The point is why should we make the effort to travel and pay £30 + for petrol when all the meets are down south and in the area where the organiser is. This region is too big. We should have separate north east mids and south east mids.

yeh it took me about 2 hours to get to norty but about an hour to find it as i came in the wrong end, but i did spend about 30 quid on petrol as gary stated thats why i wanted it slightly closer so its not as expensive.

Right ive come to a conclusion that Leciester may be a good place, its closer to us up north and u lot down south its next to the M1 straight up from you, closer to birmingham too so we may attract more people. havnt decided where we could meet there but i need to know if we could actually have it here this time, plus if we start askin round now we could get more people from further away like.

Why do we have to have a common meeting point. Why cant we have a sort of rotor so everyone is catered for. Its could be a east mids corsasport summer tour. A meet at every major city in the region.

maybe meet at a place in peterbrough where its nice and scenic jus like the national CS meet. could be good idea plus if its far enough ahead we can actually start postin it so people can book it off now and have no exuse not to come.

yeah ^^^^.... it may be a good time to see who would be interested in a "BIG EM" meet for the whole region!
i also think that peterbrough is pretty much a centre location in the east midlands for all
