Incase you haven't seen it, the discussion is across MR2oc, ROC and IMOC.

I very much doubt the organisors will come on here, so your best bet is to register interest on MR2oc or IMOC

The dates chosen clash with the Tatton Park show which is a shame as I really enjoyed the first WRA at Rockingham :(

Tim, can i just ask why you think the organisers wont come on here ?, has something been said to them about this site ? or is that an assumption as its a new website ?, cheers jinx

I would guess it is probably because they are MK2 and MK3 people, nothing sinister. It is a bit like the MK1 section on IMOC many people never strayed out of it :)

I personally never look at the MK2 sections on forums as I have no interest in the probe, and as I am rubbish at cutting hair I avoid the MK3 sections :lol:

Tony you need to stop the paranoia.

Coverco has it down to a T, they are mk2 people really and to be honest ALL of the organising is done on the oc forum anyway, its only members who cross post it to bring it to the attention of the other clubs (like I have here)

And I guess nobody has told them about this forum, so they probably dont even know it exists http://www.imoc.co.uk/forums/images/smiles/eusa_whistle.gif

I think Mic, Topgun, is organising it and he is one of the nicest people you could ever wish to meet.
He isn't an easily offended-grudge holding kind of guy. He just hasn't made it here for what ever reason, that's all I'm sure.

if i can get my mk1 up and running in time i am defintely coming. It will be my first time out in the car so looking forward to it and seeing other cars and their owners.

i do have an alterior motive however. Is anybody who is going in a position to have a look at my car and give me a second opinion?

i am new to cars and mk1s and want to make sure my car is going to be worth the effort. there is some rust underneath which looks a bit scary.

cheers and hopefully see you there. will add my name for sure when i know for sure.

Just a quick one.

I have read a post on the 'OC this morning about having to be on site by 9 am and it sounds like you may have to stay there until 6 pm. I'm not sure how accurate this is, but if its going to effect you it may be worth finding out.
The early start has counted me out :(

Don`t know how many of you guys (and gals) are going to this event,but
we do all know we have to be on site by 9.00am don`t we? :think:
I fear this could be a bit of an issue as I don`t think it`s been widely
publisied enough over all the MR2 clubs websites :|

Just don`t want people from this club arriving there at 10.00am and being
told by some jobsworth "Sorry mate, your too late!" :o :cry: :sick:

Maybe I`m worrying too much,but better we all know now and not on the day!

Hi Guys Steve SPudgun got in touch with me to ask why the MK1 club wasn't invited,well actually i sent an email to one of your Admins but never got a reply,which at the time thought you were not intrested in taking part,just glad that some of you have brought tickets.A quick up date at present we have 115 names down which was confirmed this afternoon.Everyone needs to be in the gates by 9.00am,dont forget to bring and fill out the indemnity document which will be sent with your tickets.We will all need to sign in on the day at 10.30 with a briefing at 11.30 in the International Media Suite.All drivers will need to pay in advance which i manged to knock them down to £5 for driver and £10 for the passenger.If you decide to bring a passenger on the day you can pay at the gates.So everyone make this a memorable day and get buying those tickets,we only need another 48 to make this happen.

I really would have liked to have gone on this as the first one was a great day out, but unfortunately Tatton is on at the same time. There will be 20-30 MR2's there on the MK1 stand and the drivers club stand which is a shame as they could have made the difference to the record attempt :(

Hi All

Havent been on here for a while - we're taking my red one (paid for her to have a hand wash today as she was filthy) and both of us are going. Next Saturday I'll be giving her another wash too.

Sloopeh & other SE peeps....there is a convoy from South Mimms Services on Sunday morning, get there for 6.30am to leave at 7am prompt. We're junction 30/31 of the M25 so are heading to South Mimms to meet up with others - it takes 45 mins to get from here to South Mimms incase it helps anyone to work out times.

To all who are going to this WRA, have you all seen and printed off the "Guinness WR participants form" from the MR2OC site (under World record attempt/ WRA Checklist). Apparently it needs to be filled in `thou there is supposed to be some spares knocking around at the event. 194 cars going so far! :D . Lets hope we can pull this off :roll: :+:

TOPGUN
26th May 2009, 08:59 AM
You can print your forms of from here we have also made up a check list of what to bring and do on the day http://mr2oc.co.uk/ForumsPro/viewtopic/t=118302.html.
Should have the final tickets sold Thurs a rough count its now over the 200 mark. :clap:

mr2mk1chick
26th May 2009, 09:06 AM
copied the checklist here:

WRA CHECKLIST

PLEASE CAN ALL ATTENDEES MAKE SURE YOU HAVE/COMPLETED THE FOLLOWING ON THE DAY

1) Drivers Licence.
New Style - bring your card (required) AND your paper section if you can find it.
Old Style - Paper section required (obviously)

2) Silverstone Tickets.
This consists of:
Green Wristband (sent out with the tickets)
Yellow Vehicle Pass (with registration no completed)
Activity Registration Form (completed)

3) Guinness World Record Participants form
(download and print off the attachment of this thread)
This needs to be completed and returned to one of the WRA organisers on the day. These will be submitted to Guiness for the final number of MR2's in the cavalcade so this bit is IMPORTANT!!!!

4) Circuit Manual.
Read the Silverstone Circuit Driving Manual carefully. Although we are not racing, we will still have to abide by these rules as part of their public liabilty insurance.

