Grand Prix party?

[conaero]

How do you guys fancy meeting up for the first GP?

I don't know the date or time but it might be fun?

Bit of lunch and some banter, I take it Ace don't have screen?

 

[ENZ525]

Good idea for an F1 meet, might have to wait for one nearer to home though Matt...
First one is W/e 17/18th March in Melbourne, race starts at 06:00...

Good idea for an F1 meet, might have to wait for one nearer to home though Matt...

Ok, I bet there is a pub open somewhere, Ill have a look.

So, up at 4am on a crisp Sunday morning, meet in the dawn and had a blast on the empty roads to the venue, sounds like a great idea.

 

[dem maser]

i could do that...ill vbe up for it...the spain GP is looking little better for time but thats in may

 

[conaero]

I found this, £20 a ticket, english breakfast and unlimited tea, coffee and juice:

[conaero]

[dem maser]

[lozcb]

How do you guys fancy meeting up for the first GP?

I don't know the date or time but it might be fun?

Bit of lunch and some banter, I take it Ace don't have screen?

i take it you mean meeting up ata pub with a screen type meet , tho happy to do a bit of distance to meet at any of the north european circuits

regards loz

 

[dem maser]

a pub meet would be good...if we do it in may that could be the summer meet, bbq, music.....

 

[conaero]

Not a bad shout that Dem. BBQ and a race, maybe the one before Le Mans Classics (British GP) so we can spend 2 consecutive together?

Its a shame Ace dont have Sky Sports, I take it they dont?

 

[dem maser]

Thats the idea matt...a summer meet with GP on also.....
Shall i look into pubs showing it with a big car park and bbq??

I think the spain one in kay is best but will look into british GP also...

 

[Dan!]

I could offer my garden and big HD telly for one of the summer races. Could accommodate 15+ cars, bring your own deck chair.
Get a hog roast, £15 each or something, pub down the road...? Camping space available for those wanting a drinkies.

Hmm, this has the makings of a festival...

 

[philw696]

I will book a pitch Dan sounding good already.
Phil.
