My Lola is 1978 so too young too.
Has been decades since the 911 was at Prescott, Loton or Shelsley Walsh.

If I get in I will have to drive even more carefully than usual, esp if there are 15 DDK Judges watching...

More like 40 DDK judges Graham!

b*gger, my 912E has a cylinder compression issue caused by an exhuast valve. Its now in the garage, but they are really busy so crossing everything that its back in time. Otherwise i'll be in the 986

wouldn't worry ... I've no idea what car I'm going to be in yet

Hi, just wandered if there was a WhatsApp (or similar) group for the weekend for those attending?

Whilst on Shelsley Walsh….
Will any of our intrepid DDK hillclimbers be competing at the Classic Noatalgia meeting?

Hopefully - have an entry in and the 914's going to Steve Kerti's Classic Fabrications when I get back from SoCal in a couple of weeks following it's little off-track excursion in Brittany. I don't think (he says optimistically) that the damage is as bad as I first thought, but only a Celette jig will tell...

To KS:

Kieth, Shelsley usually send their entry list out about 4 weeks ahead of the meeting so we should know if we are IN or OUT in about 2 weeks time, but I think it may be a bit later.
Annie I think will send a note to those who are out or on a reserve list at about the same time.

Right folks, not long to go….

Clive has added an update to the main thread in the events page for those who are having the Saturday evening meal, please take a read.

We have now set up WhatsApp groups for attendees for important announcements, this will be used nearer the event and on the day to get any important info out that needs to be communicated quickly. This is an outward msg only group you won’t be able to reply.

There is a separate WhatsApp group for discussion, where anyone in it will be able to reply. This is for those who want to be able to message amongst attendees, to arrange getting to the bar, or “where is everyone?” etc etc

We have everyone’s numbers who has registered so if you are happy to be added to the group please let me know.
