Subject to what Tom says - I think a joint stand would be a good idea?

erm have spoken to the mk1 chap organising this for the club and he wants a mk1 club stand only.
however the club policy is to welcome all mk1's to any event stand whether a member on not.
unfortunately this would exclude MK2's

But - this will not be the case for all mk1 club events - it depends who is organising it. for all the ones i do they will be run similar to the santa pod one: run as a mk1 club stand open to all marks where appropriate, or any mk1's on a show stand.

the next one i do - rotorstock will be open, and also japshow at pod

hope this helps explain the position we're in here for everyone

What I meant was: Loads of interest = Official IMOC presence (Gazebo, stand) Less interest = "See you there", discounted entrance tickets

Im sure im gonna get flammed for this but here goes.

Why not join the mr2oc stand and show unity thro out the mr2 comunity?

Could have a joint stand? As many peeps on here are members of both.

Just seems daft that theres 2's out there that may not end up on a stand cos of inter club reverlry!

Lets all be friends, so what you all say?

I imagine MR2OC would probably want their own stand, I agree we are all MR2 owners but the clubs tend to like their individual identities!

James of course you can, as long as you put an IMOC sticker in the car :wink:

Would be better to have an IMOC stand - I went on the mr2oc stand last year (thanks for the ticket James :D) but didn't know any of the other peeps, plus I would rather show up for the IMOC crew as I spend more time on here! :lol:

:?: Is the IMOC stand booked yet?

I wondered if we should ask the organisers if we can have our stands next to each other so we can have a 'get together' MK1 Club and IMOC. :mrgreen:

(As it is a 'show' type event the MK1 club stand is open to any MK1's if you are not on the IMOC stand- but you need to contact me or steve Hallett to get you stand tickets.)

I'll prod Tom and see if we have.

To get on the IMOC stand you only need to drive to it once you've paid entry :wink:

Would be nice to know of numbers before hand though.
