Manky Monkey Motors

dates for next year are 29th -31st july so no excuse mr monkey http://hotrodhayride.com/

see ya there Fester  ;D ;D ;D I'll be the one in the Ford Pick-em-up with an Indian in the back  ;D ;D ;D ;D

Now there's confidence for you!!! :D :D

Fancy raising the bar on that challenge/statement/dream Andy??

Clive

 ;D Nope. I've learnt not to make such rash statements!
Spoke to Kev Rooney last night about getting the Pop SVA'd. The cut-off date for the commercial SVA registration test we're aiming for is October 2011, but unlike previous versions of the test, there's no time after that date for re-testing. October. That's it. If it ain't on the road by then we've gotta go for full kit car type registration. Still do-able, but a lot more rigourous & will mean a lot of modifications to our truck.
So..maybe..just maybe, we'll make it there this time around!

if the altered mk1 estate is on the road by then i might well be in that. altered bodywise not drastic on the mech side.

got me booking form through today. looking forward to the saturday track event. 1/8 drags at dunsfold  ;D

What? No dirt track oval racing next year?
Presumably that's connected to the change of organising club?

it would appear the drags are limited to a fixed number, shame i quite fancied running the pi. its a knockout thing. shame.

Already booked the accommodation - got the same room as last July!  Can't wait.  I so enjoyed it this year and next year I will know what to expect and can plan accordingly.

See you there Dave, JJ

been trying to find out about the cabins but not having much luck.

had me ticket through today. will be camping.

Looks like fun but I don't fancy the camping cos you can't park next to your tent - what are these cabins you speak of?

only cabins left are the really basic ones that are near to the showers and toilets. i think they're the ones near the showfield. they just have 4 beds in them 11 quid each a night. not sure if you can park next to them. jj has booked into one of the hotel rooms i think.

Basic would do but there's only one of me so that's a no go, and the hotel's a bit pricy for me cos I spend a bit on rallies etc, never mind!

made some enquiries for a room and i got a positive reply from one, a maybe from one, a fully booked from one finally a no way jose from another. sent in me details by email the place is about the same distance from the pavillion as we were last year camping. the rooms in the lodge have all gone but they do have some rooms in the clubhouse so i've asked about one. its 18 quid but it'll beat trying to put up a tent if its crap weather.

yep booked in now its the bar we went into last year

you posh git!!!!

can't be bothered to put up a tent if there's accommodation on site. it'll save trudging across a field to get to the loos or showers.

never done this event before where abouts is it thanks

thanks may do day trip up on saturday looks my kind of event cheers

No daytrips, it's all or nothing!!

That's why I don't go I'm afraid.
Unfortunately, like a lot of people, I have to work on Fridays & Saturdays. By Sunday a lot of entrants are packing up early & heading home. I refuse to pay for the whole weekend to look at half the entrants for half a day.

only event of the year I go to, not cheap but a whole lot of fun with THE coolest cars you will see in this septic isle. If you don't like tenting you can hire a room/cabin etc........
