Neil, I'm "more likely", if not quite "definite" yet (as discussed by 'phone)....so 2 related questions:

1 - To you - what time's the BBB, and are there still spaces for that?
2 - To David - are you travelling down in the morning (unlikely), or the night before?

Hi Steve,
I will be driving down early Friday leaving home at 0600ish so crossing the Manchester/Warrington line about 1000ish. Heading for south of Bristol to stay overnight. A bit early for you i suspect if we were thinking of joining ina convoy of two?

Default ADI signing on for track driving - commence 08:30

Hi all,

My joining instructions recommend "arriving 8am onwards for signing-on, the briefing sessions will commence at 08:30am in the Stratford Centre. The first laps will start at 9am."

If BBB is from 07:30 to 08:30 and we need 30 mins to get to circuit does that leave enough time for 09:00 laps? As a newby, just checking with those who have previous experience, since we have booked 6 track sessions. Subject to that, pleased to confirm 2 for BBB (Richard and Ben). Can you give us post code for Bolingbroke Arms please.

Cheers

Richardracer

Hi Richard
From past experience people arriving etc and chatting means we don't get breakfast under way until just before 8am quite often, and then leave at 08:30 to convoy 30 mins to the track arriving at about 9am or just after, so you would need to be there about 30-45 mins ahead of that.

Because you are staying at the Bolingbroke however, you may well be able to ask for brekkie for say 7am or worst case 730am sharp (speak to Jo the manager and she will let you know what they can do) so then you may be able to dash off to get there for say 8:15am and sign on and attend the briefing sessions from 8:30 to get on the track for 9am.

If you are in Swindon early enough on Friday evening let me know and I can either pop over and be sociable at the pub or even arrange some tickets to the local arts centre where there is a comedian on that evening, but I would need to know numbers to book tickets

Sorry Richard - I had in my mind that earlier you had said that you would be staying over the night before!

Anyways I spoke to Simon at the Pub yesterday evening and told him that you may want to have brekkie at say 07:30 sharp and that can be arranged so that you can say hi then eat and dash off if you wish? Let me know either way for numbers etc.
