Rich.2211 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 I'm glad they have seen sense and arranged this at a proper venue. If it isn't snowing or raining then I would definitely like to attend (albeit not in the Supra) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham1984 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 I'm up for this if the weather is good The last three years predict that won't be the case, Santa Pod can be bad enough as it is for wind let along if it is still zero degree's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gdog1989 Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 I got to burn some clutch and a picture then I also had the swimming lessons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 I would love to attend but I can see this being a bit of a nightmare due to the numbers involved. I wouldn't have though Santa Pod could handle more than 1K cars, never mind 11K. H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 (edited) I would love to attend but I can see this being a bit of a nightmare due to the numbers involved. I wouldn't have though Santa Pod could handle more than 1K cars, never mind 11K. H. They were handling 3,500 attendees at events over 2 decades ago, and it's come a long way since then. However, the traffic management system always lets it down at the end of the day and it can take a lifetime to leave the site.

I have only been there once and it didn't strike me as a massive place. It would be nice to see how many Supes are going. H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

safcdixon Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 11 thousand cars? I think il pass, this will be an absolute nightmere imo, the idiots will be out on a day trip for certain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike33 Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Can we organise a convoy from the south like we did for the 20th anniversary! I spoke to the mrs she's up for this and also she can push if I get stuck If I get stuck in the snow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 In 2011 Japfest at Castle Coombe had over 15,000 people attend so i'd have thought you could easily halve the number of cars that went and that was pretty chaotic getting in and out with several entrances & exits. A properly organised event is required in my opinion and done further into the year to remove the risk of snow making it a farce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dude Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Ok. I have only been there once and it didn't strike me as a massive place. It would be nice to see how many Supes are going. H. I think 50K plus people go for Bug Jam !!!! However if 11,000 sign up for RWYB the Q might be quite long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
