From the 2012 anouncement:
Specialists will be on hand to provide us with technical and hands on assistance over the course of the event. This will involve engine tuning, wheel alignment, minor bodywork re-graining / repairs, torsion bar adjustments, etc. etc.! Many more 'activities' are planned, details to follow.

I would like to have an engine tuning, wheel alignment, some minor body regraining and maybe some time with Mr. Nick T to get out the final quirks from the engine. Will it be necessary to wait until 2012 or is there a shortcut to the waiting list? Mr. Tony would be glad to hear there will not be any reason to change the head gaskets as of now so there may be some time available left for drinking.

PS. Can't wait. I am almost packing.

I've had a lot of beer recently and it didn't do me any good at all!

8:00-9:30 – Breakfast

Lunch/dinner available in the bar all day until 8:15 (last orders) and in the restaurant from 6:00 until 8:15 (last orders) (a 50% discount is automatically applied to all food you order off of the menu and put on your room bill)

Afternoon – help/watch Arran assemble the marquee in the car park!

7:30 – meet in the bar for drinks (optional) then and sit together in the restaurant for dinner (optional). A special three course light menu will be arranged, £8 per person will be charged to your room if you opt to join in, or make your own arrangements (see above).





FRIDAY
75 DELOREAN PEOPLE STAYING TONIGHT, WITH 27 CARS
TODAY FROM 11AM THE HOTEL IS EXCLUSIVELY USED JUST BY US


8:00-9:30 – Breakfast

10am-4pm - Rolling road. If you would like to go on it please see Mike or Arran – there is a £45 charge for this, although you can go on more than once if you want (with the same car). This can be added to your hotel bill, or paid to Mike, Maria or Arran directly.
If you have pre-booked and/or pre-paid then you would have benefitted from a discount. PRE-BOOK AND SAVE - CLICK HERE!

10am-5pm: Tech session in the car park:

12:45 Lunch: Buffet in the bar - Sandwiches / chips / sausage rolls / cake etc. - £3 per person will be charged to your room if you opt to join in, or alternatively make your own arrangements (a 50% discount is automatically applied to any other food you order off of the menu and put on your room bill today).

7:30 onwards – Dinner
Salads, olives, bread, then a choice of two main courses, followed by self-serve dessert

9:15 in the restaurant - Rolling Road "awards", followed by Q and A with Stephen Wynne, President of DeLorean Motor Company (Texas)

9:30 Q and A with top secret guest. I know who it is, but for some reason I am not allowed to reveal who it is as yet!
(also Nick Sutton, who is t.b.c.)





SATURDAY
81 DELOREAN PEOPLE STAYING TONIGHT, PLUS 11 NOT STAYING, WITH 30 CARS
TODAY THE HOTEL IS EXCLUSIVELY USED JUST BY US


8.00-9.30 Breakfast

9am-4pm - Tech session in the car park:

10:00 (optional) assemble in the car park to drive to the Classic Car Auction and Autojumble in King’s Lynn, PE30 4NB. £5 entry, gates open at 10am, auction starts at 1pm, although you will miss lunch here if you stay for the auction. Alternatively leave at 12:00 to return here. The catalogue is available here: http://www.angliacarauctions.co.uk/clas ... -2011.aspx

12:45 Lunch buffet in the bar – sandwiches, pastries, samosas, spring rolls with dips, mini quiches, mini fish & chips, mini chicken and chips, mini desserts etc

1.30-4.00 – Giant Scalextric championships (in the restaurant). This is a 4 lane, 160 foot, race track, with pit crew, marshalls, and is timed, with an overall 1st,2nd,3rd and "podium ceremony"!

2.30pm. Chris Nicholson regraining demo on Nick T’s roof in the “Spax tent”

4pm – Short convoy out to somewhere local for a few photos

5.30pm –Back here – rest

Dress up all posh for:
6:30 – cocktails in the bar

7:00 onwards – Dinner (three courses)

8:15 in the restaurant – The “awards ceremony” (brief)

8:30 onwards – Casino Night! This is a professionally organised thing - you will all be provided with chips, there are 3 "real" gaming tables (in the bar/lounge area), and the target is to end the night with the most chips left.
As a result, for those who have been before, there will be another bar seating area in the top section of the restaurant. This area is also the designated music area.

11:15 – Casino Night winner announced / awards.


Most importantly the suggested dress code for the Saturday night is "black tie" - i.e. tuxedo/bowtie for the gents, posh dresses for the ladies. This is not enforced, but you'll find most people will be dressed this way - as we did in October last year.
