It’s time to ask you to confirm your support for the above event :dude:
please can you add your name and car details below, thanks :thumbsup:
What: 'On Your Marks' Charity Rides sponsored by Asda
Where: Bruntingthorpe, Leicestershire
When: 15th August 2010

Club Scuderia are supporting this event as one of it's nominated charities this Year :thumbsup:
We are looking for 25 Ferraris from Subscribed Members to give rides and up to around 35 cars for display plus some helpers for the day please to put people in cars etc etc. Please note that if you have an open car then you will be required to wear a helmet as will any passenger if doing rides, I’m hoping to organise a number of helmets for passengers to use on the day. Please note display and helper cars will be asked for £5 at entry, all of which goes to charity :thumbsup:
There is some details on my previous thread http://www.clubscuderia.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?p=566262#post566262
On Your Marks started nine years ago, at Asda we had a driver called Mark Hickingbottom, who was dying of lymphatic cancer after serving his country in the first gulf war, we approached the owner of Bruntingthorpe (David Walton) and asked if we could have a day with some trucks and a few cars on the proving ground , and he said yes. This went very well and we made £7,500 for his family but unfortunately mark died a week before the event.
The car clubs that came on the day asked if we could carry on with the event ,so we approached his family and asked if we could do the day in his memory and use his name, they said they didn't mind but could the money go to children's cancer charities, the car clubs agreed to the same.
Nine years down the line we have raised over £150,000+ for local kids , and we now get 15,000 colleagues, friends and family there on the day, we insist that the charities are there on the day and that some of the sick children are there as well, then at 1400 on the day we open a special Pitts for them and call all the special cars in for them to get in and go around the track for free and there parents and siblings. this is very special and is the pay back for all the hard work.
