steb9780 Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Can't wait for this now. A question to the bloke with the local knowledge above. I got off the motorway with some obviously local skylines. They took me down a load of backroads. We arrived at the gate from the opposite direction to all the other hundreds of cars queuing. Any idea were we might have got off the motorway etc. We just drove straight in as we had right of way no queues etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 I'd come off the A64 at the A19 and head south. Then the A163 heading for Highfield. Then hang a left onto the B1228 and that will lead you to Elvington so that you turn left into the airfield. Job done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 I'd set off early, keep going on the M62, come off at Howden and enjoy the great roads that lead to Elvington from that direction - slightly longer but fun, might be worth having sat nav for that one though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steb9780 Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Cheers for the advice guys, it was great coming in that way last time. We just drove straight in. Whilst my friends (who I had got split up from) came in via satnav and sat in the queue for half an hour. And one of the girls even managed to smash her Subaru up in the queue.

Gaz Walker Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 I just got the final entry list through, some interesting stuff on there again, I can't wait to see the RS200 in action as well as a few other cars like the entire Turbosports team and the Rolls Royce Bedford van looks fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 I got so excited by the RS200 that I didn't see Pat's son Liam listed in the Fiesta - another absolute monster! 2 Rallycross Supercar class cars should be a lot of fun to watch, the Fiesta does 0-100 in about 5 seconds I believe. http://www.ianhardy.net/gallery/main.php/d/70498-2/rallycross_superprix_2007_0799.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tDR Posted July 24, 2008 Author Share Posted July 24, 2008 Yep, it's annoying. 6 months + just isn't enough time to have a car ready it would seem Good luck to the guys above who are going to do as promised and represent the club Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Is there anyone going to this that isn't competing? Is was expecting to be away while it was on but instead I find myself sat at home and thinking of going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbie Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 Best of luck to the competitors and I hope everyone involved has good day. I wish I'd been in a position to go. For months all is well and the next:blink: Life does have a habit of ruining all best made plans an all that! The best time I managed last year was a 10.9, 11 0verall and 5th in class on the 1/4, on a completely stock engine with a few choice bolt ons;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iam the good looking one LOL.. Jays the fat one !!!! Will do - just about to head down nearby for the weekend I'll find a local B&Q and get a gazebo of some description along with some fold up chairs and some BBQ meat / rolls etc. - better than paying TOTB catering prices for rotten food! May even persuade the mrs. into doing some cooking Don't suppose any of our event organiser types are going along and can bring a club banner or two? Cheers, Brian.
