  1. I believe there was some concern about the G&T DVD being out of stock / Long waiting time for re-stock. If it is of any help our DVD arrived today - Fully Wrapped unused NEW. :)

     

    And that happened today at Stiggins Towers! Chuffed - wrapped & unused; I was worried that I may get an ex-rental copy :)

  2. Credit to Steve for trying to push this meeting but Daves point is bang on, nobody pays to watch all these formula and in the end it just devalues the whole product, people leave cold and bored. Now if you want a big car turn out have a sellers meeting, you could run 3 heats !!!!! Steve pushes these meetings to the hilt and should be given some proper sat night solo meetings, thats if he can get the stadium. Been a tough 2009 lets hope 2010 has good car turn outs,how anyone can can say 30 cars is good is beyond me.

    Well I pay to see them all. What's a 'sellers meeting' BTW?

  3. 30 cars "Healthy" ? More like Pathetic . ! And as per usual these days the meeting will drag on and on for at least 4 hours, maybe 5 . Wake up all you promotors, speed the meetings up and try to finish them in 3 hrs especially at this time of year !

    Woahh steady on! For the last shale meeting of the season - a points-free one to boot - I reckon that 30 *is* healthy. Run 2/3rds and have heats of 20 - absolutelty perfect around BV. Two heats of 15 would do for me TBH.

     

    And leaving aside your criticism of the drivers for not turning up, please take into account the fact that BV's fence can often need running repairs, not to mention delays for yellows/driver rescue etc. I'm looking forward to seeing 1s, 2s & minis on Sunday - the only way we'd get a shorter meeting is if you did away with one of the formulas.

  4. Rich, the DVD set came through today - and they look brilliant - cheers :(

     

    Unfortunately, I won't be able to critique them just yet, because my wife got there first & announced that, because I hadn't told her what I wanted for Christmas, then the DVD set would be *it*.

     

    Looks like Boxing Day is sorted then :thumbsup:

     

    I'll come back here then & add my thanks.

    Apologies for replying to my earlier posting.

     

    Rich (and I hope this doesn't embarrass you):

     

    Well I finally got my eyes on the DVD set and I have to say that they are absolutely excellent. The camerawork is nothing short of superb throughout. Everyone who I've shown these to during the week have asked me which company produced the discs!

     

    What's more, you seem to have a knack for knowing who is leading & being able to follow (or, more accurately, predict!) the major lead changes throughout - all this while trying to film the action. I still can't do that without the added burden of a camera.

     

    A huge thank you from me :lol:

    Looks like Boxing Day is sorted then :whistling:

  6. Ipswich photos updated to include a photo of presentation by heat one sponsor Stevenage Insurance Services Ltd and Stoxphotos.com This was one photo I was happy to be in rather than taking it!

     

    Thanks to Kev Wickham of www.kw-photos.co.uk for the photo.

    :thumbsup: I see what you mean Colin - can't see where your hands are, mind :thumbsup:

  7. I'd love one of these - especially as this was the first WF I went to. Perhaps I could commission Tim to do a new one where Smithy beats DC across the line? :D

     

    I'll be there tomorrow with my wallet!

     

    What is Dave Chisholm doing these days BTW?

  8. Chris! Gift horse? Mouth?

     

    I've got an old Sony Dav-S800 which is giving me problems with another DVD I bought from an ebaY seller (see elsewhere on the for sale/wanted board).

     

    So I'll give one a go - your choice of disc. And if it works, I'll buy some more from you - how's that?

     

    Cheers :lol:

  9. Sadly, we have a 4ish yr-old 'home cinema in a box' system - seemed a good idea at the time. I don't know how well a second disc spinner will go down (I'll need to keep the first box because that's got all the surround amps in it). I've just had a (swift) look at the manual and it doesn't even make mention of anything other than pre-recorded DVDs.
