Important, please read if you paid in £ sterling. - 07/06/2010 13:14
As you probably remember, back in November last year when this project was started, the £ v € rate was very volatile.
Even goverments were unsure of how it was going to go.
We decided to treat them as being of equal value until we had made all payments due in euros to the organisers and received all payments made in euros.
We have now done this, and can make the necessary adjustments to ensure that everyone, whichever currency they paid in, has paid the same price for their Fiat Coupe Club UK package of weekend entry and coupe only track time.
The figures are as follows:
Those paying in £ paid £100.00. (Obviously)
Those paying in € paid £ 86.64. ( On average)
The difference is £ 13.36 per car.
As you know this club exists to further the interests of all coupe owners, so we are asking those who paid in UK pounds to consider making a donation of the difference to the club.
If you feel that you would prefer not to do this, then please PM me and I will arrange for a refund to be made at Spa.
Payments made by the club on your behalf for additional track times were calculated using typical exchange rates as there was not the same degree of uncertainty due to the much shorter time scale involved.
