Looking forward to this aswell! I've had to move my stag do to the week earlier to be able to go!

Could do both colour and year...all classics, colour coordinated - all bugs, colour coordinated etc
Would make for some great photos.

I said that Arron think it will look good

Copying ain't a lol

last years was amazing but orginisation was not the best.
think it would be a good idea to run down in order of age ie classic then blob then hawk then shark oldest first this would also look amazing on feild for photos

OK - How about this for an idea? To make it easy for the order of convoy to be decided or organised by the organisers, whether it be by model, colour, age, year, etc I have made a spreadsheet which I will publish on Google Docs and put the link up so people can access it and enter their details if they are attending NBO 13. The mods/admins can then filter the spreadsheet to show any order they want. For example only black cars, only newage black cars, cars by year - you get the drift. The fields in the spreadsheet are as follows and I have filled in some example data:

Full Name: Scooby Doo NESF Username: Sdoo555 Subaru Model: Impreza STI Newage or Classic: Newage Version: Hawkeye Model Year: 2007 Main Body Colour: Black Wheel Colour: Gunmetal

If you think any other fields should be included, easily sorted.

It's just a suggestion to make it easier to sort out, but please feel free to ignore the sh*t out of me for being a sad b'stard!

It also saves everyone from all this copying and pasting the previous list and adding their own names as sometimes mistakes are made and people are accidentally deleted, etc. Also makes it easy for people to delete themselves if they can no longer make it without screwing the number order up.

Cheers marietto.....quality post..

plus i wanna video it so i will be last leaving carpark and have to get there first,suppose i could park down the side carpark

Sorry Mario .. do you mean the spreadsheet for people to add their own info ... if so can everyone access a spreadsheet to .. if they dont have Excel ??

could have problems in sorting out who is where unless already in position in the convoy for pulling onto the field and then youve got the people who come later or not with the convoy but would still like to be on the club stand ... and then the ones who don't want to stay to the end so won't want to be blocked in ... its a nightmare really .... sorry lol

No bother at all. You don't need Excel on Google Docs Nic. It has it's own built in one called Google Sheets. I will reverse, get back in my cage and leave it to those who have done it the last 12 times successfully

Nooo I'm not saying that at all ... just wondered about access to the speadsheet .. I have excel so use that and had no idea that google had one :-) .... crack on lol
