Ok, me and my brother had a idea that we would come to Rotorstock 10. :)
So, few questions:
Do you have had overseas quests before?
What would tickets cost if 2 mrc overseas quests and 2 non members are coming?
When it opens and closes?
And general info about that event that we should know...?
Thanks :)
Title: Rotorstock 10 is GO
Post by: mpk490p on December 31, 2012, 09:12:01 AM
some info here http://www.gotp.co.uk
you should be able to camp from the Friday night and there is RWYB on the Sunday, there will be a concession for members but i wouldn\'t like to say what although pricing is on Santa Pods website already http://www.gotp.co.uk/tickets.php

we have had overseas goes before IIRC, if you want to go down the strip read the rules http://www.gotp.co.uk/rwyb.php the sprint circuit was free last year

Thanks :)

It will be great to see you attend and just like Sevenstock we have always had Rotary enthusiasts attend each year and as far as I know outside Sevenstock, Rotorstock is the next largest gathering of Mazda Rotarys any where on the planet :chat  

Mark has done a good job to help you already, but if you feel you need anything else answered we will all be happy to help if we can :3gears-rh

Post by: re japi on January 02, 2013, 09:30:35 AM
Thanks for info. That helped alot. :)

Unfortunatly we wont be coming with rotary, its too expensive and we dont have suitable car for that trip. :)

Its our summerholiday trip. So we started to plan early, and though that it would be a good idea to see something we love. Lots of awesome rotaries, legendary Santa Pod and maybe visit Mr.Hayward if we have time. :)

Wow, just looked at links that mpk490p linked in his post. I didnt realize that event is God of the Pod! :) So there will be others too... :)

Few questions thought. Are all there cars in a same parking area. I mean is there show/race cars area and normal cars area? If we come with somekind of rental crap Corsa, were do we put it? ;)
Title: Rotorstock 10 is GO
Post by: Grant Monkhouse on February 01, 2013, 06:37:28 PM
Yes you can park at the near side to the entrance in normal cars. And walk to the other side of the drag strip to where the rotary stand is and the others:) parking is free, camping I think you have to pay for.

Thinking of going to the pod with a few rx7\'s ( friends ).
Coming from the netherlands and have been away for a few years from the pod.
Nice to meet clive, and all the others.

Post by: re japi on June 12, 2013, 06:58:53 AM
In Rotorstock event, can there be a co-driver/passenger at the racetrack and/or dragstrip?

Reason for me to ask that is that I want to show my dad true potential and performance of fast rotary! ;) He has been in many race/rally cars. But he hasnt seen (yet) what highly tuned rotary can do...

So, im asking if someone can give him a ride at RS10? ;)
Title: Rotorstock 10 is GO
Post by: Grant Monkhouse on June 12, 2013, 07:02:30 AM
Afaik you can have a passenger in the cars for RWYB so I\'m sure it would be ok to passenger in the sprint track too.

If a car goes over 130 or 140 mph in the 1/4 mile then I don\'t think a passenger is allowed

Kelly is dying for a passenger ride but I\'m not sure if they will allow a passenger in the drag car.
Can\'t see where is says no and I know she would need to don a helmet .

Any news on what the plan is? Bought my tickets and said Id collect on the day as opposed to posting, completely new on here but im sure I can meet some of the RX8 club guys who are going, has all that been sorted out yet!?

Someone will come along and provide details for collection. But in the past the paid for tickets have been available to collect from the office at the entrance (not the kiosks).

What Chris said!

There\'s a ticket collection office to the right of the entrance to the Pod.  

Just ordered my ticket, getting it posted to me though.  No rotary this year, I am toying with the idea of competing in GOTP with either my Mondeo or my Pajero for a laugh.

Well, we are driving some crappy rental Ford Focus. I hope they will let us in... ;)

Btw, are you going to do some kind of rotary convoy to the Pod? We have hotel room at Wellingborough, so it would be easier for us just to join you guys.

Ask them mate, if you go down in the RWYB then they can\'t really say no. I want a passenger ride too:p
