Area Representative Andrew Gilbert Posted April 3, 2021 Area Representative Share Posted April 3, 2021 I really fancy this but traveling back from Exeter on the saturday so may be a tad tired...Plus I'm waiting on my licence to be received, so do I book or wait to see if I get into the 110 max figure?

pete_h Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 I'd book if you can. If you change your mind I'm sure it will be oversubscribed so you can probably get a refund. I've always wanted to have a go at Hethel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Support Team Shaun_E Posted April 13, 2021 Support Team Share Posted April 13, 2021 Are we supposed to have paid yet? The email confirmation I received said "Don't pay until we tell you to" and I haven't had another email to say "Please pay" but some competitors are shown as already paid! I'm confused Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Support Team andy_harries Posted April 13, 2021 Support Team Share Posted April 13, 2021 Given there are 22 paid and 85 not, I expect most are in your situation (as am I).If I haven't heard anything I'll probably pay on Thursday just in case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comp Sec Posted April 15, 2021 Author Share Posted April 15, 2021 I have just spoken to the organisers and the event is definitely going ahead, payment requests will go out today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete_h Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Can anyone recommend a campsite? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Support Team Shaun_E Posted April 15, 2021 Support Team Share Posted April 15, 2021 Great news - thanks Graham.@Pete - I've just booked in here: https://www.chestnutscampsite.co.uk/ but note they don't have any facilities open and there is no electric hookup. It's basically one big field. I think Chris and Matt Bramall have stayed there before. When I booked I asked and they can still fit a few more in. We stayed at the Norwich Camping and Caravanning club site last time we went but they lock the gates at night and don't open them until 07:00 which meant we were a bit rushed getting set-up in the paddock.

Comp Sec Posted April 15, 2021 Author Share Posted April 15, 2021 Everybody should have received their payment request now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete_h Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Thanks Shaun. It would just be a tent small enough to fit in the Caterham :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Support Team Shaun_E Posted April 20, 2021 Support Team Share Posted April 20, 2021 I got a confirmation of receipt of payment email today which states that my entry is accepted. No other info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete_h Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 I would assume that our competition numbers are the ones already assigned? If not, I may have a problem as I only have those numbers :-)Good news is the car passed its MoT :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Area Representative Andrew Gilbert Posted April 21, 2021 Area Representative Share Posted April 21, 2021 yes mine says entry # 98 so I'm thinking that is my car number...well done on the mot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete_h Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 I was thinking the numbers assigned in our comp by Graham? I.e 571 for me. I think there was an email saying the entry number is not your car number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete_h Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 This is from the email: PLEASE NOTE: up to this point our automated admin system has allocated you an entry number on a “first come” basis temporarily. This is NOT your competition number. Upon our closing date, we will sort everybody into an Entry List by class with competition numbers allocated according to the starting order. We will send you the sorted Entry List with your Final Instructions, so you know the correct numbers to stick on your car. I've asked them about this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comp Sec Posted April 21, 2021 Author Share Posted April 21, 2021 Our numbers should be your allocated championship number. The organisers have a list.Andrew, you are not in our championship so your number will be allocated by the organisers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete_h Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Just had an email back from Pete at Hethel and he is working on the final instructions, and we will get a link to the online noticeboard. We should be able to use our L7C numbers, which is great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Area Representative Andrew Gilbert Posted April 22, 2021 Area Representative Share Posted April 22, 2021 I went direct via the link and not through the club. I'll send an email shortly to ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
