Ten of the Best IV Entrants

Ok folks, the entry forms have to be in before the 3rd July, so if your name is on this list I suggest you get them out the door sharpish :)

 

The Entry Form

 

If you all recall I asked people to PM me regarding entry to this year's Ten of the Best, and I've had a reasonable level of response - an initial flurry of the usual suspects and a couple of latecomers. Those that put their name down the same day I put up the first post are mostly proven cars with a damn good chance they will show up and compete come hell or high water. So they are in:

 

Leon Green (tuner)

Kev Huntley (tuner)

Terry Saunders (privateer)

The Vortex power car of doom (tuner)

Matt Harwood (privateer)

Christian Doran (privateer)

Me (privateer)

 

Awaiting confirmation he is free that day is:

Paul Whiffin (tuner)

 

A late arrival:

Dave Cumming (you know him as SecondJump) (privateer)

 

That leaves us one space, plus two reserves if anyone is interested on being on standby should anyone drop out.

Now, not that I'm cynical but, :D before you lovely people kick off about "this car is faster and has done a 10.2 and it should be there" :blahblah: :D bear in mind that most of the people above have a genuine enthusiasm for this event and can be pretty much guaranteed to show, and because of this made sure they got their names in on day one. Everyone was notified at the same time in the original post and if people wanted to participate they could have PMd me at any time. I was going to be wholly fair about it but as only 9 people got involved, I figure they are all in, no need to fight for spaces :)

 

So - who wants that last space... :eyebrows:

and whose is "The Vortex power car of doom" is that Dude? If not where's his entry?

 

 

I would love to do it but my car wouldn't have a high enough spec to make the cut. I'd give it a bloody good try though. I'd be happy to be last reserve or something like that. I'm definitely going anyway, got the hotel booked already. (Thanks Branners)

There is a great possiblity that Dude may not be there to run his car ( we live in hope that he will) which in my eyes is a great shame > http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=40298 Hence there is no entry for him.

 

Someone may be kind enough to run his car for him ONLY if he wishes us to and if he asks ...at the moment he is making a choice whether to sell it or not.

I have had an entry request from Gavin L which is being seriously considered. It's a shame about Dude, but he is on special invite anyway and isn't included in our ten places so if things work out at the last minute he can still participate.

 

Monkey - I'm suprised as well. I was expecting a big scrum for places, but hey, it's made my life easier, I don't have to be harsh on anyone who's asked to run :D

 

The Vortex Power Car of Doom is what you might call a demonstrator car for the Vortex boys.

 

This "Me" person is no-one to worry about ;)

Oh, can I just add that those on the list need to get their entry forms in sooner rather than later, and please post up here or PM me when you've done it so I can keep us and the organisers up to date!

can those with their names down get a wriggle on, Chris Mann is getting jumpy about the amount of spaces we have that havent been paid for, last time he did that we lost spaces. Get those forms in this week or expect to lose your space.

 

Gavin L ran a 12.6 at Pod today btw so thats a slightly more respectible time than before so his name is on the list.

Can I remind everyone that Chris Mann needs the forms by 3rd July. Not posted to him on that day, but actually with him. Otherwise the place disappears and that's that. I only know of about three people who have done the form so far, so come on :)
