I know show season is almost over for 2014 but as ever I like to be pro active through the colder months giving you guys a chance to give input on what shows we do next year, but remember regional local events are just that so it may not suit people from other areas of the UK but if wishing to use the passionford name and book a stand yourself and organise it then simply talk to me and if I can help I will, usual candidates for shows will always be some rs events as well as classic ford for pre 1991 cars in 2015 and ford fair as well as Our Ace cafe birthday bash and the new yorkraceway thrash and the BTCC

so any suggestions are welcome, any spamming or off topic remarks will be removed

Jay,

Knebworth is always a good one.

And i'm still thinking...

Cheers, John

STeve

uxbridge and BTCC will suit you my onion wearing friend


I do enjoy knebworth myself John but getting decent attendee numbers for a stand is a tough ask

Jay,

slimwynn

I wanted to do the BTCC this year but people were simply too slow to pay or show interest which was crazy as they saved over a Ł100 per person on tickets, there is a minimum requirement of 25 cars to book a club with them, as for the other shows some yes some no but plenty of time to gather the masses input

stu20004x4

Id be up for BTCC next year for sure

Ace cafe is a must attend imo great show and venue

Aylesford priory all ford is the one show i didnt see a PF stand at, i went with RSOC Kent. Its on again in september

Ford fair, as big as it was, wasn't as good as i thought it would be tbh but is a must

Wings and wheels was the best show of the year for me, great cars, planes and entertainment for the kids

STeve

iTrader: (11)

as I mentioned stu some of those shows are regional really and wont attract our guys from other areas hence pf not having a stand but as I have mentioned nothing to stop anyone organising a regional stand at any event around the uk they just need to ask first before using our name

Fil

for me the same as this year

Ace cafe
classic ford
uxbridge
ford fair

then depending on the dates and my shifts ( which i allready know for 2015 so just waiting on show dates )

Modified Live might be of some interest Steve as it runs along side Time Attack but obviously date and location will affect numbers ?

Jay makes a valid point of maybe Gatecrashing another manufacturers show, the Ford days are becoming a much of a muchness ?

Jay,

iTrader: (4)

Or a any make show is usc still going ?

STeve

iTrader: (11)

normally same day as ford fair Jay, but all future publishing shows have a cloud over them at moment due to new ownership and no input as to if they will still be going ahead for 2015

STeve

iTrader: (11)

all comes down to interest and actually getting payments off folk for shows as without club backing of financial support I cant pay until last minute once I have everyones payments which is a real nightmare booking any event out of the norm

cossie daz

Ace cafe
Ford fair
Rsoc national day

Maybe a stand at a Rwyb at pod ?

Ade500

iTrader: (1)

I'm up for

RS Central show
Ace Cafe
Classic Ford
Uxbridge autoshow
Ford Fair

And as Daz said maybe a rwyb day at the pod

STeve

iTrader: (11)

nice one chaps as there are plenty of rwyb days at the pod throughout the year

Sinbad

iTrader: (1)

It's simple Steve, if folk want to go then they pay and pay on time. We gave up babysitting years ago mate

Jay,

iTrader: (4)

Set sensible cut off dates that help you plan better Steve

STeve

iTrader: (11)

if you get too strict you end up with half empty stands so its a case of finding a happy medium

Jay,

iTrader: (4)

not if people actually want to go its not as if the ticket are exspensive

dean9595

Was there not a rolling road day this year ?

Classic ford
Ace cafe
Ford fair

STeve

iTrader: (11)

STeve

iTrader: (11)

Fil

Any idea on what sort of time this goes on sale and needs to be booked by?

cossie daz

What about time attack at brands ?

STeve

iTrader: (11)