5) The cavalcade on the day.
This will be a rolling convoy around the track at NO MORE than 2 cars lengths between you and the person you are following. This will be undertaken at ~20mph. It is NOT a chance for you to put your foot down around Silverstone, it WILL be a little boring and uneventful as far as track driving is concerned, but we are here to break a record - not have tracktime.

YOU WILL JEOPARDISE THE WHOLE EVENT FOR EVERYONE IF YOU DO NOT FOLLOW THESE RULES & GUIDELINES.

This is the timetable for the day:

Arrival
You must arrive by 9:30am at silverstone with your yellow vehicle pass displayed or you will not be allowed entry. I suggest you aim to get to the circuit between 8 & 9 am. You will then be directed to the MR2 holding area.

Sign On
Sign on will be at 10:30, so please be by all your cars at 10:15 in the MR2 holding area.

Briefing
Briefing will be at 11:30, so again, make sure you are by your cars at 11:15. We will all have to be briefed about the cavalcade and the route that the cars have to take, so make sure you are by your cars still at this time.

Entrance to the track
We will be moved to the track at 12:15 in preparation for the cavalcade - if you aren't with us by this point - get a seat in the stands!

World Record Attempt Cavalcade
This will start at 13:20. Get your friends ready to video this at this time. 20mph limit must be adhered to and stay within 2 car lengths of the person in front of you.

If we've done all of the above by this point, we can all park up and have a chat about being in the book of Guiness World Records

COMMUNICATION

One thing that was lacking last time was communication!!. This year, we have several volunteers that will have copy forms for you to fill in (if you forgot to fill them in - and you will be shamed if you do!) and will be wearing hi-viz vests at the MR2 holding area before the briefing. Please approach us if you have any questions or need help.

For those of you with walkie talkies, we will all be on channel 2

If anyone is unsure what they have to do on the day - please come and find one of the MR2 WRA organisers wearing a high-viz vest (not any old silverstone staff) or ask someone to point you in the direction of us.

So - to summarise,

Make sure you bring:

1) Driving License
2) Green Wristband
3) Yellow Vehicle Pass
4) Silverstone activity registration form
5) GWR participants form (HANDED IN TO A WRA ORGANISER!!)

Remember those 5 things and we're on to a winner

Hope to see you all there

HM & The WRA Team

Thanks we were getting some new PR stickers made up to give away, and it occurred to us that it would be nice to make some of them commemorative to the WRA2 to give away.

We have had some commemorative stickers printed to give away to those paticipating in the WRA2 on Sunday at Silverstone.

All you need to do is come and find us before or after the event at Silverstone, you won't miss us, theres two Silver Roadsters and a Black Mk2, all with the MR2 Only Magazine logo on the bonnet, we will also have a few back issues and the current issue available at discounted prices.

Apparently it needs to be filled in `thou there is supposed to be some spares knocking around at the event. 194 cars going so far! :D . Lets hope we can pull this off :roll: :+:

Yep got everything ready - we've both filled in the form that came with the wristbands, done the WR participants form each (just to be on the safe side incase one of us doesn't fancy driving), filled in the yellow form with the cars reg, put some blu-tack in (to attach it to the windscreen with) and put the paper bit of my driving license in the folder I've stuck everything in.

Left to do is: check the car over on Saturday - engine levels/tyre pressures etc, charge the Sat-Nav and get some matchsticks for propping the eyes open with having to get up at 5am to get ready and get to South Mimms for 6.30! (last point is a joke by the way :lol:)

GOOD TURN OUT OF 28 MK1's IN TOTAL

Just a shame we couldnt get all the Mk1s together as ther was about the same number of Mk3s and it wouldnt have taken that much organising to do If we had let all the Mk2s sort them selves out as they had let them go first and then the mk1s and 3s follow shame really but never mind :+:

Anyone know the final Number? I heard 208 being banded round?

One of the official videos taken by us is now up on You Tube

www.youtube.com/watch?v=1oEnYpX6Ytk (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1oEnYpX6Ytk)

If that link doesn't work (as you can see I don't know what Im doing) if you do a search for it Im sure you will find it -

If anyone is good at counting fingers, toes or calculator we'e not bothered and would like to send us in how many they can count going through we would like confirmation from that video before we send in the figures to Guinness. (We do have the figures here but is would be nice if people agree with our figures) If you can send how many you count to me at info.mr2only @ ntlworld.com or PM me that would be great

Brilliant Day - and wouldn't have missed it for the world. Issue 16 out next week with the write up and pictures of yourself of course

To add to my recent post just to say thanks to everyone that turned up to make this day possible,can't believe the small minorty of idiots on different forums who have posted in such a negative way,if we didn't get the record it will be a day i will not forget.Anyone for WRA3 will be bigger and better for sure :+:

Well done Mick and everyone else. I am not sure what people can say to be negative. Ignore them.

I wasn't there on the day (It was the day after my 40th birthday party and I would have had to be up at 6am to get there on time, not going to happen and would have been over the limit anyway) but fully supported the idea and would definitely try to attend next time.

Hope to get to Santa Pod but not sure about camping yet....

I went to this and I must say it was one of the best events I've attended!!

Bonus as JTS was also on aswell!

I thoroughly enjoyed myself, apart from melting in the shear heat waiting to go on track, but I'd be well up for RA3 :D

Glad you lot enjoyed it, will never forget that day in a hurry,was running around like a headless chicken trying to organise things it payed of in the end.Even if we didn't get the record it was a true experience with all MR2s in one place going around the Silverstone track.Now when shall i do WRA3 lol
