Well this event it sure seems to have come round quickly.
Currently i will be bringing -
PS2 + Leads
GT4 x2
2 Controllers
1 Memory card (would be very gratefull if you could transfer my current GT4 save to a pc for the weekend)
DFP
3 Multisockets - 2 with 4 plugs, 1 with 6 plugs
Headphones
Various network leads that i will find in the office. not sure about lengths but im sure there are about 5 i can borrow.
Im going to bring along my laptop too. As i understand it there will be another computer at the event but this will be used for recording races? I thought it might be an idea to bring mine incase people want to use the internet, post on gtp etc etc.
I will also bring along my digital camera. Its really easy to put pics from my cam to the laptop due to my laptop having a memory stick slot too so everybody is welcome to use them.
Is there anythign else that may be needed that i might have or can get?

My laptop will be there for transferring of gamesaves and storing results/random track generation, so you'll be accommodated IF we need to use your memory card.
And ain't no-one using it for accessing GTP, not with my supermoderator login details on it!

Woohoo! T-minus 3 days and counting!
Can't wait! Will finish in M'cr around 3pm on Friday and head on down to Newark sometime after that!

Looking forward to seeing you all soon, and 2 exceptional days of racing!

OMG, you actually wired up the heated seat didnt you.....
Headphones are a good idea, well remembered Famine.
Can everyone who wishes to partake in the consumption of alcoholic beverages please let me know what kind you like.
Otherwise, i'll just go buy some on the day.
Im looking forward to seeing you all soon, and feel free to give me a bell on the number issued in Famine's PM if you have any random questions.
Otherwise.... cool.
see you in a bit.

A57. The chain of roundabouts just before the A1 is a great drive (unless your boot is full of chair, and your passenger seat is full of frightened Scotsman).

Id agree with Famine there, the 616 does tend to be a bit blind bends and countryside.
Depends on your state of mind, if youre trying to get there quickly, take the A57, but if you want to chill whilst cruising towards your weekend destination, then take the 616.
Once in newark, follow the straight road that passes the Castle, and turn at the traffic lights that are sandwiched between two pubs. You should then see a large football field and the rest of us lugging heavy equipment into a building on your right.
From the A1, you will be heading into road worx, as you approach them, take the :
A46 Lincoln/ A17 Sleaford/ Northgate Station turnoff,
Go straight into newark, passing McDonalds on your right, stay straight over some lights at the foot of a bridge, and pass a TEXACO garage on your right, turning left at aforementioned traffic lights sandwiched between two pubs, just after.
Then immediately right at the mini roundabout, and ring me, or pull into the school.
If you find yourself at a great big roundabout, with the castle staring you in the face, go round it and back down the hill, cos youve gone too far, then turn right at aforementioned aforementioned traffic lights sandwiched between two pubs.
My fone will be on all the time, so gimme a call if you're stuck.
Anyone requiring a lift from the station, just call me or text and i'll come get you.
Dave George, take the second roundabout entrance to newark near the cattle market/ lorry park, up to the roundabout next to the castle, left, then right at the aforementioned... oh, you'll find it.
See you in a day or so!

Cheers for the directions guys 👍 - with Famine mentioning the chain of roundabouts i think i remember taking that road before when heading to Norfolk.
Sorry, i just can't comprehend what this part of the sentence means - it just doesn't compute for me
