Rick 2014 Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 I haven't camped since primary school lol.And I was 34 on Saturday lol ive just asked the missus and she said she would camp over night if there was enough of us doing it I would also go down in Convoy,maybe meet up some where and go down?.How old is every one here any way lol and who is actually going? I might even sleep in the forester in sleeping bags
Gambit Posted January 4, 2015 Author Posted January 4, 2015 I was just thinking I'll not camp and drive down if I can go on the last day but I'm tempted now lol. I'm 35 next month but still act worse than my 6 year old at times :D Oh and happy belated birthday My missus just read the last comment too about acting like my 6 years old she agreed -_- Mind you even Dogconkres missus told me to grow up before :D 1
Rick 2014 Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 Im still a big kid lol I don't think I will ever grow up
Gambit Posted January 4, 2015 Author Posted January 4, 2015 I'll stick by the saying " growing old is mandatory, growing up is optional. " [emoji1]
Scoobyghost Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 I'm keen on this. Any rough idea on prices? Trying to save for a wedding as well as looking after the impreza. I've learnt quickly...don't tell her anything. 1

Scoobyghost Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Is the entry ticket price per person or per car?
stants Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Per person [emoji35] I'm afraid If we manage to get our act together this year we'll get them at a discounted rate. Was good last year loads of different cars Sent from my SM-G850F
quit Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 per person! Yeah camping at pod is always interesting..... If it rains it turns into hell on earth! last time i did it was PVS about 7 years ago.... we managed to sneak round the other side and camp out the way when it started raining (luckily got there late) as the main camp area on the right as you go in was a total bog!! a toilet block of about 4 toilets and mostly idiots about till 5am
stants Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Isn't there a campsite at billing aqua drome ? And one shower that's about it. I didn't mind the drive down on the morning as when we got therewas chaos, we couldn't find the sand we'd managed to sneak onto and just parked up and ran off Sent from my SM-G850F
Scoobyghost Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Sound like chaos. Is it better to get there the night before then?
stants Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 I don't think it would have made any difference, all the club stands were separated with a bit of 3foot high fence with club names laminated and tie wrapped onto them, so unless you were in a big club group you had no chance. Seemed like once you were through the gate was a free for all. Sent from my SM-G850F
quit Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 yeah always the same at pod, i go a few times a year for various shows (went 3 last year) but didnt camp you cant camp on your stand which is a bonus you rarely get these days! But yes billing aquadrome is nice
Scoobyghost Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 So when we go as a club do we have a specific parking area? This would be my first event I visit so I'm full of eager and questions.
quit Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 you will have a stand area for the sunday which you can access from about 7am The camping is a free for all "find a space"
quit Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 MAP! hopefully that shows a bit of the local area, I will be coming from the barnwell road A605 - A1 area... thrapston and then i dive off via backroads to pod as its country lanes to pod and if you go wellingborough you will sit in traffic for at least a hour and a half I have also highlighted a couple local hotel locations for those who wouldnt want to rough it 1
stants Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Like that map ! So the south really does stop at Watford gap [emoji16] I'm not sure if I'll camp or get a hotel or drive down same day only takes about an hour and a half from ye north [emoji3] Sent from my SM-G850F 1
Scoobyghost Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 I'll be travelling from south. Should take me 2 hours. All our members get to park on the stands?
stants Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 If we don't mess it up like last yea, basically we missed the cut off point by one member (who shalt remain nameless) who booked directly so we didn't get a stand, luckily when we got there some chap had loads of stand passes going spare so we bagged them up Sent from my SM-G850F
quit Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 yeah you get your ticket and a stand pass mate, that will have a number on it like G3 so you know where to go, they will publish a map the week before hopefully as the staff are pretty useless but its not a massive place so you cant get lost... Yeah takes me about 90 mins to dartford so thats about right 1
quit Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 If we don't mess it up like last yea, basically we missed the cut off point by one member (who shalt remain nameless) who booked directly so we didn't get a stand, luckily when we got there some chap had loads of stand passes going spare so we bagged them up Sent from my SM-G850F book the wifes tickets as drivers too! thats what i normally do when i organise them
stants Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 I'll be travelling solo the misses has no interest at all in cars or motorsport so that's a shame Sent from my SM-G850F
quit Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 im hoping mine wants to stay at home with my mates mrs so we can come out and play
stants Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 This is one good thing she has no idea what I get up to, may even run down the strip this year Sent from my SM-G850F
quit Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 till its videod and put on youtube ! lol!! i will prob do a few launches as its only half hour from home
