Why do we need allocated time slots?

 

Presumably there will be some people who want to run all day, and others who will just want to do a few. If the weather is good, and we suffer no breakages (touch wood) then time slots shouldn't really be required - people would simply need to queue up as and when they wanted to run. The most cars you're going to have in front of you is 49, meaning a maximum waiting time of about 20 minutes between runs if everyone wants to run all the time. Their current system seems to work pretty well on RWYB days with no allocated time slots with alot more than 100 cars.

 

You're also removing any fun little grudge matches that could arise throughout the day from someone running significantly quicker than they thought they would.

 

Personally I don't like the idea of thrashing the hell out of mine serveral times in a short space of time to fit in a time slot either...

 

This is exactly how we do it at Elvington and it is great fun. You fit in 20 runs plus and certain people start competing. For one run there will be 12 people queing and the next there will be two waiting. Much more fun than RWYB events at Santa Pod sitting in your car the whole day for 3 runs

we are discussing the finer points on how to run the event and should have more details shortly.

 

Can I just remind everybody that if you sign up to this and pay your money and it gets rained off we cannot refund the money. Its a chance we have to take as they wont budge on that part of it.

Any chance of an 'essential info' thread Branners? Something locked so it doesn't clog with chat/questions and that means you don't have to wade through hundreds of posts only to inevitably miss a vital peice of info... something that has everything JAE virgins (like me) should know? :)

 

Basic stuff like when, where, if there are any club convoys/photoshoots, how & when to get tickets, camping arrangements, etc, etc... :thumbs:

As soon as we've sorted it all out we'll get an info thread created and will start selling tickets. There's just so much 'extra' stuff like security, catering, insurance etc etc that needs to be sorted first. :(

 

I'm also still not happy that once this event is paid for you could all turn up and, if it's raining, Santa Pod could deem it unsafe to use the track and everyone loses their money! No refunds even if we can't use the track. We may have to take the risk but I'd like to keep pushing them for some more reasonable terms.

Indeed, there will be a nice clear thread about all those areas. I just want to make sure we have all the questions answered before we do that post.

lol, oooops sorry guys I meant to post that in the JAE thread (that will teach me to have lots of windows open at once), but it also applies here I guess! Thanks for the answer - can we also have a similar info pack for JAE? Pretty please :)

Yeah that seems a little off! :rolleyes:

At least it's in capable hands :)
