Basically, we need to think of 10 locations spread around our region, so that means -
Northampton
Lincoln
Nottingham
Leicester
Derby maybe (even though it apparently falls under West Mids  )
They don't have to be IN those places, just vaguely in the area, by which I mean the county I suppose 
Pubs are great, we can park, then chat inside or in the garden, with food and drink easily available, and no-one likes standing around in a cold car park for hours if they're honest.
A bit of motor racing might be good too, BTCC, banger racing, whatever really, something different than just a pub meet once in a while, but keeping it car related, maybe a motor museum, again, whatever is around.
Obviously there's 12 months, and it would be nice to have a meet a month, we wouldn't expect everyone to turn up to every meet, that's unrealistic, even if it would be nice. I know most of the Lincoln guys don't want to travel down to Northampton for meets all the time, and I assume it's the same for other people too, as well as the other way round, so for this reason, we need variety.
So, if people can come up with suggestions for 10 meets, 2 in each of the above locations, that would be great.
I'm thinking -
Northampton - Queen Eleanor
Lincoln - Pride
Then I'm stumped, so need outside input.
I know I've said 10, PVS will count as the June meet, then I think we'll have a month off in the winter when it's freezing cold
When we've sorted the locations, Sam, Rob and myself can come up with a calender of meets, which will be on the first Sunday of every month, to fit in with the current CS 'policy', which we will post in here for people to refer to. Something like this - http://corsasport.co.uk/board/viewthread.php?tid=324572 but in our region, obviously.
Get your suggestions in 
Sorry if this seems a bit messy and doesnt make much sense, but it's 3:56am and I'm about to go to bed, I'll make more sense of it in the morning if I can be arsed
Cheers

Yeah, that's an evening thing though isn't it? We could do that, but it'd only be a few of us who go

I like the idea of go-karting. theres GP karting in northampton, Whilton Locks/mill in nether heyford. Could do the tournament that they do. £40 and you get so many races and at the end the overall winner gets a trophy
