When you book your ticket, say that you are part of "Williams Clio"club and that you want to display your car. You then have to get to FCS early to get in.

Mark, tbh i think alot of the mentality of people on here is swinging alot towards track days rather than 'show 'n' shine' type events. The track time, to put it politly is a rip off, why would i wanna spend that much money for 30 mins (if theres and incident maybe only even 10 mins?) on track when i can go and if i shop around get a whole day for £120 or so.

For me tbh its not so much about the show, thats a bonus if you like, its about going and meeting up with people i haven't seen for a year or so and having the crack, i remember whn i started going to car shows you'd have no ends of discounts, people offloading gear at the end of the day nice and cheap (not unlike the autosport show), but now there seems (and correct me if i'm wrong, and missed the offers etc), that traders are only there for advertising, they aren't interested in doing the offers.

I dunno maybe its me growing outa car shows and more into the racing side of things as i get older, but the whole show concept itself just doesn't appeal to me too much any more

i got track time! i thought it would be a blast and now you party poopers arent gunna track it! shame on you! :P

I can accept your comments about car shows but thats personal BUt rack time is not a rip off.

Why?

cheapest tracktime at Rockingham is £55+ for 30 minutes on track. Rockingham track day is £225 for weekday in summer and thats two hours track time so that maths is straight forward.

we are selling track time for less than 50% over all than we could make if we sold it as a full track day.

why is it that expensive?

Rockingham, silverstone, Donnington etc are first class expensive race tracks to do track days on and cost far more than £120 I can assure you.

If I hire a track that does tracks for £120 I would be charging probably £5-£10 for track sessions.

So it isn't a rip off, its subsidised, I thought I'd clear the pricing issue up for you. Investigate this matter and you will find what I have just said.

I know a car show is a social event, it has many reasons but I agree if you want a track DAY, that is a different thing altogther.

Cheers
Mark

The queuing time was an issue for me last year. I don't like queuing for an hour+ then when finally getting in the staff know bugger all. Could have been handled better. Is it going to be like that this year? Do you offer a fast track entry for say 5-10quid extra?

french car show
23-05-2008, 17:30
that was th fault of rokcingham as they under estimated the volume arriving in a short space of time.

This time they have initiated the touring car plan which is x4 times bigger than FCS and are using 5 pay gates which is 4 more than last year.

when we handled gates at Brunts it was fast and will be again

Some of us found a back way in that meant only queuing for 5 minutes ;)



Although I have no idea how I did it... LoL :lol:

So is anyone else going on the WC stand? Or is it only 5 people?! :shock:

MicKPM
09-06-2008, 13:52
Sorry if this ins't allowed Northy but I thought i'd offer it

If anyone wants to come on Track I've purchased some extra spaces for RSC. I'm not entirely sure when our session is but if anyone fancies a session you can come play with us and the C16V boys and girls as I believe we're out on the same session.

I lied, I can't add up - it's 6 at the moment lol

Still can't decide which stand to go on :oops:

I feel I should do CS as I've always done it, but you guys and C16V are more appropriate and I feel more at home here, given the current bias on CS towards mk2s... :confused:
