ASDA Charity Day at Bruntingthorpe on 9th August 2014
 

Ok guys, I've started the thread for the ASDA Charity Day on the P1WOC today. Some of you guys were joining us last year and think they enjoyed the day. So if you lot would like to join us again for this year, please let me know. http://www.p1woc.co.uk/forums/images...es/biggrin.gif Chris Buckler told us last year that we have a standing invitation for this year. I'm sure he'll contact me soon and in the meantime we can start the list already. http://www.p1woc.co.uk/forums/images...es/biggrin.gif

ASDA Charity Day will take place at RAF Bruntingthorpe, which is only 45 minutes north of London, on 9th August 2014.

It's awesome fun and one of the best events of the year and all you petrol heads and your families will hugely enjoy this.

This show is NOT open to the public but invite only and last year more than £40,000 were raised for the chosen charity. Any ideas to raise some more money are more than welcome. http://1.1.1.3/bmi/www.p1woc.co.uk/f...s/thumbup1.gif

You can take your own car round the track for free as often as you want to, provided you take a passenger along who had paid £5 for donation at the gates. http://1.1.1.3/bmi/www.p1woc.co.uk/f...s/thumbup1.gif

Accomodation: The Hinckley Island Hotel, where we stayed Friday and Saturday last year is £55 per room per night when you mention that you want to book it for the ASDA Charity DAY. The quote is "On your marks). http://1.1.1.3/bmi/www.p1woc.co.uk/f.../001_smile.gif http://www.thehotelcollection.co.uk/...eicestershire/




!!!! Attention please: The info below is still to be confirmed and I only copied and pasted it from last year's thread. I'm pretty sure it will all be about the same this year but I'll update this first post as soon as I hear about any changes. http://www.p1woc.co.uk/forums/images.../001_smile.gif

Entrance is actually free for car club members but we would like to ask everybody who is attending for a donation of £5 or £10 per pass which I will collect again when I give you your passes and will then hand it over to Chris Buckler. http://www.p1woc.co.uk/forums/images.../001_smile.gif One pass per car, no matter how many people are in it. Passes will be handed out in the hotel or at gate. http://www.p1woc.co.uk/forums/images.../001_smile.gif

Food & drinks are excellent and much cheaper than normal shows (no profit).


The pits are full up with every petrol heads dream cars.

Pay £5.00 and jump in any car you like for a fast lap. Lap includes a longggggg straight and plenty of twisties. Many gates so there are NO queues.

Lambo's, Ferrari's, All Skylines (up to 1000 bhp), AMG Mercs, TVR's, Corvette's, Evo's, Scoobies and many more.

Air Displays run for much of the day including wing walkers.

Fire Brigade display how they tackle a raging fire. Sirens and the full works putting out a blazing caravan.

You can drive 40 foot artics, hovercrafts and JCB type machines ALL £ 5.00 each.

We will have a template of the tickets so we can print off as many as you guys need. http://www.p1woc.co.uk/forums/images.../001_smile.gif

No queues, ample parking and easy to get to.

(This is classed as a "Private Event". Due the insurance matters regarding rides in cars it can not be advertised to invite the general public)



Ok, I think this should do for the moment. If you like to come along, please just put your name on the list. Would be nice to have you with us again. http://www.p1woc.co.uk/forums/images.../001_smile.gif

As I`m off that Saturday it would be rude not to go again. Those considering this, it is a really good day out, with lots of cars to drool over and pay your £5 to experience a ride in some fantastic cars and all for a great cause.:doubleup:

Forgot to add you can take your own car on track providing you have a paying passenger :ok:

Was a good day last year, won't know if i'm free until nearer the time though

Hope you can make it Ian :ok:

Would love another ride in the beast if you were thinking of going on track again? :yeah:

So do i

Well it would be rude not to, i might know where the track is this time lol

Nice one, lads. :ok: :)


Ooops, thanks for this, Steve. Good shout. :ok:Will add this to my first post. :)

Best day of the year by a country mile. Well worth the trip and I hope to be in attendance once more. Just got to book the day off :-)

Sounds great, Stu. :nod::ok:

Guys, I forgot to add a list for the people who would like to take others round the track in their cars. Done now. :) Also for people who haven't been there yet, the £5 or £10 donation are per car pass, not per person. :) (edited in my first post)

Hope that many turn up. Looking forward to it already. My favourite domestic day of the year! :-)

Great idea Kerstin. What do food banks accept, I'm guessing mainly tinned items? See you put pasta and rice also so will put a bit together for it.

Great idea, wife suggested toiletries ie. soap, toothpaste, deodorant and shower gel etc: :doubleup:

you can't eat them though?

@ Wagon_Si: Great you're joining us, Simon, and also many thanks for offering passenger laps. :doubleup: Looking forward to seeing you there. :yeah:


Nice one, lads. :doubleup: I'll ask Anna what items are accepted. Will be back. :)

No probs, it maybe in the Scoob or maybe the Golf R32 if ok.

That's fine, Simon. Scoobies are preferred as it will be the Scooby gate where you start from, but if you can't bring it, the R32 will be fine, too. :ok: :)

ok will try to bring the Scoob.

