I'm going to be there for 9.30.

Any thoughts of starting the parking around the perimeter of our patch, going up the sides at an angle then across the back facing forward. After that fill the middle in but trying to leave space to no one is blocked in. We may be able to but a few cars the other side of the path if space runs out.
Any thoughts, would that work?

Its hard to say untill we see how much space we have.

Lol i can be there for 9 no problems just look for 6ft6 guy with the MR2 tshirt on :thumleft:
You should have seen me at the HPOM last year when the Porsche owners club decided it was good idea to use our pitch as their drive through to get in quicker. :twisted:

From google earth and some jiggery pokery with your image they provided you it looks like we have an area of about 40m along the front and rear 35m up the side with the SXOC on it and about 25-30m up the S2000 club side

plenty of room for 35 If we get there early though we could maybe speak to the marshalls and see if we could swap with the S2000 club to give us some more room as we have 35 cars possibly coming.

Is there any chance to get another 4 people on the list?

I say 4 people but it is just me that is a member on here at the mo.

Is this something i need to pay for in advanced or do you still pay on the door for the discount?

I know it's a bit late, just i have a free Sunday now and wouldn't mind coming along, i'm sure the more the merrier :lol:

We're not going to fit on that plot - we have 35 cars, each of which is about 7m.sq in area (4.17m x 1.70m according to my handbook). Even with a less than ideal 25cm gap around all sides of the car (for the useful ability to get out by opening the doors :lol: ) that makes each car need 10.2 m.sq

10.2 x 35 = 357 m.sq

Our plot looks to be about 120 m.sq. :-k
