[Craig]

Right, turns put I've double booked myself :idunno: .....

I'll be there in the morning but gotta go home about 1 so I can go to another engagement at 2 ;)

[MINIme:)]

Can you tell me what the day entails in a bit more detail as I've never been? ;) what time does it start/finish, what is parking like and how much will the entry cost, food available to buy or take your own etc. Exposed / sheltered location - any cover? I hear there's a variety of racing including a bit of mini-ing :motoring:. Thank you!

OK, Qualifying normally starts from about 08:30hrs.... racing from about 10:30/11 depending on how many races they have on during the day.

Parking, this is anywhere round the track, we normally park down by the main straight.

Entry - normally £12 pp for SMRC meets like this one.

Food, take your own, or there is a restaurant or cafe where you can everything from rolls on bacon to a sit down meal. Prices are comparable to most fast food places.

Shelter..... :lol: your at Knockhill, it's always sunny :thud: There are sheds which give cover at Clarks and the Hairpin. The rest of the track, you are in the open.

Racing - Legends, MINI's, Fiestas, Formula Ford, Scottish Sports and Saloons, plus Classics Checkout more details at www.knockhill.com :thumbs up:

[MINIme:)]

thank you Craig :thumbs up:

[Craig]

thank you Craig :thumbs up:

Your welcome. ;)

I'm gutted I'm double booked as I'll miss 2 of the mini races :(

[ELFMAN]

I'm SO out of touch... :argh:
I'm a 'maybe' for this one, as I'm waiting to hear from friends who are trying to arrange shifts etc for a long-awaited get-together :beer:

[MINIme:)]

You have to come Euan - noone else will put up with my chat for a whole day ;) Plus the special convoy from the west needs your elfness.

[ELFMAN]

You have to come Euan - noone else will put up with my chat for a whole day ;)

Possibly not if I have a ragin' hangover... as old Clint would say "a man's gotta know his limitations"! :smilewinkgrin:

[MINIme:)]

I know you don't mean that really :nag: :shut up::idea: :shut up: :argh:

:smilewinkgrin:

[ELFMAN]

I know you don't mean that really :nag: :shut up::idea: :shut up: :argh: :smilewinkgrin:

You know Joanna, 'ELFMAN' in Chinese is 'Wan Big Lug' - all the better to hear you with :nag: :yes nod: :dizzy: :thud:

[MINIme:)]

:unsure: honestly can't remember and a quick scan through didn't find anything so I might have made this up....but did someone mention the possibility of a wee discount? :unsure: :arms:

is this a buy at the gate thing or a book in advance thing?

:bye:

[stoney]

I will be paying on the gate jo ;)

[Craig]

I have my season ticket ;)

[MINIme:)]

I will be paying on the gate jo ;)

ok :thumbs up:

any chance I can meet you en route Stoney, as I don't know where I'm going! :motoring:

[Evo2mini]

Put me down for this aswell please but will meet you up at Knockhill as coming up from borders so easier to go straight to forth bridge and up that way.

[ELFMAN]

I should know by tomorrow night whether I'm on for this or not - pal's shifts are all up in the air because of holidays etc... :argh:

[DarnShiv]

Can you add me to this please (might not have the Mini though:sad:)

Just a thought. I can bring the gazebo if you think we can use it? I am also happy to bring some bacon to feed us all if someone wants to get rolls and butter? Let me know.

[stoney]

That's you guys added ;)

[MINIme:)]

I don't see this affecting anyone but I might have a +1 ;)

oh i saw on the website it's £10 in advance or 12 at the gate in case anyone interested!

[stoney]

Jo how about Cumbernauld shell just off the M80 to meet say around 8:30 ish ?

[Neil and Lorna]

Yo Peeps

Planning on going on Sunday, first outing for our Countryman. :smilewinkgrin:

Will only be arriving in time for first race so will find you'z all somewhere. also coming up from the Borders.

Okay what to bring, shorts and tee shirt :cool:, or winter woollies:thud:, correction I'll bring both. Knockhill Weather :thumbs up:.

Neil and Lorna.

[Crombers]

Jings! Neil & Lorna, it's like an NMS reunion this Sunday :thumbs up:

[bodyshop23]

Will be there as well but not in Mini, will be in truck as transporting two of Team Sleigh racing minis but will look out for you lot.

Y'now, that comment makes me feel goosepunkely

Over the years there have been many many highlights,

.... the many legendary NMS runs over the years, Oxford x ? & not forgetting The Highland Odesseys....

