I must admit to being a bit worried at the lack of response from the AER team this year 

No reply to my emails and no 2012 entry list on the website is a concern...I'll still register a few more entries though and see what happens.

I registered last week but have had no response ?

[PLOD11]

Also registerd and no reply so far ..... 

[Karl]

Some good news 

I phoned Rick today regarding this years AER event. He confirms it is still going ahead and that due to other work commitments he has not given the event the attention it deserves. He still has a large number of emails to respond to , as well as the website to update , but hopes to make good progress on everything this week.

So, if you still want to participate in this years AER please make sure you register asap . This is a really good event to get involved with...and watching that jet car go down the track never gets boring

Decided i might aswell have a go, so have just sent off my details and we'll see what happens 

[radiomarty]

E-mail from Santa Pod arrived last night - entry list to be posted soon 

[Karl]

The AER website has now been updated, so if you're not on the list of participants and want to take part then get yourself registered asap

[minidaz]

I registered, but not on the list, so maybe i didn't meet the cut off date - if there was one ?

Dont think there is a cut off, e mail Rick Cuthbert, he's only too keen to get as many people involved as poss.

The 2012 confirmed entry list is also online, but it would be very helpful if you could check it here: http://www.aeracing.org/entry2012.php

...And let me know if the information is correct. There are also a number of missing pictures, mainly because the website-based entry form was corrupting files. If your photo is missing, please reply to this email and attach it so we can update the entry list with your picture.

Please note that I have also separated the entry list for bicycle-type vehicles (that includes Sinclair C5s!) and those that won't do 40+mph at the finish line. There will be a new-for-2012 trophy up for grabs for these vehicles that we will run on a mini sprint-track!

I can also confirm in this email that gates will be open on Friday to allow entry to people to who need to trickle-charge electric vehicles overnight. This should allow people to drive to the track on Friday afternoon, charge up on Friday night, run all day Saturday, charge again if they need to before heading home. Camping is available on-site.

Please let your friends and contacts who are interested in Alternative Fuels know that the entries are open and AE Racing is all set to GO!

Cheers Plod, have sent an email

*Edit* And just received one back 

[kamilb1998]

Just sent my details off! I'll be there!

[minidaz]

As i didn't race last year ( so just paid on the gate ) do we get an email that we print out to show the people on the gate that we have free entry , or do we just tell them our names and what vehicle we have ?

Wasn't sure if we'd get another update from the AER people so figured i'd ask those that went last year 

[Karl]

...assuming things have not changed since previous visits , once you've registered you just turn up at the gate on the day and your name should be on a list. You then get handed your ticket(s).
