Ok guys and gals

I have just been sent all the official information regarding Japfest 2004. As per the exisiting post regarding this the date is confirmed as Saturday 22nd May.

The reason for the new thread is just to tidy things up and it's time to start confirming numbers and arranging advance payments. The format is pretty much the same as last year when over 6000 people attended, 22 Clubs had display stands and there were 41 traders. The major difference this year is we can reserve track time JUST FOR US !

Okay, good news over - here comes the bad bit. Each track session costs £350.00 and a maximum of 20 cars are allowed at a time. Therefore if we book a Club VR4 session and 20 people do it thats £17.50 each per session. If only 10 do it then it's £35 per person etc. The other option is to go it alone and pay £22 per session but you will be on a mixed bunch of cars and not just CVR4. A session is 15 minutes of track time.

Below I have cut and pasted the list of people who wish to show their car on the CVR4 stand and the people who indicated they would like track time. It is free to show your car but advance entrance tickets are £6 per person INSERT INTO post VALUES (will be £10 per person on the gate); and kids under 14 are free. As promised, CVR4 members will get priority, so for the track sessions I have listed the CVR4 members first and then a seperate list of non-members in the order they put their name down. If all 20 slots go to members then the non-members will not be accepted for the track INSERT INTO post VALUES (but of course they could pay the £22 and go in a mixed run). If all 20 places are not filled by members then the free spots will go to the people in order on the list.

What we MUST do is the following:

a) Get confirmed numbers asap so we can book it - the stands and track time are first come first served so let's get in there!
b) Please post if you want track time for definate, and on the assumption we fill 20 places how many sessions are you willing to pay for ? 1,2,3 etc
c) How many advance entrance tickets you need at £6 per person

We have to pay for the whole lot when we book, so once we have confirmed numbers we will need payments please. Just one track session at £350 and say 30 entrance tickets is £180, totalling £530 for someone to outlay so it is only fair to get the money up front off people.

Right, got all that ? Get posting people.

[Kieran]

Yes! Put me down for three Club VR-4 track sessions and I'll be on the stand, proudly ploishing my GLS in between track runs!:-D


So, that's 3 track sessions INSERT INTO post VALUES (provided we can get the numbers up); plus 2 tickets for alex and me!

[zedy1]

1 track session and 1 ticket for me pete INSERT INTO post VALUES (dont wanna push iher untill other engine is ready)

[enigma]

Hell, if every one else is planning on 3 runs then stick me down for 3 also.

I need tickets for myself and Mrs BDA as well please.

[Spirit]

Thanks guys, added "Total To Pay" based on your wishes at the bottom of the lists above. Of course we will agree on a final number of track sessions once we have a general opinion.

[borgan]

3 track sessions for me & 2 tickets please.

[Spirit]

Roger that, thanks Stephen

[Spirit]

Have just sent an email to the organisers to confirm if kids are free to get in. Will update as soon as I know

[Spirit]

Okay got a reply - kids under 14 are free.

[SGHOM]

1 ticket for me Pete, & 3 crash.............. err 3 sessions on the skidp............err track please !!

[peterernest]

Please put me down for a space on the stand and may I have two tickets INSERT INTO post VALUES (one for Katie and one for me).

I will pay for track time although I'm not overly concerned if someone else values my space more than me. I'm also not really interested in paying for more than one session.

[Spirit]

To be honest guys, I think 2 sessions is the more likely scenario. I reckon by the time we book we won't get three but also imagine the time involved to get 20 of us off the stand and back each time - I reckon on morning session and one afternoon session may be more sensible INSERT INTO post VALUES (and of course the cost aspect if we don't fill all 20 slots). Any thoughts ?

[SGHOM]

I concur !! seems a more sensible option.

[SGHOM]

I need tickets for myself and Mrs BDA as well please.

Mrs BDA ??? :$ :help: :scared1: :nokiss: :wtf: :lolz:

[Simon]

2 track sessions and one entry ticket please.

[Spirit]

All done mate - 8 confirmed for track so far - another 12 to get the price down to £17.50 !

Good point. That's fine with me.

[Spirit]

Right, have amended the track sessions to 2 max.

[adam_shaw]

Hi,

I hope I'll be about INSERT INTO post VALUES (product launch at work permitting); so can I get a place on the stand and two entry tickets please. INSERT INTO post VALUES (Track sessions not for me....)
