I'll be there, hopefully.

Can I offer my track Sprint as a project? I'm sure we can reshell it in a day. :lol:

I could drive mine now if club door repair panels were on the agenda for a demo.

Ladies and Gentlemen,
Coventry Branch will not be in a position to organise this, due to running the NEC event a couple of weeks later.

Who's going to step up to the plate and ensure the continuation of the TDC prize winning resto show stand?

No pressure at all! :D

I could make a set of door panels available, but unlikely to make the Show this year; shame, I've thoroughly enjoyed the last few years...

How are we doing with volunteers for the club stand? Have we any projects more to the point?

Is anyone going or want to go from the South East(Kent) area. I would like to go, but would like to share travel cost's. It's a long way to go with today's fuel costs!
I don't mind driving, or paying towards someone else's fuel.

Anyone interested?

Martin.

No TDC stand this year I'm afraid. We're going to give the other clubs a chance to win the prize money this time and instead focus our resources on putting on a top quality display at the NEC.

I was thinking about coming along to this in the SE. But I note that dogs are not allowed in the exhibition halls. Given that I've not been before, and don't thus know how much is in the halls and how much elsewhere, could fellow members that have previously been please advice whether it would be worth going if the halls are out of bounds?
Thanks,
Richard