This would be fab, Simon. :doubleup:

Just had a reply from Anna, lads. She wrote dried goods such as rice, pasta, tea, toiletries such as soap can be be either bar or liquid, also toilet rolls, shower gel even nappies. Tinned tomatoes, soup, beans, hot dogs, tinned vegs, tinned puddings like rice, fruit are all gladly accepted.

Anything that is basic food shopping :- tinned /packet that is well in date
Nothing that is frozen fresh or has a short life span. :)

This sounds like an epic day out ,, gotta check my calender but sounds like a bit of me

__________________

I can confirm i able to make this, may even take the car out again :)

That's fab, Ian. :doubleup: Have put you on the list for passenger laps. Hope that's ok for you. :-) xx

:ok:

I have talked to Chris Buckler about the procedures of this year and he told me it will be the same as last year, guys. So here goes a bit more info of the day, most of all for the guys who haven't been there before. http://www.p1woc.co.uk/forums/images.../001_smile.gif

STAND PASS INFO

Clive (Skullfudge) will kindly print out the passes for us again. http://www.p1woc.co.uk/forums/images...s/thumbup1.gif As stated in the first post of this thread, entry for car clubs is free but a donation of £5 or £10 is requested which I will collect again when I give you your passes and will then hand it over to Chris Buckler.

How to get your passes:

- in hotel or
- at the gate at Bruntingthorpe Airfield (postcode LE17 5QS) at 8 am on Saturday morning or
- you can drive to the Shell petrol station at Coventry Road near Broughton Astley (postcode LE9 6QD), fill up with V Power then go across the road and wait in the pub car-park, where we need to leave at approx 7 20am to be at the airfield at 8 am.


OUT ON TRACK

You are welcome to take your own cars around for one lap or as many as you want but you will need a passenger that has paid £5.00 for the lap. You will be tugged by the event organisers if they see a driver only in a car.

You can't stay out on track for multi laps. You can only do one lap at a time, then drive into the large pit area where many public will be lined up to jump in. The public would have already paid a fiver.

Drive at your own pace as it's not a race. Helmets are an option but not compulsory.

You will also need a special ticket / pass to allow you to go on track driving your own car.
These passes can be shared between the lads who offer passenger rides as they must be evident when out on track. There will be plenty available.

There will be a drivers meeting at 8 30am. A few of you guys need to go to that and then pass the info to everyone else although most of you know the rules by now.


RIDES AS A PASSENGER

If you would prefer to leave your car on the stand all day and jump in other cars as a passenger that is fine and no problem at all.

You will find the pits are extremely busy all day, and you can jump in any car of your choice (for a fiver). Helmets are an option but not compulsory.



ATTRACTIONS

There are many other attractions going on all day what you can participate in:

4x4 off road motors that are giving rides ,full size 40 foot Asda trucks you can drive and several other things.
There is normally something going on in the sky for a large chunk of the day from stunt displays - Spitfires to wing walkers.

MUNCH

All food & drink is non profitable so the prices are less than you would normally pay and it's not cheap stuff.

KIDS

There are many activities for all ages of children. ASDA do base this single day event on the whole family.


NOT OPEN TO THE PUBLIC

As mentioned before this event is "invite only". It's not advertised to the public anywhere.

Anyone else wants to join us, guys? :)

Sorry Kerstin but i'm not gonna be able to make this now as i'm having a long weekend away i Wales :hurrah:

Awww, that's a right shame, Ian. :( Anyway, thanks for letting me know. :ok: Wishing you a fantastic weekend in Wales. :hurrah::D xx

Looking forward to it always a great day out this one

Can I ask what time people are getting there? And do we need the passes to get in? Thanks Paul.

Hi Paul, they usually meet in the car park across the road from the Shell garage, have copied over Kerstins `how to get passes` :five:

How to get your passes:

- in hotel or
- at the gate at Bruntingthorpe Airfield (postcode LE17 5QS) at 8 am on Saturday morning or
- you can drive to the Shell petrol station at Coventry Road near Broughton Astley (postcode LE9 6QD), fill up with V Power then go across the road and wait in the pub car-park, where we need to leave at approx 7 20am to be at the airfield at 8 am.

All the info in kerstin's post above!!

Thanks I actually looked twice for info, been a long hot day driving the buses.:drive:

Same as the last two years then mate, the dreaded 3:30am start!

I was so up for this but cannot make it anymore : ( ; (

Sorry for my late reply, lads, it's a bit manic at the moment. :oops: :) And thanks for pointing Paul in the right direction. :ok::)


No worries, Paul. :) If you have any more questions, just fire away. :)

Or you stay in the hotel with us on Friday, Stu. ;) :D It's a lovely one. :ok: :)

That's a right shame, Chris. :( I'm gutted for you. :( Oh well, maybe next year. :)

Looks like I will have to bring the golf r32 instead of scoop if ok. Just haven't had time to sort car out.

Like I said, Simon, Scoobies are preferred because it's the Scooby gate where the laps start. But of course you can bring the Golf R32 if you can't get the Scooby ready. :) Are you still offering laps? :)

Yeah still offering laps.

Nice one, Simon. :ok::)
