Yes Guys we need all the cars we can get for Ballymena and Mosney the web address for this one is www.aovcclassicshow.co.uk (http://www.aovcclassicshow.co.uk) you can submit your entry online think it is about £8 so not expensive to enter.If anyone does submit an entry please let me know so i can keep tabs on the numbers as i said before if we get 8 cars we can get a club pitch which would be great to promote our club and maybe attract more Mr2 mk1 drivers to join us.

Keep the good pr work up :+:
As i said earlier Richard (old Petrol Head) is coming over for the Ballymena show on the 26/6 .He will be arriving in Belfast on the Friday night of the 8.30 boat and he goes home on Sunday on the 11:45 sailing .I will meet him and put him up for the weekend so lets hope once again the weather is kind to us for both Mosney and Ballymena and we get as many cars as we can ,so all you MK1 owners in ireland that are hiding in the cupboards its time to come out :lol:

i thought we did not have enough for a club stand and just put in an individual entry.. but i can ring the secretary directly and let him know..or whats the story morning glory... 8-)

MR2MK1
10th May 2010, 03:20 PM
I have applied for a club stand as we may have 8 entrys ;) but am going to phone and have a chat with them .I applied for individual parking as well but sent a message with the application asking for them to change it for me .I will put club stand parking on The other 3 guys applications when i put them in ,we have five at the minute and maybe we will get Pat as well .Pat what you say :clap: By the way i think we have got another club flag and a gazebo and should be with me before Mosney

10th May 2010, 08:57 PM
Just of the phone with AOVC and have been told if we dont have eight cars we wont get a club stand :evil: , so has anyone any ideas .We need to have eight entrys submitted by the 23rd of May for this to happen.Mark do you think Tim would be interested Spoke to Colm and he cant make it so need to try and pull all the stops out.I think it would be good for the club if we could manage this so guys open to all ideas and Ronnie the use of torture is allowed if you meet any owners on your travels between now and then :lol:

Hi Dan
Great news ,good to have you onboard with us,we need one more car for the club stand.Yes go to the AOVC site and put your entry in and enter the club when it asks about parking .Can you send me your REF numder that you get when you submit your entry so i have them all together. You will need to do it before the 23rd as this is the cut of date for the club stands and also i think the price goes from £8 to £12 which includes a passenger. :clap:
