Ian, more importantly has the club bought a lightning conductor for the top of the Gazebo?

Rob

Ken when do you want the deposits?

Hi Ken,

Hope your well?

Just enquiring if the SEC are still having a stand at this years Silverstone Classic 2014?

If a yes do you have a weekend ticket deal again, and if so how much?

I would be interested in attending and I have had enquiries from a few other CLS members. I didn't get the chance to ask Carol at Race Retro.

Many thanks and best wishes,
Mark James.

If I'm not too late, 4 tickets, 3 days, please.

Struan

Arrrrggghhhhhhh :mad:

So, so close.

I should have a working car finished by then, but probably not legally on the road. I'll have to leave a decision until nearer the time I'm afraid. I so wanted to be there this year :(

Still, there's time yet and I could borrow a trailer :D


Hmmm

I took mine on a trailer last year Jeff, good opportunity to drive it before IVA on the parade laps:D Thats assuming we don't get rained off again.

You want the tow bar on the blue one Struan.
The 12v will have plenty of torque?

Don't think either lack torque, but not sure Stratos would be a stable tow car...:confused:

Forget that then? I think the exhaust would be in the way, in any case?

The missus has almost told me to go out and simply buy a suitable trailer and stop whinging. Trouble is that I distrust buying something second hand that would be "economic" and trailers which look sound and respectable would seem to be close enough to the cost of a new one that it seems (to me at least) to be a bit of a "no brainer". I think she's working under the impression that one of our trees is just about to sprout a full canopy of fresh £5 notes.

That put aside, I have been saying I would get a suitable trailer for a couple of years now, so it could happen. The Strat' isn't the only car that will need some transport so there's a little (slim) justification for spending even more money. Brace yourselves Brian James Trailers, I'm probably going to contact you soon.

A convoy with Struan and his cars would be a somewhat impressive way to arrive but it's still a little early to commit yet. Another months worth of work should see things much closer to complete.

Cheers all,

There you go Jeff. Any chance of a cutting from that tree of yours ?.

I hired a Brian James transporter when I needed to move my Strat. You need a decent trailer to transport a car of value and £2K is a little steep to have lying around.
You also have more friends once people know you have a decent trailer!!

I got an Ifor Williams CT136. Just great for the Stratos. Tows smoothly at 70, one person can load it.
Definitely need somewhere secure to keep it, or live in a low crime area. Can't hire one for love or money as they seem not to get returned. Insurance is about £100/yr, but precludes hiring and is pretty strict.

Missed this one !. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Brian-Jame...id=60465223339

The days have gone when you could make your own trailer, VOSA are out in force inspecting all forms of trailer, and if it is not a manufactured trailer it will more than likely get impounded. When towing now more that ever you need to know your weights, if stopped you will be quizzed by VOSA, ignorance will be no defence.

Invest in a good trailer is my advice.

Yes Mel, know all about this "gottcha", not because I've be caught, but because I've been towing trailers for most of my driving life and was stopped, once. This is why I'm shy of buying most of the second hand trailers.

I'll keep my eyes open, but anticipate (having been "guided" by the management) that we'll look seriously at the new options in a couple of months time. At the end of the day the car needs to be travelled about a few times before and including the IVA as well as Silverstone.

Oh ... that sounded almost like a commitment :eek:

It is a couple of years since I've been, and never with a car to show.

Who's going !!!!! for updated list please see updated list at the top of page 1

Jeff please confirm if you require tickets as i am ordering them on Wed 26/03/14 to get 2 for1 offer !!!!!!

Regards Ken

Ken. Can I put my name down for two tickets for the Saturday. Hopefully the car should be up and running by then so this will be its first outing, it may not be quite road legal by then but I do have the luxury of a trailer for the worst case scenario. I am also very experienced at pushing it if all else fails.

Ken, put me down for two days: Friday and Saturday.

I guess that'll mean that a parade lap will be on Sunday, if so include me on Sunday too.

Jeff

SILVERSTONE UPDATE. I have persuaded the organisers to give us our parade laps on Saturday to help us celebrate our first WRC championship win of 1974. To see the full list of who's going see page 1 list. !!!!!!

Regards Ken

Well Done Ken
