Joint meet with the Volvo Performance Club?

Post by mrsmopp » Wed Mar 22, 2006 9:09 pm

Hi All,

Quick intro (it'd be rude not to) I am part of the admin team over at the volvo performance club and we have heard a lot about you guys from some of our members who have/have had 480's.

With this in mind I thought it would be good if we could do a joint meet together?

We are planning a meet in August at Bruntinthorpe Proving ground (Leicestershire) for a track event, we are joining forces with some of the Saab boys too and would love to see some 480's there too - you dont have to put your car on the track as there will be plently of s spectating.

Rough costs are £100 for an open pit, £15 for passengers.

Either that or we have a few other events lined up this year.

Any interest?

Regards
Moppy x
