Here are the highlights from April's meet. It was a good turnout with a nice turnout of RSs considering the state of the roads with grit!! Well done to those who got their cars out :D :D

Hopefully you have had the chance to see the edition of Fast Ford with the 6 page spread for last years WOSRSOC Regional Day at Kames. Great advertising for the club :D

Shows

A reminder that Cumbria RSOC show is on Sunday 12th May.
This is normally the opening RS show for WOSRSOC, a nice wee run down and a good chance to blow the cobwebs off your car .
Places to be confirmed by 15th April, see the relevant post in Events.

Weekend after is Ford Live at Knockhill on the 19th May. Places to be confirmed by the 25th April, see the relevant post in Events.

We discussed Croft, 9/10 June, and the parking issues for show cars last year being on the un-cut grass whilst non-RS clubs got hardstanding parking. I have phoned the organisers and can't get any reassurance that they will do anything about the parking. I am going to speak to them again.

Additionally the Scottish Car Show has been confirmed as Sunday 21st July. Note that the show has been moved from the Royal Highland Centre to SECC Glasgow. The whole show will now be indoors. Again see the Events section.

Trackday

Trackday for Members at Knockhill is confirmed as Friday 9th August from 6pm to 8pm.

The format will be open pit lane with a maximum of 40 cars, MEMBERS ONLY, although the car doesn't have to be an RS

Track time is £50, second driver £20 and Passengers £5.

Mel will take payments at meetnights so folk can pay up in instalments if they want to.

Fast Ford magazine will be covering the event.

Photoshoot

The first WOSRSOC event is the Photoshoot at the Riverside (Transport) Museum in Glasgow on Sunday 21st April.

People are asked to arrive for 8.30am. The museum staff have asked that we show the cars for a few hours at the front of the museum after the photoshoot.

We have discussed going for a late lunch somewhere afterwards.

This has been confirmed with the venue and the museum have been advertising the event so get your polish out lol!

WOSRSOC Regional Day/weekend 2013

The date for our day is the 30th June 2013. EACC have their committee meeting this week and will confirm the finer details with Dalsy such as gate money etc.

Our show will be on the Sunday, at the moment EACC do not have plans to use the Saturday as the date didn't work for them.

John has put up a post now for volunteers for the show for marshalling, gate, sign in, etc. Please add your name to the post, the more volunteers the less each individual has to do!!!

Merchandise

Anyone who purchases merchandise from Annette before Croft (9/10 June) will be entered into a draw for an item of merchandising.

Please remember all orders have to be paid up front and will be delivered the next month.

Next Meetnight

Next meetnight is 1st May 2013 at the usual venue The Mailcoach, Uddingston.

If you have any topics you would like raise at the meetnight please say .

That's all folks ;)
