Do you have something particularly exotic to show? I applied the same time as you and haven't heard anything.

Iam suprised that you have not had reply yet,you could say that yes i offered them a very rare car so they might just be being very picky this year.Good luck anyone trying to display as it is a very nice venue.

cheers shl

I get the fact they want some display cars but there has also been the supercar convoy parade, I have been involved in it several times in the past but cant work out if one is supposed to register or not? I also have no idea this time around if there will be any london start points?

My car will not be exotic enough to display, but back in 2015 Piston Heads had their own parking on the grounds which was great.

Hoping Piston Heads will be organising the same again this this year.

Mark, I think it's become quite a different event for the enthusiast owner compared to the early Years, sadly IMHO for the worse frown

I will wait a little longer and see if they do reply, but being the Rev off winner 2yrs ago You would have thought they might respond?

In other News, I have managed to secure a Viper Club stand at Excel London Classic car show this February thumbup Do you plan to attend Mark?

I suspect they want just 1 example of each model now rather than several examples as in previous years. The whole vibe of the event has changed for 2017. A polite reply saying no thanks wouldn't hurt though.

That signup form appears to be broken now. I used it to register in 2016 and still got no reply.

I applied Dec 4 and received a reply that those that were accepted would be notified by Dec 19. I've not had a confirmation yet so presumably not accepted.

I've emailed a couple of times and had no response...very annoying and quite rude.

Having taken part in previous events when JayKayBi was organising the supercars, it all went Pete Tong last year when Jay was no longer involved, and now this year not even an acknowledgement.

Its a great shame as the event used to be excellent and promised to be another Goodwood'esque annual 'must go to' event.

If Lord P and his team don't even have the courtesy to reply to those participants who helped make it the event it was, then I can't be bothered to attend.

Shame for all concerned but that's how I feel.
