Parade Lap in Honour of Dan aka Iridium



Sash

Hi guys

After hearing the exceptionally sad news about Dan passing away I thought it would be a fitting tribute to him - a true enthusiast - to celebrate his life with a lap of honour around Rockingham Race Circuit. Ive arranged with Mark Dow for those of you going to FCS this year be able to take part in a parade lap of the track in honour of Dan.

The lap will be taking place at 13:30 around the full banked oval, at a slow steady pace, no racing or overtaking as health and saftey wont allow.
Each person wanting to take part will need to come and see me in the admin marquee to sign a form and collect a pass - this will let the track marshalls know where your going. Anyone without a pass or signed form will not be allowed on the track.

Im hoping some members of v6clio.net will be able to join us too.

If i could as people to put their names down so we can get a rough idea of numbers.

Thanks.

Putting your name down will NOT get you entry to the show, tickets must be purchased in advance from www.frenchcarshow.co.uk

Very well done Sarah and a fitting tribute!

I will be coming to find you for my pass. Such a sad loss yet an awesome way to pay respects to a true petrol head and a genuinely inspirational guy.

I'd love to join the parade lap but I have a ricer so cant make it inside the club areas. I would say if any Cliosport member is on a different stand this year at FCS who wants to take part in the parade lap please still go and see Sash in the marquee, she will have the final say but I'd hope that the parade lap isn't restricted to clio's only.

Kneel I really don't think it matter on cars tbh. As most of us on here the love is for the car not the brand


I don't see it bein a problem from FCS's point of view, there will be a few none french there this year too

No I dont see it being an issue, just for me I dont think theres gonna be a nissan stand. However Im hoping I can jump in some-one elses car on the way round for the parade lap, we shall see.

I really hope people are sensible and dont spoil this like other 'Parade laps' in the past

Will be a very nice tribute

Not sure if off to FCS but if do go I will defiantly do the lap, so not adding my name yet.
 
  Family Bus
I won't be going in my car, but will jump in with someone for the lap

Fantastic, fitting idea Sarah.

Hi all

Don't worry about numbers, if this gets big and looks like it needs extra time we will donate the appropriate track time so we can accommodate this. The oval is 1.5 miles long so that is a hell of a lot of cars. As we are not using the infield area (trade from last year) we will be able to stack up to 300 cars in there so this is not a problem.

I understand Dans mum etc may be coming to this so I cannot think of a better way to remember Dan.

The parade will be more than one, that's for sure as I would imagine there will be people still emerging when the lead car does one lap. I am also confident everyone will be sensible in the circumstances.

We need to think about who will lead the procession.
