Jude Posted April 5, 2003 Share Posted April 5, 2003 Not sure if the same rules apply but last year at the club track day , camping was allowed in the paddock from 2pm on the Friday. Geoff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardO Posted April 6, 2003 Share Posted April 6, 2003 Camping was certainly OK at Lydden last year - although there was no mention of it in the final or supplementary regs at the sprint I went to, there were quite a few folk camping - including DM from caterham midlands.

RichardO Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 Still no Lydden instructions in todays post.... they're cutting it a bit fine.... R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Bees Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 It's pretty normal for the finals to arrive some time during the week immediately preceding the meeting. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAUL MARRIOTT Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 Yeeee Haaaa.....got in, Gary called last night to say that I'm off the reserve and on the track. Apparently he'll be posting the instructions out last night or today. Paul M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver 21 Posted April 8, 2003 Author Share Posted April 8, 2003 Hi I contacted Gary last night and he has sent me a list of who is competing on Saturday and the final regs so if anyone wants this info contact me via email and I'll forward it on, Graham Competition Secretary Lydden, Curborough, MIRA, Llandow, Loton Park, Curborough, Aintree...What more can you ask for?

No Nuts Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 Hmm, it appears from the FI's that my entry has me down for the 7 club chamionship but not the AEMC one. Double Hmmmmm. Guy NN 😳 Lotus @ Herts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Nuts Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 Association of Eastern Motor Clubs - see here I'm defending (or at least hoping to) a class title this year. I spoke with Gary from TWMC re Lydden and he's moved me to class C7. I was hoping I could be eligible for both the L7C and AEMC championships at the one event (look at the FI's, it's a common thing to be eligible for mutiple championships at one event) but it looks as if because we are running in a separate class that's not going to be possible. So I've plumped for the title I'm defending. I'll obviously see all you chaps there but will be running a little earlier in the order than you all! Now number 20.

No Nuts Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 Ah, I see Graham beat me to it by the speed of my machine (I wonder if that's why it took 5 minutes to post my reply - the temptation to repeatedly press the "post" button was great but I did resist!!)

Graeme Smith Posted April 9, 2003 Share Posted April 9, 2003 Don't suppose you could break the entry list down into L7C classes, Graham? Will there be L7C class trophies? Or do I have to try and beat Peter Carmichael!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver 21 Posted April 9, 2003 Author Share Posted April 9, 2003 Graeme If I get a chance later I will try and break it down by class, the difficulty is that I'm not sure which class everyone is in as some didn't include it on their championship registration, so I may have to check on Saturday. There will not be specific trophies at Invited Club status meetings due to the limited number of people likely to compete at these events. I can tell you that there are 5 contenders in Class 1 out on Saturday, Yourself, Gordon, Young Herring & Matthew & Andrew Jenkins Graham Competition Secretary Lydden, Curborough, MIRA, Llandow, Loton Park, Curborough, Aintree...What more can you ask for?

Mike Bees Posted April 9, 2003 Share Posted April 9, 2003 Guy - you *should* be able to score points in both championships. It's not uncommon for an event to include competitors from multiple championships with different class structures. In those cases whoever collates the results for the championship uses the recorded times to sort out where you would have finished with respect to the championship class structure.

robmar Posted April 9, 2003 Share Posted April 9, 2003 Graham - thanks for this - got confirmation in the post last night, even though they got my name wrong re camping - I will get back to you on that, it sounds like a good idea but need to check a few things, was planning to convoy down with allegro at the crack of dawn but that sounds early to me.... There are some class 3 regulars besides myself, The McFarlanes, Grigsby, Allen Payne anyone else 🤔 rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver 21 Posted April 9, 2003 Author Share Posted April 9, 2003 Guy I can confirm what Mike is saying, I am happy to count your times towards our championship as well even though they have put you into your local championship class, I have competed quite a few times where times have counted for two championships at the same meeting.

Silver 21 Posted April 9, 2003 Author Share Posted April 9, 2003 Rob I'm also playing in Class 3 this year, got myself some used ACB10's but not sure how competitive I will be (just like Class 2 last year then) Graham Competition Secretary Lydden, Curborough, MIRA, Llandow, Loton Park, Curborough, Aintree...What more can you ask for?

Silver 21 Posted April 9, 2003 Author Share Posted April 9, 2003 Rob I'm definately camping but may not get there until 8 - 9pm as I've got to do a derig at Millbrook on the way down.

No Nuts Posted April 9, 2003 Share Posted April 9, 2003 Graham Oooh! Wonderful, thanks!! Much appreciated. Watch out class 2 then! And what's all this sloping off to class 3 about eh?? Actually, just how good are those ACB10s? I always give myself a fright at the first sprint practice run going back to the 1a tyres after using only 21r's on the road! See you Saturday, bright and early!! Guy NN 😳 Lotus @ Herts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kipper Jnr Posted April 9, 2003 Share Posted April 9, 2003 Guy, Don't forget that there are a few more in class C7 than on the regs, for one there is me, then my dad, and graham (with his upgrades). I don't think we are being moved so if it is a drying track it will be interesting Rob Ford: Engineered for life - built to rust!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Nuts Posted April 9, 2003 Share Posted April 9, 2003 Robert, have you confirmed this with Gary as he has moved me to #20 and class C7? Guy NN 😳 Lotus @ Herts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kipper Jnr Posted April 9, 2003 Share Posted April 9, 2003 No, I didn't believe there was any need. Did he move you at your request or did you have to be moved to count for the AEMC championship?
