hi paul
I'm up for this, let me know if its all agreed. i see your tiger is working okay now, unless you were pushing it :lol: All you need now is a re-wire, and then it will be as good looking inside as it is on the inside. :lol: :lol:
Good luck with the sound system. :wink:

Hi Paul & Alison,

It was a real pleasure to meet you both today. Paul you've found one of the best locations I've seen :wink: . Can't wait to get started. Let's hope the 13th is confirmed. I have to say your Tiger I is stunning. It'll be even better when it sounds as good as it looks.
The buildings :?: My mind is already in overdrive. Maybe we should wait until the 13th and discuss everyones ideas then and run them by the owners for approval. This is really exciting as I believe this will be the first independent proving ground in the UK and it's in the North :D :D .

Thanks Antony

Hi Richie,

Sorry Sunday 13th April is the first provisional meet subject to confirmation from the owners. Once they confirm, Paul will let us all know but I can't see a problem as they were all very enthusiatic today.
Great idea about the banner, I have also asked Stuart from the UKTC for one of their banners and some paraphernalia.

Thanks Antony

hi Anthony
Thanks for the info, didn't know anything about that. Seen Paul on Friday to help him with a few problems with this tank, and forgot to ask him about the proving ground.
Thanks again for the info.
Richie
P.S. also Wiggy on UK Tank Club

Congratulations Paul on securing what looks like an excellent location for the North West owners and undoubtedly the most upmarket running ground in the country!

Good luck with your first meet on Sunday, look forward to seeing some photos next week if the excitement does not get the better of you :wink:
