Last years event was blessed with liquid sunshine, but was still a well attended event;

...top banana , I'll speak with the organiser on Monday and see what I can sort out 8)

I've phoned Amberley museum today and they are happy to accept more Sinclair C5's for display at this microcar rally.
You will need to email office@amberleymuseum.co.uk and ask for an entry form. Once they have received your completed entry form they will then post you back an entry pass for the day,granting you free access to the event.
It's not long until the event, so anyone wanting to join in should apply asap.

Karl,
So I e-mail them and tell them I want to show a C5 ? - Do I need to mention C5Alive ?
Julia says we can come - and asks what time do we need to be there for ?

Thats good news, looks like we will be making more of an impression this time round 8)

My application has landed - but I dont know how to fill it in !
Do I have to have RTA Insurance for a C5 ? whats that anyway ?
Do I need a licence for this class of vehicle ? - lol ok I know the answer to that one - lol
Do kids get in free or do I have to send a fiver for Mark ?
Sorry to be a little thick !

Looking at the leaflet, it would seem that unfortunately only the driver and 1 passenger goes free, so I guess you will need to pay for Mark.
The insurance requirement is for vehicles subject to the RTA (Road Traffic Act), so I'm assuming that it is not applicable to our C5's. It was relevant in my case only because I am taking the mini-el , which is registered as a motorcycle and therefore requires MoT and Insurance.

Is the built up to 1975 a typo on the leflet ?
Anyway I have filled it in - just needs a stamp and posting

..nope, not a typo. The 1975 limit was to keep it as a "classic" microcar rally - but we're allowed in as a special exception to the rule (includes the mini-el which is also officially too young to enter).
Another benefit to being part of C5alive mate ;D
-
Have you got your tickets yet Umpa - no sign of mine ?
-
No not yet - did you include a SAE & Stamp ?
-
opp's i missed that !!!!!
-
I passed the posting job on to Julia - but forgot to mention that part to her - so
we I failed too.
-
Relax guys - I've phoned the organiser today who said they posted the stuff to you anyway, it should arrive today or tomorrow :)
-
They arrived today-See you their.
-
Yes mine arrived today as well. I hope the weather is kind
-
I'm all trailered up - satnav programmed - ready for the off.
Are we all together or will we be in different areas ? I'm aiming to arrive the same time as you Karl.
Cya at the venu
-
Same here, all packed and ready for the morning 8)
Had to wait for the rain to stop before we could load the mini-el ::)
See you there mate :)
-
We are loaded up - hope to leave about 6am so should make it for about 9am . Looking forward to it !
-
I hope you all have a great weekend, look forward to seeing some pictures and hopefully Umpa will be doing a bit of filming with his video camera, see you all at Brooklands, only about five weeks to go :)

I sometime ride along with my headphones on, which i agree its not really a safe idea, but i tend to do this only when on the cycle paths, so no traffic to worry about, so some speakers would be a better allround idea, as Umpa says as long as its not too loud.
