Omi Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 The final details for the Scumball have now beeen confirmed. Hotels are reserved and ferry is booked. Details have all been agreed and now the only thing we've got to do is buy the Ring tickets, and double-check that they aren't going to impose restrictions or anything silly. Confirmed Event Dates: Start: Thursday, July 6th 2006, meeting at our hotel in Nottingham, close to Donington GP circuit (evening). Finish: Monday, July 10th 2006, as we return to Dover at about 5pm. Confirmed Event Costs: £599 entry, for 2 people in a standard-sized car. - This will include (but not neccessarily limited to): Hotel accommodation near Donington, Ferry Crossing to Europe, Hotel near Brussels, 8 laps of the Nordschliefe over Saturday and Sunday open sessions, 2 nights accommodation at the Nürburgring and return Ferry Crossing home. There will be at least one evening meal included, and four breakfasts. We're also looking to include a DVD of proceedings along the event, entertainment and a decent-sized room at each stop for us all to get drunk together. - Additionally, anything else we can blag between now and then will be included. As we promised originally, this is the Tesco's Value brand of driving excursions, so the worse you expect it to be, the more surprised you are when you have a great time! We've done the maths and we know how much money is left after we've paid the bills... It's just a case of how far we can stretch that budget. This isn't going to be a polished, fancy, supremely organized run, but then you're not paying a 5-figure entry fee and driving Ferraris. I solemnly swear to do the very best I can though! Event Application: By the time you read this, the Apply page on the website will be live. - Go to the page and download the .zip file which constitutes your application pack (no expense spared... absolutely none). This will contain the terms and conditions that you (punter) and us (organiser) will be adhering to, the full application form for the details of you, your passenger and your proposed vehicle. Special dietary requirements, fancy dress, bra size etc etc etc. - If you haven't decided on your car yet, don't worry. We just wanted to start laughing early so we can keep a straight face when we meet you. - We will NEED to know before the end of May in order to arrange logistics on the ferry. To keep everything above-board, we'll accept entry fee by cheque or bank transfer. Please email with bank details if you wish to use this method. - Cheques should be made payable to: "Scumball" Closing date for entries will be early in June, but as places are limited, get in as soon as you can to avoid disappointment. If you've got any questions, please feel free to direct them to me on email, or on the Forum if you think they are of interest to everyone... CHARITY: New web page also Live, complete with a bit of a bargain... - Have a look. GALLERY: Please submit suitable pictures of your Hero-Chariot and I'll stick them in the Gallery.

Soapsuds Posted February 7, 2006 Report Share Posted February 7, 2006 [ QUOTE ] Out of interest, how many Scumballers will be "on tour"? [/ QUOTE ] There are about 35 on the 'list' posted on the forum. There is potential for some to drop out when the crunch comes - i.e paying your £600 entry fee!!! Jon / Omi have limited entrants to 60. There are a few off here going also COME ON - we need more TSN'ers..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
