i'd be up for that, never been but are cars are starting to move into the classic category for sure

 

[initialDean]

Exactly... Cant all be Ford Model T's can it.... My brother is already looking at getting a stand together for the Noble Club...
I think we should do the same. If enough people show an interest, I am happy with planning it.

Would be nice to have 2-3 really nice standard Cars and maybe 1-2 pimped ones.
Both FC and FD really on the same stand... or could go balls deep and incl an RX8 too... might be going a bit mad there.... This is the FDOC after all haha

 

[MKZ7212]

well mine is a 99 RS stock car

 

[initialDean]

perfect... mines 2002 near enough stock too... looks stock enough lol

 

[JE96]

I'll come as one of the ruined ones

 

[Fiddy]

Is mine pimped enough as I could dabble

 

[Ceylon]

I'd be keen for this .

 

[Duey]

i could be down for this as long as they don't need to be clean looking and they don't mind a load of smoke

I don't know if they'd be happy with this bunch of hooligans descending on them

 

[initialDean]

Here is a vid of the Supra Stand from last years show

 

[initialDean]

I'm going to start the sign up process now and see how far we go...

Not sure how many cars we are going to commit to having there. I think 3 solid standard FD's... one modded one... one solid FC?
Anyone know an owner of a good FC to reach out to?

 

[initialDean]

Here is some blerb

I think we will have to be there on the Thursday to set up the stand..... and you cant move your car until Sunday night....
So those of us going need to be aware of that... arrange for hotels etc...

It sounds like a hasstle, but after all the shit going on in the world at the moment I think it would be awesome to get out the house and spend a long weekend with fellow minded enthusiasts. Our cars already being classics are starting to shoot up in value and respect. I think we should celebrate this and stake our claim on the classic scene.

Our stand will be small and simple. I'm happy to make/build any elements we need if any. Its nice to have stands next to your car detailing any work or information on it.

Would be awesome to have some flags and signs and merch from the club too.

Only thing that might cost us is the liability insurance. Ill get a price for that and see what it is.

I dont know if anyone from here wants to take over this feed and make it so we can have the Names of people committed to coming on the top or anything.

Let me get the ball rolling and see where it ends up. They might not even except our request for a stand lol.

 

[initialDean]

I've submitted the request - lets see what happens

 

[Ceylon]

Ah I didn't realise you were committed from Thursday until Sunday. I'll have to be a tentative option! The missus might not like me gone for 4 days as we'll have a 4 month old baby at that point haha.

 

[initialDean]

I know, its full on a bit.... good luck with the little one too!

 

[MKZ7212]

Yeh i've done stuff at the NEC when i worked with Goodyear, no movement of any vehicle during the even and limited engine on time, they like you to push vehicles into place

LOL might suit some of us that....

I put 5 cars down on the submission... Mine and 4 others.... im sure we can muster that much

 

[Sturneyrx7]

Looks a potentially good option but the 4 day commitment might be too much for many, certainly seems a more sophisticated show.

Liability insurance cant be ignored though, that and the costs of it will need to be addressed early on to make this a success.

 

[initialDean]

That's right... the NEC is only really 45mins away for me, although I shall still be in a hotel during the event.
The organisers will sort the insurance out for a fee.. Not sure what it is yet but cant imagine it will be a lot. only to cover 4 days.

There is plenty to do and see there. You don't have to stay with your car all weekend. You don't even have to be there at all if you don't want to.
Park your car up and go home lol ...
