What does everyone want? I am starting to formulate a plan.

Things I like and/or think I worked well previously:

- Trials, good for specatating and driving, a bit of competitive spirit but nothing taken seriously, maybe a few sections or just a reverse of the previous
- Punches, maybe not for all but they aren't too tricky to setup and give some people a challenge and opportunity to think, plan, then cock it up and winch.
- 'Maxi' trial / special stage: not timed or canes, just an interesting section taped off and the challenge being just to complete it.

- a Birty's Bonfire (obviously)

- a few beers (even more obvious)

- award for the person who provides the most entertainment (best if it's due to unintentional carnage

)

Things that might be good too:
- place for RC cars
- mini-quiz where you have to gather clues from places on the site (in Jeeps or on foot, whatever you feel like), prize for winner. could be for non-drivers to provide something else to do?

Non of the above are compulsory and I'm sure there are other ideas - can you just give me an idea about what you want from the weekend please?

Mocaj, that's the funniest thing you've written in 6 months

JamesH · « **Reply #58 on:** February 13, 2013, 07:33:50 PM »

Thanks for adding the dates to the title Gaz.

Any more ideas for activities or itinerary for the event from anyone?

Cockney Boy · « **Reply #59 on:** February 13, 2013, 07:43:15 PM »

Guys count me in for the weekend. But I'll be happy to also camp the Sunday night as it will mean a full day froading rather than packing up lunchtime on the Sunday.

JamesH · « **Reply #60 on:** February 13, 2013, 07:50:08 PM »

I will 100% confirm but from discussions so far the site is ours from lunchtime Friday to Monday morning so people can camp Friday through to Monday if they want. We will also have two portaloos on site but not much else in the way of camping facilities.

JamesH · « **Reply #61 on:** February 17, 2013, 02:49:48 PM »

Costs

Basic fees are:
£25 per day offroading
£5 per night camping

In order to get people confirmed and get some money in we can offer a slight discount for 'weekend' tickets purchased in advance:
£45 for the weekend offroading (no camping)
£50 for the weekend offroading with camping Fri & Sat nights included.

Pay via Birtys checkout (details coming shortly).

We will also setup another thread only for confirmed attendees, you can add your name if you are 100% confirmed whether you have paid in advance or not.

Cockney Boy · « **Reply #62 on:** February 17, 2013, 05:11:25 PM »

James Count me in and tell me where to send the cash, payment in advance shows commitment and perhaps all should do the same

gazjeep · « **Reply #63 on:** February 17, 2013, 06:00:52 PM »

Posted up a separate thread for "Attendees only"

Birty's checkout should be up & running later tonight

gazjeep · « **Reply #64 on:** February 17, 2013, 07:47:45 PM »

Birty's ticket office now open

Cool, thanks Gaz (&Bruce)

Brynjaminjones · « **Reply #66 on:** March 10, 2013, 12:40:37 AM »

I think I'm going to be at this one

I shall be the proud owner of a shiny XJ by then, my last uni exam of the year is on the 17th, and I've just managed to book the weekend off work so I should be able to attend and have a bit of a potter about

I'll add my name to the attendance list once I'm 100%

Green Jeep · « **Reply #67 on:** March 10, 2013, 09:12:56 AM »

I am up for this, finally have some time this year for Birty week stuff.

Will be rolling up with Dutch, nice little trip up from Kernow

Happy days, Maf

We often have the golf ball section on our punch hunts...

Six plastic cups around a small area, each team is given six golf balls, then either the driver or crew man put one ball in each cup, then back to the start, then back around and collect each golf ball, no one is allowed out of the truck and if a golf ball is dropped then a 30 second penalty, good fun...

I can bring cups and golf balls and more punches if you like? We have about 50/60.

Cheers Maf
