Well I make us at 8: me, KiwiS, SteveR, mjg, obsessed, PeterC2S, kiwi911 and Nigel (pending kiwi911 confirming he's contacted Tony) which is $275 ea. I trust we are OK with that? We might pick up one or two more over the next month.
The prestige group might have been a good option but some of our cars don't qualify for their usual guidelines. Will check with Tony.

Happy either with the above or with Prestige if for any reason there are drop outs. I do like the prospect of running around with similarly minded owners in cars which should be close on performance. Going to be a great day and thanks again for herding the cats!

HDs 16 Dec - Just had an email from Tony:
"Including you I have emails from 6 that are saying they will come.
Here are a couple of choices.
1. We get them to pay $275 now & hope you get 2 more & Gary will approach 3 others that may take spots. If we don’t get the other 2 we will put 3 or 4 of the regular entrants (with appropriate cars obviously) in to make up the numbers & cover the cost. Up side is we will relax the passing rule for your group & you wont get held up with slower traffic.
2. You go to normal entries & run with other cars (groups are limited to 18) downside is the no passing under brakes rule
Can you let me know which way you want to go?"
Unless I hear violent objections I will advise Tony we'll be going for option 1, so you'll be charged $275, we'll sort out the exact costs later, and we will ensure we get a limited size group of solely Porsche or at worse, a small group supplemented with a few other cars. Yeah?

Tony has advise the following have emailed, with my guesses in brackets for RL or other identity:
Peter (PC2S), Jason (NZ964), Matt (mjg), Sean (kiwisean), Steve (EP), Michael (Obsessed?)
Kiwi911 - are you coming? Need to email tony asap pse. I have one other, Nigel who has confirmed with me via email but has yet to email Tony. Looks like we are a go for $275 (pause for objections) less any stragglers to come and we'll get small a Pcar group. Excellent.

Sounds great Jason, and I appreciate all your hard work on this.
And my apologies in advance to everyone if I slow you up on the day. I'll be aware of the problem, and the good news is that you won't have any trouble overtaking me.

I have got a response from Racing Ray - he can do the 16 Dec. His cost is $500 for the day.
This is one-on-one where Ray sits in the passenger seat for a 15min secession and tells you where to point the car, hit the gas and brake.
If there are 4-5 of us it works out at $100-125 each. I would highly recommend this as he will take 2-3 seconds off your lap time as he did with me the first time I used him.
I am happy for 2 slots as I'm trying to hunt another second. Are there any other takers?

NZ964C4 - I assume we are all booked in via you as I haven't confirmed anything directly with Play Day???
