Tubes?
« on: July 09, 2019, 11:19:53 AM »
When do the tubes get sent out?  Getting anxious!!!   I've also been hoping for an update or Straight Away newsletter.

Just this morning I asked Nancy to update the patches and stuff on my denim race jacket - and that's when I realised that we hadn't got our tubes yet, either.

Anybody? :? :?

I believe I got mine Monday, but as most of you know, I'm special.

Rookie question; are the Tubes referred to here from the BNI/SCTA and include a poster, a SpeedWeek entry pin and embroidered patch etc? I guess international will take even longer - hope it reaches the UK before I set off for SW2019.

When are the rule books sent out - I have not received a 2019 version but I have got my 2019 membership card - I do not remember how that arrived but I can only see my 2015, 2017 and 2018 rule books lying around the house / garage.
A Bonneville Lakester please barman.
Certainly sir; a lick of salt, a sip of gas and a twist of Lemming. More Lemming sir?
Just a squeeze.

A Squeeze of Lemming it is sir.
