Good evening guys. Just some update. I met with the event organizer yesterday at yas circuit and got the following info.
1. As emalied to Sir Jay, they will be building a temporary drift track just outside the entrance of the north grand stand. Perspectiove drawing of track already forwarded to Sir Jay. According to the organizer and as per the drawing, they will be using solid timber as the surface or the track and will paint it black. Do you think our cars will slide properly on a painted timber surface? Guys, I need your comments on this at the soonest please. Since laying out an extra lenolium on the timber will be over their budget. The reason why they are building a track is because the original surface of the area are made from brick tiles and definitely, we can not slide on the brick tiles. Sir Jay, can u please post their drawing here. Thanks a lot!
2. They will provide zebra tapes and I requested for a quantity of at least 20 pieces to make sure that we will not run short compared last adrenaline. But guys, we have to layout the track as per your design.
3. Assembly / meeting time is 14:00 hours (2:00 pm) sharp. If I am not mistaken, we will all meet at the north grand stand gate. This, I will confirm later. But we really have to be there by 2 pm sharp for the preparation and layout of the track. Gate will open for public at exactly 16:30 (4:30 pm).
4. I will be meeting with Fiona (but without Shrek - hehehe!) again on Thursday to collect our t-shirts and passes for our guest. As I have mentioned before, i will try to ask some extra passes so the others could bring extra guest but still, this is not confirmed yet. I will immediately post on Thursday night whether or not extra passes are available and how many. Lets just hope that they can spare some!
5. Lastly as a reminder, those 24 drivers on the list must come to the event and bring their kit just in case if they really make a roll call.
That's it guys. Any comment on no. 1 please advise immediately.
@Sir Jay, is it okay if I give your contact number to the track builder since they want to ask some technical matter particularly with the material they will use in building the track? Once you give me your go signal, then I will do so. They want to talk with you tomorrow if possible. Thanks a lot!
I'll post more update soon.
Cheers!
