Silver 21 Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 All I haven't got round to organising anything yet and am therefore looking for sensible suggestions for the above event. My initial thought was somewhere central that could potentially take 100-120 people for lunch on a Sunday. (another championship I used to compete in used to hold it at the Heritage Museum at Gaydon and this could be an option, look round the museum and then Sunday Lunch with Paper Aeroplane fights) The plan is to award trophies from the non L7CGB events and the main championship awards and generally enjoy ourselves over lunch or dinner. Has anyone got any alternative suggestions and/or willing to help organise *idea* *idea* (motorsport links/venue would be ideal) Graham Competition Secretary Lydden , Curborough , MIRA , Llandow , Loton Park , Curborough *thumbup*, Aintree...6 down, only 1 to go and its very close Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graeme Smith Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 Sounds a grand idea, Graham. Gaydon sounds good (though the museum doesn't seem as good as it used to be). Other ideas - something at the Brands Festival?, does Donington Collection have a function room?, Brooklands?, possible to gatecrash the Caterham Motorsport dinner?

Jason Plato Posted August 27, 2003 Share Posted August 27, 2003 The donnington motorsport museum would be realy good . I guess they have a function room , or is there a hotel near by ?? dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric McLoughlin Posted August 27, 2003 Share Posted August 27, 2003 Donnington has a large exhibition centre which might be suitable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Durrant Posted August 27, 2003 Share Posted August 27, 2003 Graham Excellent idea and Donnington sounds good to me. Mark D Su77on Se7ens Avoiding the Kerbs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Kipper Posted August 27, 2003 Share Posted August 27, 2003 Great idea. Donnington's a bit of a haul for us southerners but it makes sense to have something central. Anyway, I've never been to Donnington so maybe a chance to take in the museum would be a bonus. Kipper Fun is not a straight line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Plato Posted August 27, 2003 Share Posted August 27, 2003 On Sunday November 2nd , Donnington also have a Trackzone trackday for £120 ........ Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Plato Posted August 27, 2003 Share Posted August 27, 2003 My Wife and I are willing to help in the organisation of a dinner Graham . Give me a ring to discuss if you like ... dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver 21 Posted August 28, 2003 Author Share Posted August 28, 2003 It seems perhaps this isn't a good idea due to lack of responses, I've had an answer back from Donnington and they can do it at the end of October, I will check other dates and then post the proposals online Graham Competition Secretary Lydden , Curborough , MIRA , Llandow , Loton Park , Curborough *thumbup*, Aintree...6 down, only 1 to go and its very close Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikes Posted August 29, 2003 Share Posted August 29, 2003 I wouldn't give up on the idea just yet. It could be that most are just too lazy to post anything, like me. As Kipper said, it is a bit of a trek for us Southern boys but even if there wasn't going to be the massed press and TV coverage, celebrities etc and the excitement of picking up of silverware (well....I can hope) I would still try and make it.

Steve Day Posted August 29, 2003 Share Posted August 29, 2003 Hi Graham Just a thought...if the numbers aren't too great it might be possible to join the Aldon/HSA do at Gaydon in November...book, say, three tables and do the awards at the end of the HSA ones?... This might work as there are a few people in both L7C and Aldon championships cheers Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Nuts Posted August 31, 2003 Share Posted August 31, 2003 Sorry Graham, I didn't realise you were after yeah or nay's. Count me in for two Yeah's, but please bear in mind my sprint season doesn't finish until end of October. Most weekends are booked up until then. So sometime in November?

robmar Posted September 1, 2003 Share Posted September 1, 2003 Graham - just back from hols this am (5:10 am plane landed)... count me in, and let me know if you need any help if not a major response then maybe justa get together over a pub lunch for those that are up for it 🤔 rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EddieSLR Posted September 1, 2003 Share Posted September 1, 2003 Graham Count me in. Any reasonably central location seems a good bet. Good look to anyone competing at Aintree. Can't be there myself ☹️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
