Staningrimsby, I will come and say hello!!!!, I'm so pleased your car passed!!
If anyone has any club membership forms/leaflets for TRDC events etc, if you can get them up to Tatton Park Jim & I will do our best to promote the club and it,s events!! Quite a few non club cars are entered so it is a good point! plus all the interest from people just wanting to come and see the TR7's. Seems like theres still a few 'flying-wedge' fans out there!!
There's still time to enter, remember it,s FREE!, entry forms available at www.cheshireautopromotions.co.uk judging/trophies on BOTH days! Cheers fixed-head.

Hello, just had a John Wood from Staffordshire enter on E-mail, but Reg. No. different, is it the same John Wood?
Saw TR7-Jim at Capesthorne yesterday, he too is really excited about next weekend! He is taxing his TR8 this week to bring it to Tatton Park for the special display.
If anyone has not yet received their TR7 pass for Tatton Park, or has decided to come on the last minute, you are welcome to ring my mobile with your car details and I will post you a pass first class.

Tel. 07915 221 737. If I'm not able to answer, please keep trying! We really don't want to miss any TR7's or TR8's for this special event.

Jim and I agreed yesterday,to allow as many TR7/8's to attend as possible, as long as there is enough time to post a pass out to you.

It's very important to be pre-entered and have an exhibitors pass to get your car onto the display! Jim is bringing a gazeebo, so we can all sit out of the baking sun!

DON'T FORGET!!-IF YOU WANT TO COME AND JOIN US, PLEASE PHONE NOW TO ARRANGE FOR A FREE PASS (FOR 2 ADULTS & TR7) TO BE PART OF THE "FLYING-WEDGE'S ONLY" DISPLAY AT TATTON PARK NEXT WEEKEND!
see you all there!!! Cheers fixed-head.

All,

Not long now only 5 days to go, remember even if your TR7/8 isn't on the road, please come along and have a chat etc.

Like stuart says I will be bringing the gazebo with me to keep the sun off, so remember to bring your folding chairs with you.

Mines still in the paintshop, someones gazebo blew away and caught my front wing when the car was parked at a show, just a very minor scratch but needed sorting and of course a Bank holiday weekend got in the way, hope to get it back tomorrow and refit the new distributor also, see how it runs and fingers crossed for the weekend.

All the best, Paul

Well what do you know,

Just 4 days before the event and the front wing goes a bit closer to the drive wall than it should [:(].

Got some body repairs to do now before the drive to Tatton on Saturday.[:(]
