ROTORSTOCK - 9th & 10th August

[Lisa]

What are the general thoughts on putting a Rotorstock 5 DVD together (stop me if I\'m treading on any toes here) ?

I\'m happy to donate my quad core plus my current unemployed status to pulling everything together if I know roughly how many of you are taking cameras (stills & video) to the event. We could each focus on one area (drag strip start, drag strip end, drifting, interviewing the crowds, drivers, etc..) and swap and then I could combine all the footage.

Any budding TV presenters out there ?

Was just thinking we could easily beat some of the cack they show on some cable channels these days....... and a Rex show on tele/dvd could do us no harm...

Hi Mart

What a fantastic idea - you are now in charge of handling this :Thumbs-up

If you need any help financially to put it together let me know, will be great to be able to put this out on the MRC shop after Rotorstock.

i will be bringing my HD camcorder and am happy to donate any footage & pics to the cause. Presumably you have premiere pro?

Hi there this will be my first time at rotorstock and do we all camp in the same area (all club members together) and have the RX\'S parked together? Also is anybody going from the north west and we could get a convoy started on the 9th.

No I don\'t Ash, we can talk about that, have used Pinnacle Studio and Ulead in the past but that\'s before I built myself a hotrod desktop !! hehe

Certainly a show of hands of those who could donate any video footage and who want to be involved would be a good starter for ten. We may be able to sweeten that with an \'access all areas\' type pass or two ?

All creative input welcome....... your chance to do your own Top Gear....

Mart.

As we are now on the countdown to R5 there will be updates that I will try and bring you as soon possible, like this one

If any of you are going Drifting at R5 you will need to follow this link and register asap as they have told me this morning there are only 60 cars allowed and only on a pre-registered basis so from other events held they expect this to fill up very quickly.

I\'ll be there, but ain\'t sleeping in my car again, next day I couldn\'t feel my legs :Hammer

If I manage to put at least 1250 miles on my engine before that day, I\'ll try my luck in the strip aswell.

[C J R]

I\'ll be there for both days in some form or other.
 
Need to fit a replacement gearbox and cure a serious oil leak before, but if I cannot complete in time, I\'ll come down in the family car, with the family !

Hi everyone...

After having discussing it with Lisa, she told me it would be a good idea for me to ask you "Rotary lovers" to give us a hand... Here is my question...

There are 4 of us coming from France (by plane) landing at STANSTED Airport... Arriving on the friday (8th August) evening and leaving on the monday afternoon (11th August).

Because we are coming from a long way by plane, we will not be able to carry any tents with us... Do you think it would be possible for one or more person who will be attending ROTORSTOCK 5 on full weekend, to lend us 2 small tents or 1 big (4 people) tent for the saturday night... + 4 sleeping bags ?

It would be really lovely if you could sort something out for us...!

We don\'t know yet where we\'ll be staying on the friday evening and the sunday evening neither... if anyone has a fairly cheap idea, it would be great as well.

Let me know anyway.

Thanks everyone and hope to see you soon.

Regards.

I\'ll be heading down for the weekend on the 9th so could meet up for a mini convoy. Anyone else interested? We can then arrange somewhere that\'s good for all.
 
I also was wondering about the camping, any more details?

[JapHunter]

Thanks Lisa...

But it\'s not really worth it for us to buy tents, air beds, etc... as we will not be able to bring them back to France with us.

That\'s why I\'m trying to find some of you guys to help us out as it\'s only for the saturday night...

Thanks.

Lifts you will be able to orginise, I am sure
