Okay we got a bit side tracked with the (now canned) build a car in a day idea.
So.. we've still got to work out a way to make our stand welcoming and social...
Any further ideas (the easier to do, the better)...

who to, us or outsiders? lol i do think every car on the stand should be made to have a R-R sticker in a window.
the idea we had before of a boulevard would be welcoming, and display the cars nicely. or was there a reason we went away from this?

Have info boards been suggested already? A4 sheets with RR branding to be placed in the windows or something, filled in with info about the car or whatever Also, a larger board or something with pics of the forum and some of the cars that couldn't be there would be cool, placed somewhere prominent

Building on DarrenW's idea, we could do the Top Trumps for our cars but on A4 and have them displayed in the car window!

it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts

A4 sheets with RR branding to be placed in the windows or something, filled in with info about the car or whatever quote] that was my idea! as i mentioned on the other thread, a RR drag times board... I liked iroccos idea of those chequred wrist bands for identification of members and non members... a name tag might be abit 'first day at primary school' somewhere to stand... like a gazzebo (sp?) or somthing Music? bbq? etc all things to be considerd? some kind of theme is another idea, era related... 50s at one end and 80s at the other... and asociated tat as you travell down the boulevard you will go back in time...... i also like the idea of two big circles one inside each other, and a meeting point in the middle. what about a genny, and a comupter with satelite internet so we can see what happening on our favorite site... www.retro-rides.com? lol

some good ideas there, laying the cars out in order of age could be a good one...

gazebo and BBQ are def needed. lining the cars up in age order is an interesting one - but what a pain in the ass it would be, we would need to know every car in advance to plan it really - otherwise its a lot of shuffling around on the day

Not feeling the name-tag idea myself - yeah it'd make it easier for us to identify each other but... well... I'd feel a proper tw@t, don't know about anyone else?! I like the chequered wrist-bands. Much more discreet.

Would need someone to come up with a design that we could all download and fill in ourselves before the show and print complete with photo in proper Top Trumps styleee. Can I suggest that after a day or two of brainstorming these things a poll is run with the various ideas to see which get most support?

I can do a "new" top trumps layout that people could fill in easily, like a heavily altered word document or somesuch all laid out so you can just fill it in Music too! Have to have music! I can do nametag/sticker type thingies on my website that YOU can alter the text on so that's always there - same applies for anything that I can do on there
