It's surprising how many folks are anxious about turning up and fitting in, or getting to know others. I get that and fully appreciate it can be difficult. However, you're not going to find a better bunch of folks. It's like some big, weird extended family, but without the inbreeding. I think. It's often been said that the people/members make this forum work (which is true) and this applies to CSF, too.

I was anxious last year as it was my first time, but it was a fantastic experience and everyone is nice and friendly.

I'm more worried about getting the car ready in time now.

What are the numbers like in terms of who's coming from CS and who's coming from other clubs?

I have no idea whether I'd recognise 90% of attendees from on here or whether CS is just going to be a small percentage of those attending.

Stupid newbie question ; is there any kind of group chat for the weekend?

As a borderline recluse I'm concerned I'll just turn up, do the track time, and f**k off home without actually putting any faces to names, and if I wanted to do that, I'd go to Snetterton and save myself 12hrs in the car.
Just look out for my car, it’s very noticeable (in my display pic)
More than welcome to come chat and have a drink etc so no need to feel recluse

Don’t over think it mate, everyone is sound. If you see a red Cayman, please come and say hi. I’m bringing my lad along this year. Always happy to have a chat, cup of coffee and introduce you to the people I know. Don’t get anxious, everyone knows no one at some point. It’s a great event and you can be as social or anti social as you want to be. I promise you’ll enjoy the event and come away wondering why you were worried. I’ll be there from Friday afternoon and would love to grab a coffee with anyone and slag Kyle off.

I joined CS when I was in a bad state mentally and physically, was in the process of rebuilding myself and my life while waiting on a long old list of surgeries.
I've had loads of folk help me out over the years, not just with the car but with a good chat and a laugh, in some cases some lemon meringue pie 👌
Met plenty of proper legends (ironically good olde Sharky being the first, you lucky devil!) hence why I don't mind helping the club where I can.

ON that note, I'm ever so sorry to say that the 172 Cup is sadly - not suitable for use at the moment. I'd shaken it down the other day and all seemed fine, after moving it back in to the unit it was clicking its knackers off, suspected driveshaft initially but turns out its a little more than that. I simply don't have the time and the means to get it sorted before Saturday.

There will be an announcement at 8pm tonight, so hang tight 😘

Lemon meringue pie... happy times... we need to do it again soon! Lucky? Yeah - I'll take it if it means I meet good people along the way!

I won't lie, I'm looking forward to this year's event. It's a bit of a highlight in a pretty bleak period if I'm honest!!!! Bring it on.

@Krarl kept offering me a cream pie before I met him too. I turned him down sadly.

Anybody know what time the cafe opens on Saturday morning?

Pondering bringing the gas stove but if it opens early enough I won’t bother

It's mostly CS i'd say, but @andybond brings quite a few Turbo Renault lot.

Not sure how many represent from 197/200net and RSMegane.
We are mostly friendly , vaccinated against most tropical diseases and all car enthusiasts.

Please come and say hello to us. We are bringing a gazebo of win with TurboRenault.co.uk emblazoned on it.

The best bit about CSF is that we are all there for the same things ; cars and fun.

And throwing up after drinking too much. Always that dodgy last can.
