I would like to come along if there's a space left? Any or either is fine by me.
Hell, even as Accredited Media, I haven't got in THERE!
Fantastic opportunity, and a HUGE thank you for what you do. And of course, to the good Doctor Ulrich.

Like everyone else on here am staggered by you managing to get a result on this James, and without the level of effort you've put in over the past few years doubt that Audi would have given the group the time of day.

I'd like to chuck my hat into the ring for consideration on this - with a mild preference for the earlier time.

That was a real OMG moment - Well done that man.


Present them with Ten-Tenths car stickers as a reward for being fine hosts (You may be able to suggest a place to stick them)

Good work fella.

On the off-chance only 19 other people have applied. Yes, please, for me, either group.

ZOMG!!! I'm gutted I won't be able to take part in this tour (not that I would have been guaranteed a spot, but still...)

Absolutely incredible you've been able to put this together, have it die, and get it brought back from the dead. And with Audi no less. Job well done, mate. This just shows me I'm chatting with the right group of fans.

I can't wait to hear about this first hand on Saturday.

wow!!! You already proved you could do great things, but this one is just unbelievable!

I can't believe you got me automatic entry, I'm not sure I deserve it, and I just can't thank you enough

I don't know yet what I'll do during the day, but you can count me in the first group

You're very welcome Bernard!

It's important that your incredible generosity in hosting our Saturday morning meetings is recognised, along with your photographic contributions which we all enjoy so much. This is just a very small thank you for everything you do for us.

Initial groups listing........

The majority of places are easily allocated, but the last few will need rather more consideration. As stated in my original post, your activity/contributions on 10Tenths are considered the most important criteria. In the case of Elaviel, she was kind enough to give up her place last year (having attended the visits the previous 2 years) in order to give somebody else the opportunity. As a thank you, I promised she would get a place in 2011, which I have done.

GROUP 1 - 12:15
Aysedasi
bernard b
batmobile
Mal
isynge
Dani Filth
Simmi
Kpy
TBA
TBA



GROUP 2 - 13:15
PascaLM

GT6
Elaviel
Nobster
Down FOrce
Tim the Grey
Truckosaurus

TBA



I am very sorry to say that I am unable to allocate further places at this time. My apologies to those who are (so far) disappointed.

Those who have requested a place (or asked to be considered for a place) and have not been allocated to one of the groups are 'under consideration', along with those members who have PM'd me their requests. I am also aware of several other members who have not yet come forward, but would automatically qualify for a place as long standing contributors on 10Tenths.

Ok, I've slept on this and deliberated further this morning before making my final decision..........

Coach Ep - You're in, and will take the final place in the second group. You will be the second Dutchman in that group alongside Nobster. Welcome aboard!

My decision on who will take the final two places in the first group has been a difficult one. But, I was unable to build a strong case for any of the remaining members who requested a place (in terms of length of membership, post count and overall contribution to 10Tenths). I have therefore decided to go with my heart on this occasion.

The final 2 places in the first group will go to tonypowe and TPowers_astonmartian who are the 3rd and 4th members of our little group this year (to be known forthwith as teamDOT ).

My apologies to those I have had to disappoint. Keep posting and contributing on 10Tenths and I am sure you will all merit places on future visits.




The final group listings are as follows:

GROUP 1 - 12:15
Aysedasi
bernard b
batmobile
Mal
isynge
Dani Filth
Simmi
Kpy
tonypowe
TPowers_astonmartian

GROUP 2 - 13:15
PascaLM
lemansfan
GT6
Elaviel
Nobster
Down FOrce
Tim the Grey
Truckosaurus
Gilles lives!
Coach Ep

Coach Ep - I'll PM my mobile number to you in due course. You can call or text me if you have problems finding us next Friday. We shall look forward to meeting you!


Please keep checking back - I will post a full update regarding our arrangements for next Friday before Ayse and I leave for Le Mans on Monday.
