Ryan Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 As it has only been a few days since our last event, it seems only fair to let you know about our next one. Our first play day for 2009 will be at Brick Kiln Farm near Alton/Four Marks on 18th January 2009 between 10am and 4pm. The is a small but varied site, with something for all levels of competence. Full details and map here. The cost is £20 per vehicle. Since we always get the same questions in the run up to an event, I thought I'd shamelessly copy a part of a post (full blurb here) written by FridgeFreezer on our club forum to clarify the club's position on play days: To drive at a Shire LRC event you must already be a member, which means at the very least the membership officer has received and processed your membership/renewal and added your details to the membership database. You cannot join & drive on the same day, or join the night before, etc. etc. as it does not give us enough time to process your membership. So, PLEASE try to get your membership/renewal in well in advance of any event you want to attend - it's best to allow at least two weeks for your membership to be processed. Quote
steve200TDi Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 Hi, I should be there, will renew my membership as well.....I've successfully completed my first year off roading! Can't wait for the next. Steve Quote
FridgeFreezer Posted January 1, 2009 Posted January 1, 2009 I'll not bother going out in the cold to wash the 109 then see you all there! Quote
Ryan Posted January 15, 2009 Author Posted January 15, 2009 Don't forget, SLRC are at Brick Kiln this Sunday. See you in the woods Quote
rusty_wingnut Posted January 15, 2009 Posted January 15, 2009 Brick Kiln is a piece of la Pissine, completed everything they had to offer with my 90 on Saharas Quote
FridgeFreezer Posted January 15, 2009 Posted January 15, 2009 Brick Kiln is a piece of la Pissine, completed everything they had to offer with my 90 on Saharas If you just drove round in the ruts then I can imagine that would be true... I'm willing to bet we could get you stuck more than once. Quote
dirkthe1 Posted January 15, 2009 Posted January 15, 2009 is this a suitable one for spectators?its not too far from me! Quote
FridgeFreezer Posted January 15, 2009 Posted January 15, 2009 is this a suitable one for spectators?its not too far from me! Certainly is, come and say "hi" I'll probably be in the 109 which is difficult to hide Quote

steve200TDi Posted January 18, 2009 Posted January 18, 2009 Hi all, I had a great day taking part (competing!) in the punch challenge. I think it was a great success, can't wait for the next! I'll get some pic up here later and also send all my pics to photos (at) shirelrc.com I thought my power steering was a bit heavy on the way home. Later found my pas belt sitting in my diff guard tray at the front! See you all at Hogmore! Steve Quote
v8bertha Posted January 18, 2009 Posted January 18, 2009 You did pretty wel yourself today Steve, I think you were only 4 or 5 punches short of the winners, so well done It was a fun day... Jules did a crackin' job of running the event, well done matey Quote
steve200TDi Posted January 18, 2009 Posted January 18, 2009 You did pretty wel yourself today Steve, I think you were only 4 or 5 punches short of the winners, so well done Excellant, not bad for my first attempt! Brick Kiln seems an excellant site for a punch challenge as the site is quite small, so a little easier than say Slab Common! Steve Quote
jules Posted January 18, 2009 Posted January 18, 2009 If people who took part are intrested I'm sure we can talk to Chip into putting the scors on the website Quote

miketomcat Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 i seem to recall winching TJ out of that very same hole last time we were there. although it looks like this time he actualy managed to get himself out of the truck last time he couldn't open the doors mike Quote

I am on the LR diet, spend money on LR parts rather than food! The recovery did eat three winches. Thanks again to all who helped and those who took the tiddle too! Quote
hoarebag Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 Excellent day out. Cheers Jules and co. Hope there's another one soon... Quote
