Hello all......Below is the latest news letter from John.......You will see the rates for the hotel so if you are staying I would get in early...
SATURDAY 10th AUGUST 2013
SAT NAVS: BATH LANE BRUNTINGTHORPE
On Your M arks has always been about seeing and doing the unusual, below is the list of confirmed items for this years show and we hope we have kept up that genre of the unusual.
First the bad news
It is with great regret that we will have to change the entry donation per car to £10.
The cost of everything has gone through the roof and we have managed to keep the price down for the last twelve years. Everything else inside the show is still based on a £5 note.
Now the good news
We will be at our usual venue, Bruntingthorpe Proving Ground, Leicestershire. This has been our 'home' for the past 12 years and is ideally suited for the type of day we organise.
By request from Bruntingthorpe, we have been asked to move our day from a Sunday to a Saturday because of local environmental noise issues.
The hotel deal.
We have confirmed our usual special deal at the Hinckley Island 4 star Hotel for just £55 per night per double room and twin(this year) for 2 with breakfast (from 06,30) included , that’s only £27.50 each, for the 9th August, and the same deal for the 10th and 11th August 2013.
If anyone does want to take advantage of this fantastic deal, all you have to do when booking (Telephone 01455 631122) is quote our reference 'OYM13' and you will get the £55 rate.
Just across the round about there are 2 local pubs, the Hinckley Knight and the Three Pots Harvester where you can get good quality beer and food at a very reasonable price.
On Your Marks charities
Well we must be mad but we are going to do it all again on the Saturday 10th aug 2013 at Bruntingthorpe in Leicestershire, and this year we will be doing the show for "Orchid “ the cancer charity. And we will also be supporting some children’s cancer charities at the show as well.
www.on-your-marks.info
Our WEBSITE is up and running so you can look for all the information you might need, such as maps and information on the day. There is also a face book page, just type in On Your Marks and you should get to it.
Why we do it?
On Your Marks started twelve years ago, we had a driver called Mark Hickingbottom, who was dying of lymphatic cancer after serving his country in the first gulf war, we approached the owner of Bruntingthorpe (David Walton) and asked if we could have a day with some trucks and a few cars on the proving ground, and he said yes. This went very well and we made £7,500 for his family but unfortunately Mark died a week before the event.
The car clubs that came on the day asked if we could carry on with the event, so we approached his family and asked if we could do the day in his memory and use his name,
Twelve years down the line we have raised over £270,000+ for cancer charities, and if you add the money the charities have made on the day we must be well over £300,000, and we now get
20,000 colleagues, friends and family there on the day. An indication on how big” On Your Marks "is now, on the first year we put up 350 metres of plastic safety fencing, well this year we have just ordered 6,100 metres of steel safety fencing that’s 6.1 kilometres’.
We insist that the charities are there on the day and that some of the sick children can hopefully attend , then at 14.00 on the day we open a special Pit for them and call all the special cars in for them to get in and go around the track for free and their parents and siblings. This is very special and is the pay back for all the hard work that Chris and myself put in, we both walk away with a tear in our eyes,
The companies that help us put this on, and the deal is that their employees can come as well and enjoy the day are,
N.F.T. will be supplying two trucks to go on the track with instructors.
Fresh link support us with two trucks to go on the track with instructors.
Jungheinrich they supply us two forklifts for the putout and the uplift which takes us four days to put up and two days to take down.
Malcolm's transport they supply us a rough terrain forklift (JCB).
Cotts U.K... They supply a trailer of almost out of date pop to sell to colleagues on the day (otherwise they would put it into the landfill).
Volvo UK they supply the Show trailer that fronts the Asda National Driver of the Year and new trucks for you to drive at the show.
Scania UK they supply the Show trailer that fronts the Asda National Driver of the Year and new trucks for you to drive at the show.
Mercedes .uk will be bringing along a brand new truck with six seats so some families can go out on the track together.
Apex plant supply a mini 4x4 j.c.b for us to get about on.
M.T.S. group supply 4 golf buggy’s for us to get around on quickly.

Radio Controlled Model Tank Display
Marvel at these mammoth models, and wonder how long it took to make them and how much they would cost to make , some of them are worth over £6,000 and most of these modellers will bring 4 or 5 of these fantastic models to the show this year.
Asda Fork Truck Driver of the year.
Drivers will be battling it out, lifting things up and down, and trying to drive through a devious course set by cunning people.
Asda lorry driver of the year.
Lorry drivers from all around the county from all our depots will be driving and testing their skills in a very difficult manoeuvring course set by Scania Trucks professionals.

Other events to run all-day.
The radio control boat club will be doing their thing; there will be a fun fair with adult rides, and, mini motto’s, mini quads and other events running all day.
