For the stand, no. Won't really know till the weekend concerned whether it's feasible, but as its only a couple of miles away it's easy to pop along if the planets are in alignment.

Ok mate , catch with you there then. :five:

Its only 10 mins drive from the Cobham Services on the M25 so that could be an easy solution :)

i think there is a supermarket nearby, Asda maybe, that's where I have met people in the past.

am not going but totally agree with steve

There's a Sainsburys a few mins down the road (other side of A3) that we've used a few times in the past for Mercedes Benz World events, but it'll be a bit busier with shoppers at 10am rather than the usual 7:30am on a Sunday!

What's happening regarding tickets/payments ?

Tickets are pay on the day,

Which is handy just in case the weather is inclement. :nod:

Is it a requirement to have a cage etc to get to drive the track?

The Brooklands Tesco is thirty seconds away, but same issue of being busy on a Sunday morning.

Cobham services is a decent bet... although a pain if you don't need to go on the M25.

I can't immediately think of anywhere better to be honest.

Will the supermarkets really be busy at say 9am on a Sunday when we meet up?

Doubtful they don't open til 10am

The Tesco is literally 30 seconds away, so would be more like 10am I had thought.

It would certainly be convenient if it was 9am.

Most supermarkets open their doors at 9:30am on a Sunday and start the tills up at 10:00am.

We should be OK to meet there for 9:50 and leave at 10:00 for a 10:15 entry into Brooklands. It's not like the car park will be rammed at 10:00 on a Sunday.

Where's everyone meeting up before getting there ?

I'll happily meet up at patcham BP and/or Peas Pottage if you/anyone fancies it?

Looks a brilliant day out! count me in.

Any update on track or test hill time? What are the plans and conditions for that?

With regard to the track:

After discussion with the organiser, we (SES) as far as I know we only have one eligible scoob to go on the test track, the organizer wanted any scoob that wanted to go on the test track to look like, a track prepared race car, so with the exception of CJ, I don't think anyone else s scoob would qualify.
If anyone else has a track prepared scoob that is attending please let me know.

With regard the run up the hill :

I have been allocated 6 positions, the names of peeps that wish to participate in this will be put in to a hat to decide who gets a place.

Sorry Chris only just noticed this post, the answer is yes.

Please see my last post.:ok:

This conflicts some-what with the original timetable ???

Timetable
09.00 Gates open
09.00-11.00 MB World Track signing on
10.00 Museum displays and aircraft open
11.00 MB World Track Drivers' briefing
12.00-13.00 MB World Track demo
13.00 Silver Arrows demo at MB World
14.00 Test Hill Drivers' briefing
14.45-15.30 Test Hill
17.00 Event and Museum closed

You are quite correct but this a the latest communication from the organiser.:

I'm quite happy with the 10ish start, means less of an early morning start! :)
