    Default Wakefield Friday 4th August

    Well guys, i've mentioned it a couple of times elsewhere already so its time to just start a thread on it. At the moment the date is reserved but we haven't put our money forward. There's a few guys away for this date from the other end of my group, so i'll have more spots for you guys to fill this time and i just want to make sure we'll get enough to cover before we go ahead and confirm the booking.

    I'd like to get a good indication of numbers by the end of the month so we can make a decision and get underway organising and confirming spots for everybody. The upside of this is that i can take a lot more spots for toymodders if you guys want them!

    We'll be looking at a limit of 30 cars total at around $120 (incl timers and a super special bbq lunch cooked by either myself, or more than likely someone else!). These numbers will be confirmed when we've got a good idea of how many spots to plan for and have broken down the pricing, before we ask for any money from anyone.

    This also means you've all got PLENTY of notice to get cars ready, lack of prep is no longer an acceptable excuse!

    Interest expressed

    Even if I don't have the coilovers by then, I should surely have the swaybars etc done.
    Be good to feel the improvement

    even if they haven't arrived yet (there's been a mix up in posting them and they were sent back) I'm just itching to get out there again...

    Ooh yeah, swaybars were a BIG improvement!! I reckon they're the single biggest improvement i've done to my car.

    Ok, so we've got a start, who's next?

    I'm in for sure. I don't even have to swap an RDO

    Rear wheel bearings & injectors are now done.
    Just the clutch issue left & I've got a month

    Good to hear steve

    Must say, i was expecting to hear from a few more of you, i'm going to need to see a few more numbers to be confident we're going to fill it

    We need to finalise this next week, where'd all the people go that keep telling me "next one, the next one for sure"???

    Ah, sounds good joel, i was hoping you'd be ready but didn't want to bug you about it! How's the manifold timeline looking? Can't really hurry it in situations like that huh. I hope you get it all sorted in time, be good to see the celica out there again. If you're in are you likely to have a couple of extras as well?

    Hey nathan, i reckon you'll be there, c'mon! Yeah its a bit of a big trip, but there'll always be help if you need to organise somewhere to crash for a night, remember we stay down there both nights either side so it should be more than do-able. You've got plenty of time to scrape together the cash, and you sounded last time like you'd caught the bug of knowing there's more time in you and the car, and having to get back and get your times down!

    This day is more with younger guys, so the timers are a definate from the word go. It fell through last time because they weren't organised till later and didn't get to everybody in time to confirm.

    Five weeks from today!
