each of the race days, so it will be an early start for most of us. This is normally close to 09:00 but at Oulton is was nearer 08:30 as it was such a full race day. Sunday start is normally a little later. Not had the final paper work through yet so not sure of what the timings will be. Normally racing is in the afternoon after a lunch break but this also changed at Oulton with 2 races before lunch. Fuller race day at Brands so will have to see what timings we get for that weekend.

There may be un-timed practice on the Friday but cars do not get scutinized until the day of their race so it wont be actual race practice.

[Keith Williams]

Looks like David Woods LE500 is booked in for the MG Trophy race this time. Two LE500s out on track. I hope they both complete the day with complete body panels this time

where can you viwe the timetable / entrants lists Keith? thanks

Bought my ticket via Chris at MGCC earlier today (01235 555552)

£14 = weekend
£9 = day

[Keith Williams]

where can you view the timetable / entrants lists Keith?

The entrants for the MGCC races only are at the site http://www.mgcc.co.uk/motorsport-topmen ... tries.html

The time table is still provisional and I got that from the MGCC Forum from one of the drivers posts. It is good that they will complete the Trophy and Peter Best racing on one day now. The 'formal' timetable will not be out till next weekend. When I get the list I will pass it on if it has changed from this provisonal one.

Re Re updated the schedule in post 1 above.

This is the schedule sent out to the marshals today, so hopefully it will be the final version.

Slight change to order from previous versions but only slight. MGCC Trophy all on the Saturday now.

Note:
First three races on the Sunday are before lunch starting at 11:50, so if you are only coming for Sunday for just one day take this into account.

I will be running the assembly area on the Saturday so if you do get there come and say hello

thanks Keith - i somehow missed this first time around

My fault Colin as I try to be too clever and modify the first post so it does not have confusing changes seen in the main body of the post.

Obviously does not alway work
