Bring whatever you like... we'll stick to the three track rule for any given set up so we can get through as much kit as possible.

July looking best at the moment.
Also add venue has no steps or obstacles and cars can be parked close by so no problems getting stuff in or out.

That's a shame Ken, enough to have me thinking August could be better to have you and Rossman attend.Originally Posted by Qwin

If we went with August would anyone who's said they can attend in July not make the other date.
Appreciate its not going to be possible to please everybody but I'll try.
