Most certainly. 'The Road to Monaco' will be officially 'launched' in the Bruce McLaren Trust tent just prior to the signing session starting at 11am on Friday the 16th - in fact I'll start a new thread...

Thank you. I will make sure I am at the tent for the launching and to then get my book signed.

JAFA, you might want to collect your ERC poster just before, then get Howden to sign both! (You might need a silver marker for that though.) It is a big poster, so you might also want to bring along a 600mm cardboard tube!

I have just picked up the posters. Thrilled to bits with how they have turned out. A pretty hefty weight they are too! 850mm tall x 600mm wide.

If anyone wants one posting, I am more than happy to save you one and post after the event at the cost of postage plus a 600mm card tube. Although we aren't racing until weekend 2, I will have some available for weekend 1.

Not sure where I'll be located, but all being well, I should have #70 Marcos there alongside the PIC display area, near Hamptons.

Weekend 2, we are located on the Hampton's side of the roadway, but I'm not sure we'll get 50+ cars in there plus the Sports GTs.

As usual Ray, great photos. Looking forward to the meeting. The Monty looks great and that's where I will be over the weekend.

Hi guys, I'll be wearing my brown Roaring Season T-shirt tomorrow, and I typically wear a pink (yeah I know...) hi vis. Come and say hey if you see me about. Here's a few of today's that I've sorted so far. Many to come :)

I was very lucky to be allowed to get the above opportunity...

HMC fields is mind blowingly awesome. Sports Sedans are fantastic to see, everything is so far, swell! See you there tomorrow I hope.

I have done 200 A3 posters celebrating Sports Sedans from 1977 - 2015.
They are full gloss colour done as a collage and they are all a free give away to the fans.
Please come and see me- light blue XA Coupe 083 over the weekend to get yours, no limit per fan.
TonyG- send me an email with your mailing address, also the Aussie Tranzam guys are grabbing them as theres nothing like it over there.-my wife spent about 80 hours on it getting them just right.
