VR6Pete 1,455 Posted October 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 Don't forget that the gates don't open until 10 guys Club Chairman Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 1,455 Posted October 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 Brooklands have mailed today, we are only permitted 60 cars on the banked section of track in 2 groups of 30 due to new health and safety regulations Slightly annoying that we've only been told days before the event, we could have more, but would cost us 500 quid.... Please let me know if you you would like to be on the banked track group photos by replying. Naturally this is all weather permitting, so keep us updated with the forecast. Cheers guys Pete Club Chairman Link to post Share on other sites

VR6Pete 1,455 Posted October 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 I have now printed off 60 passes, 2x30 batches and will be given out on the day to the first 60 cars that arrive, these will allow you to take part in the banked track group photos. This will run in 2 batches of 30 cars and will last approx. 30 mins each session.I will continue to try and negotiate with brooklands in the mean time to see if we can get more cars on, its madness really when its money they are loosing out on!! But.... check out the trophies ! How awesome do these look? Daverse 1 Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 1,455 Posted October 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 Hi, I just wanted to send you a quick update regarding the V6 Festival taking place this Saturday @ Brooklands Motorsport Museum! What time does it start? The gates open at brooklands at 10:00am. There are various meeting points / convoys taking place, please check vr6oc.com and r32oc.com for details. Banked track group photos Brooklands advised us a couple days ago that we will only be allowed to take 60 cars onto the banked track or pay an additional £500 (!!), but for this years event we do not have the budget to do this unfortunately, however the issue we have is that that 80+ cars have registered before we we advised of this change from when we first booked the event with the venue, so to gauge interest we would like to know who is interested in taking part in the banked track photo then please fill out the following form http://form.jotformeu.com/form/32956160679364 to indicate if you are wanting to take part in the group photo or not. We will issue 60 passes on the day should the demand be greater than we have have allocated to us, however I am still trying to negotiate with the venue to allow us more cars on. Due to health and safely regulations, the group photo will only take place should the weather allow (keep those fingers crossed) and there will be cost of (£10 payable to Brooklands) per car who wishes to take part in the group photo session, each session will run approximately for 30 minutes. *** If anyone has some photography / video skills who can capture the day then please get in touch *** What are the show and shine categories? The show categories are as follows: Best wheelsBest interior Best engine bay Car of the show Runner up car of the show And maybe one more!! The VR6OC team will be judging the cars in the early afternoon with trophy and prize presentations around 3:00 - 3:30 (times are subject to change depending upon weather conditions). What are the prizes? We have made some awesome VR6/R32 head gasket style trophies for the above categories and in addition, we also have the following prizes sponsored by KleenFreaks for the winners. ShampooQuick DetailerKF stickers What does it cost? Adult £10.00Senior Citizen/Student £9.00Children (5-16) £5.50Children under 5 FREEFamily ticket £27.00Group Photo £10/car How to get here?The Museum is between Weybridge and Byfleet, just a few minutes from Junction 10 of the M25 and the A3 London-Portsmouth trunk road. Leave the A3 at the Painshill junction and follow the A245 towards Byfleet - look out for the brown Brooklands Museum™ signs. The main visitor entrance is reached via Brooklands Drive and Mercedes-Benz World. The postcode for satnavs is KT13 0SL.PLEASE USE THE CAMPBELL ENTRANCE OFF BROOKLANDS ROAD Did someone say cake? In celebration of the clubs 10th Birthday we will be brining large quantities of complementary cake, hand made by us finished with our club logo cake toppers!
