That's a pity. I sort of think that general meet ups are for the dedicated - need to have some other attraction too.

The proposed program is based on the proposed program Brendan posted originally. Killian has the details, but off the top of my head there will be a meeting in Mullingar early 2004, with events such as a track day, drives (the Burren, Wicklow, etc.) and a rolling road session.

OK Then;
Rolling Road / Basic Tech Training will be held in March 20th next in Enfield, Co. Meath @ Westward Precision Engineering.

Rolling Road:There will be space for 25 cars so provisionally book early with me (bmw@kbannon.com).
Between setup etc. it will be 20-30 mins per car.
Tea & coffee will be provided AFAIK but you sort out your own lunch.
Prices will be approx €50 to 60 - I will confirm towards the date. Places will be strictly limited to BMWs and depending on numbers may be restricted to one car per BMWCCGB member.

Tech Training: To give people a slight understanding on car maintenance we hope to have a few BMW Specialists & experts on hand to show you the ins & outs of your motor, and given that there is no cost for this it is highly recommended.
If people have special requests (changing brake pads, etc.) on this topic please email me.

The rolling road is where your care will be put on a set of rollers. The car is subjected to a number of conditions with the result showing the power output in printout form of your car i.e. determine the bhp and toruque of the car and see if the engine amangement system is running well.

It looks extremely likely that we will not be holding another Better Driving (Track) Day on a Saturday in Mondello Park in 2004 as their motorsport calenday is booked solid. They have early and late season dates but these will be running on rallycross prepared (& used) tracks and the weather is likely to be brutal 
Would people be interested in a weekday event in Mondello (Friday?) or one in Kirkistown (www.marshalspost.com/circuit/9.html) next April (if it is available)? [the link contains sone excellent marshalling notes (these guys know the track v. well!)]

If more than 5 come back to me on one or the other within the next week (to give me an idea) then I'll book it.
K.

K,

The Scottish region are still planning a visit to Knockhill in 2004. Provisional date is 9/10/04 - fuller details will be on the Scottish website as they are confirmed by Knockhill. Cost looks to be about £100.

We'd be delighted to see some of you folks over here if you could make it

Cheers,

Duncan