.... but Silverstone 2009 for the big 50 party was for me THE highlight & the banter at the hotel over the two nights was just brill :smilewinkgrin:

We will see you on Sunday folks

[AndyP & Lenore]

Bummed we're gonna miss this but we're on next Sunday's run then the touring cars the Sunday after and we don't feel we can take three Sunday's in a row off. Have fun everyone.:thumbs up:

I'll remember and put in the zimmers for all these old folk turning up :thud: :thumbs up:

[Crombers]

As long as I get the 'fast' zimmer!!!..........

...... I know who I'll 'zim' in a minute ya fud!! :moonie: :thumbs up:

[MINIme:)]

Rob I was trying to find it on streetview ;) didn't find it yet!.... will PM you, prob tomorrow, I might have an EVEN better idea...

have we recruited that little elf? :p :motoring:

[stoney]

It's easy Jo and yep think elf is coming with me

[Craig]

As long as I get the 'fast' zimmer!!!..........

...... I know who I'll 'zim' in a minute ya fud!! :moonie: :thumbs up:

:lol: ;)

[ELFMAN]

I'm on for this now - out night before, but will take it easy-ish. I don't drink often these days, so 2 shandies and I'll probably fall asleep... Rock N' Roll eh?

Anyway, Stoney's very kindly going to let me be a 'GPassenger', which will remove any 'morning after blood/alcohol' worries. You know it makes sense folks!

Also, after getting my head burned to a crisp at the Scottish Car Show (next day I looked like a fat match), I'll be sporting my stunning 'Sun Cream and Daft Hat' combo - which will guarantee it'll be p*ss*ng down all day.

See you on Sunday.

- - - Updated - - -


It's easy Jo and yep think elf is coming with me

JO - It IS dead easy to find the Shell place - you pass it on the M/Way before Castle Cary arches. I can find it, and I'm totally useless :argh:

[DarnShiv]

Anybody heading up from Fife or Edinburgh want to meet up?

[MINIme:)]

Ohhhhh the one that's actually ON the M80? Thought you meant I should take the cumbernauld turn off and it was there somewhere.

Can manage that no bother ;)

Hoping that if my pal comes I can somehow persuade him to get to somewhere handy or go halfs on a taxi to mine as he lives in pollockshields which would be a 30mile round trip to get him - in the wrong direction! And early :frown: I don't do early very well.

Next question is - anyone patient enough to not leave me too far behind on your blast up to the track from the kincardine bridge meeting place - sounds like a road you guys love and I will not be fast on! Or at least stop and wait for me if there's a turning! It will be interesting to see how stressful I find it being left for dust ;)

last question (for now :smilewinkgrin: ) is it worth taking a folding chair or do you need to stand to see what's going on?
;)

[Big Gordy]

I don't mind running 'tail gunner' to keep everyone right Jo :smilewinkgrin:
A deck chair would be handy as there isn't that many seats (unless you stay at the hairpin) Standing is advisable while watching the racing tho :thumbs up:

[Crombers]

Tailgunner my ar$e, you & I are going for our usual.......Playminifest :cool:

Apologies MiniMe, we will make sure somebody sweeps up at the back BUT not Big Gordy!
:thumbs up:

[MINIme:)]

no bother ;) - sounds like you guys are long overdue a 'catch up'!

[Big Gordy]

Yeh....last time I saw Crombers was 2010 Boness hill climb.

And Robsco I may add.

[T5LLC]

I forgot, till yesterday may I add (oops) that it is my friends 21st party tonight so I won't be able to make this tomorrow :( don't want to risk still having drink in my system etc.. Looking set to be good weather so beware of the Knockhill tan.. Wind makes you forget and you end up burnt to a crisp lol! Enjoy :) :)

[MINIme:)]

cool ok Leanne will get the aerial next week :thumbs up: have a good night out m'dear :)

[Craig]

You still need yer sticker young lady !!

[Craig]

Well that's the car packed for tomorrow....

NMS merchandise ..... Check
Brolly......... Check
Folding Seat........ Check
Waterproof Hat......... Check

Yeah, I have seen the forecast but knockhill has its own weather system ;)

[Gismo]

Well that's the car packed for tomorrow....

NMS merchandise ..... Check:thumbs up:

[MINIme:)]

Craig you're organised! I was just contemplating whether to give mine a little wash.
Is it a pretty exposed location then?

- - - Updated - - -

you don't have tax disc holders without a logo do you?

[Craig]

It's on the top of a hill so it's either scorchio and you leave looking like a balechia beacon, or the wind and rain make you look like a drowned rat :thumbs up:

I don't have any tax disc holders without the logo, but why would you want that :confused:

[MINIme:)]

you know why :p I just want a plain one ;)

[Crombers]

Ok peeps,

Bed - just going
Petroleum - need some
Coffee - flask located
Chairs - in garage (i think)
MINI - in garage (i know)

Looking forward to tomorrow, it's been a while :thumbs up:

[MINIme:)]

flask - good idea.

