I hate you, I hate you, I hate you, I hate you, I hate you, etc, etc, etc!!! Save a passenger ride for me at about 4pm - should (hopefully) be there by then (I'll bring a tow-rope too, in case you break it!!! ) |

Killian, If you have "pay on the day" Isn't there a risk of a lower attendance, if people don't have to commit until the last minute ? Also doesn't it give the organisers a better idea of how many will be there, and plan accordingly ? I have the BMW entry form ready to send, but what method would you prefer we used ?

There is no point getting people to commit by paying up front as with every track day the numbers always appear low but people come out of the woodwork on the day.
I don't know why but I cannot assume that every member lives on the forum like most of us and may not be aware of the event until the night before. TBH, I reckon there will be enough but not too many. I really amn't worrying about it. As for what method, contact Gerry in the office and she will look after you. |

Track time should begin at 2pm. Prior to this all drivers must sign in and then attend the briefing (even if you sat through one before). I would recommend not being later than about 1:15.

Well Lads, The M3 is still running after the weekend, so I'll be up for the BDD on Saturday. Looking forward to putting some faces to the names and getting a few miles under my belt in the new car!! Denis |

As it takes some considerable time to process drivers and passengers - and to avoid the resultant delays, I'd suggest that people arrive before 1pm. Part of the problem at the last BDD was that people were still checking in when the induction was due to start. Mondello will not start induction until all drivers are available and this delays everything else. Since the weather appears to be good for the weekend, the turnout could be high - so get there early! |

Killian Doyle from the Irish Times (Emissions column in the ednesday Motoring supplement) has just confirmed that he will be along. He won't be driving himself, but will be there as a passenger. He drives an e30 316 himself (which he has refered to as the Bavarian Princess), and his wife (I think) has an e30 Touring. EDIT: Just realised that I forgot to tell him to bring a helmet, so if anyone has a spare one they could bring along, would it be possible to borrow it for him..? Thanks. Edited by Fey! |

Unfortunately leaving the 318iS in Cork, but I'm heading up with TJ on Saturday. Anyone want to scare the life out of me in your passenger seat? PM me if you are willing. Also, going to bring up the camcorder and am trying to figure out a way to fasten it to the car to make it "Mondello legal". Any ideas? Edited by Simatic |

Could take you out in the track car, either EoinO or myself should look after ya. Could fasten the camera to the roll cage. Would be good and secure on that. Sure we'll talk Saturday over breakfast |

hi guys, signed on / paid for this by phone yesterday, just a few quick questions...do you need to have a receipt, to show proof of purchase on the day, or i take it someone will have a master list of people that have pre-booked? how close is the nearest petrol station to mondello, and could someone give me an idea whereabouts it is in relation to the main entrance. oh, assuming it won't have super unleaded, would i be better to fill the tank with super in dublin on the way out? anybody fancy taking a mondello novice out for a few taster laps early on just so i can learn the basic corners etc? this would be really appreciated.
many thx, justin |

Justin, A few of us will be meeting on the N4 if you want to hook up [ see Lucan to Mondello Convoy].
I will have a list of all club members and also those who have paid up, etc. There will be no shortage of assistance from folk but I will be glad to help show you the lines, etc. Edited by kbannon |

Don't have easy access to Super unleaded in this part of the country so it might just have to be regular unleaded unless someone can help out Justin on his way down as to pertol stations that stock the stuff on his route to Mondello |
