Any chance of asking the nice RAF people if they can sweep the area with one of their runway sweepers?

Don't really want to ask this, as it's so late in the day but, is it too late to add a passenger/helper who's a good friend and BP member?

I've requested info from the guys at the base regarding late amendments and await their answer. I'll let you know :thumb:

Guys,

The police here at Marham have called time with changes. There is one of them who has been writing all the passes out and changes/additions take a long time in addition to their day jobs. Sorry guys but that's it, the list sent is the final one.

As for sweeping the track, it gets done but makes little difference as all the small stones come from parts of the circuit that cannot be swept and dragged on in tyre treads. I mention this on the briefing, but there are ways of avoiding chips on this event; don't drive up the arse of the car in front and keep out of their slip stream. On the event before last, I drove my NSX around it all weekend after the front had been re painted and didn't get one chip.

Hope this helps and apologies for the closure of the name list

Keith

Thanks for your reply Keith. I guessed that would be the case and quite understandable, a deadline is just that. :) but doesn't hurt to ask.

Any chance your NSX will be getting an airing next weekend? 8)

As for going in a convoy, if i remember rightly last time, you all left me behind :x

Anyone else wanting to meet at Thickthorne?