Bed - also a good idea. I've got into a really bad habit of starting to paint walls at about 11.30 - 12pm ;) Finished that one now!

Stoney / Elf - remind me to get cash at the shell garage ;) otherwise I'll hold you personally responsible and will probably need to try and get you to buy me lunch. And pay my entrance fee :thumbs up:
see you about half 8 - I can picture a garage, (hopefully it's the same one you're picturing) but I can't rem how far along it is. Fingers crossed.

[DarnShiv]

Great to meet up with everyone today. Company and weather were superb. Face a tad burnt:rolleyes:

[stoney]

Fantastic day had with Nms once again nice to see some new and old faces see most of u next week ;)

[Craig]

Enjoyed my few hours up there ;). Great to see everyone ! Looking forward to my fish supper next Sunday ;)

[ELFMAN]

That was a good day out! I remembered my sun cream and daft hat, so only mildly toasted today - much like my fish in the canteen... they gave me a new one though (cooked this time), and the CHIPS (quiet Joanna) were tasty.

Really nice to see everybody today, especially those who have been 'Missing In Action' for so long! Most enjoyable to catch up, and Neil & Lorna's chair saved my back and legs in the afternoon. Good to meet a couple of 'New Faces' too - hopefully we didn't put you off. Oh, and the racing was pretty good as well!

Laugh on the way home when a certain very lovely black and shiny Maserati Quattroporte foolishly 'underestimated the alacrity' of Stoney and the GP when negotiating a certain long tightening right-hand bend and motorway slip road. They were under the impression that they could dispatch the wee motor with disdainful ease. They were sadly mistaken. Maserati 0, GP 1. Another golden moment for 'TEAM GP' on the final day of the Olympics!

All in all, a fine day. See you next Sunday for the Edinburgh to St. Andrews run :bigwave:

ps Joanna, if you're ever stuck for something to paint, I have a nice hut which needs doing... :smilewinkgrin:

[MINIme:)]

haha!! I saw that with the black car, had a wee grin to myself ;)

I wasn't sure what it was at the time, I just knew it was shiny, expensive and fast and that he had a superiority complex :smilewinkgrin: but not for long! :clap:



edit: Alacrity.....good word. I'll have to look that one up :yes nod:

Wow, a credit to the roll cage and safety harness, glad he had the presence of mind to keep his arm inside, could have been a bad injury.
Good catch with the camera Neil, bet a lot of the "official" guys never caught it

Great pictures Neil. I'm gutted I went to the hairpin now, no drama down there:frown:

Good photos Neil, motor drive working overtime :thumbs up:

Ach, that'll buff out, that will.:p

That is one seriously buggered MINI. Can't see that back on the road, but I guess it depends on the chassis. Testament to the roll cage though, that he was able to walk away from that. Incredible.

Good pics too.:thumbs up:

ABS failure in to Duffus. Tim tried to avoid collecting any other cars but in taking avoiding action the inside of his wheel caught the back of the donut kerb and launched him.

4 complete rolls, the cage has been passed for re-use by the scrutineers, the shell is fair worn out however.

Well the main thing is that Tim is ok glad there is some thing that can be salvaged ;)

it was incredible to see him get out and bow to us all, so good to see he was ok.

Good photos Neil, motor drive working overtime :thumbs up:

Steven, motor drive did its job perfectly.
The first 3/4 shots are not usable as there out of focus grass and the marshal station as the camera was being lifted, if the camera was a gun I'd probably of shot myself in the foot.:hand:

Thanks to all of the others who commented on the pictures, its good to see an expensive hobby get recognized.:thumbs up:

hey all... not sure why, but i'm not getting notifications on this thread anymore!

Great to see you all... although looks like I missed some of you as well.

Was a good weekend by the end of it... we did 2 gearboxes on Saturday so only got 15 mins of testing. Qualified 8th but then got dropped to 10th due to setting fastest lap under a yellow (whoopsie)... hard 1st two races, finished 9th and 8th, but managed a good 4th in the 3rd race. Positively we were 3rd fastest in Race 1 which was pleasing.

Also very relieved Tim was ok... was a nasty smash, but Tims made of strong stuff luckily... I'm sure he'll be back stronger than ever.

Looking forward to the BTCC, hope some of you are coming up... be sure to stop by if you're there and say hello.

Hopefully see you all again soon.

Cheers
