55th ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION EVENT! - SATURDAY 9TH JULY 2022

[RE5]

Is there anything I must do Malcolm regarding Stand Booking?   Or shall I leave in your/Mazda Heritage capable hands & just "Turn Up" on the day?

[Casey]

Nothing needed at this point, Pete. Hopefully, it will be a simple matter, nearer the day, of letting know you know roughly what time to arrive, what entrance to use and where the stand is located. We are finalising the stands now with the team at JDM Combe and have provisionally agreed everything. Just need to double check before we announce everything. Looks like about 100 cars across all the rotary stands!

Kevin (threesevens onrx7fb.com) has just paid up for a place on our stand. He'll be bringing his 1982 Elford, which is pretty much factory fresh and with only around 6k miles on the clock!

The cut-off date for ticket applications is 9am this Wednesday. The team at Combe will then know the size of each club stand and will layout the club stand spaces around the circuit accordingly, then send out the tickets and stand passes to match the plan. I reckon we should have tickets/passes landing on doormats in 6-10 days.

The RX-8 OC are now working on which cars can be included in the 12.45pm (subject to confirmation) parade lap of 68 cars (limit imposed by JDM Combe). We have ~140 cars at the show, so not everyone can go out in the parade. The RX-8 OC have decided (fairly, in my opinion) that any cars doing a track session will not be eligible for the parade lap.

There are a dozen timeline cars, including those marked below, which will take priority at the head of the parade and the RX-8 OC would like as many as those as possible to go out. So, we have possibily for the parade:

• Steve (RX-4) - TIMELINE, include in parade, if Clive/Steve can take it out
• David Collins (RX-7 FB)
• MarkP (RX-7 FB)
• boosted (Jon) (RX-7 FD)
• AMH (Ann)(RX-8 R3)
• tom20B (RX-7 FD 3 Rotor)
• casey (Malcolm) (RX-8 or RX-7 FB)
• Gavin Barber (RX-7 FB)
• Kees (Cosmo 110s) - TIMELINE, maybe parade, if driveable (being trailered to show)
• Kevin (RX-7 FB Elford) - TIMELINE, included in parade
• Simmo_lincoln (Paul)(RX-7 FD)
• mikeysrx7 (Mike)(RX-7 FC TII Cab)

Can everyone else on the list who would like to go out in the parade lap please confirm by posting in this topic that they wish to do so. We'll do our best to include as many cars as possible

Sorry Clive, my listing above (now edited) was confusing 

It would be great, but....

Due to JDM Combe restricting us to 68 places on the parade lap, we have a dilemma on how to get a possible 140 cars out there. The RX-8 OC have taken the decision that any car that is doing a track session should be excluded from the parade lap to allow as may owners as possible to drive around the track at the event. Even excluding track session cars, we still appear to be over-subscribed and will have to disappoint some owners as we have been too successful with the numbers this year 

Clive, I assume you are aware that, as at previous JDM Combe events, your tow car and trailer will have to be parked in the trailer park once your race car is parked up? Is Steve driving your RX-4 to the event?

"My plus 1" 

Yeah, Jamie messaged me a week or so ago to let me know. I'll add Jamie to the listing 

[Casey]

If anyone is bringing friends and family with them on the day, can you post up in here please if they are not on the list I have produced above.

The RX-8 OC will be bringing loads of drinks and food for breakfast (bacon rolls) and would like some idea of how many they might need to cater for.

Thanks 

[RE5]

I have a + 1, family (Brother in Law) he is traveling separately & will meet me inside , will be my passenger on the Lap of honour.

Yes Steve will bring the RX-4.
Not going on track with the race car, but can do the parade with it if required

[Casey]

Ah, that's different then Clive. The JDM Combe list shows you have bought a track session? If you are not going out on a track session then there ought to be a place for your race car in the parade lap.

Provisionally, the RX-8 OC have allocated up to10 spaces in the parade to MRC and that doesn't include the timeline cars from Kees, Kevin and Pete.
