Vehicle sprints will be set off in categories: Vintage cars and Bikes(pre war); Vintage cars and bikes(post war); Historic cars and Bikes (1960-1980); Classic Cars and bikes(1980-2000). To close the event, Rally cars of all eras will switch on their headlamps for a frosty twilight parade through the historic and attractive streets of Oundle. This charming town offers a packed day delivering fun, food, and entertainment for all the family, from 10am till that chequered flag drops at four….

It was well worth the effort, and I managed to be the final entrant from the reserve list ! It was unfortunate that a few residents decided they weren't so keen on the event at the eleventh hour resulting in a shortened course but still an enjoyable day and with the profits going to worthwhile causes. As it was so well supported and attended I sincerely hope that it becomes a regular fixture with an extension to the course.
I did and yes in the Aero 8. Steve i only really know through a mutual friend that also has a T350, but a coupe and in silver….also in our group right behind Steve.
Spoke with some of the traders today who said it was excelling for them and the town, so that has got to be a good thing, but we will have a de brief in the next few weeks to get a balance opinion and to plan for 2015

Not heard about this until this topic appeared. Sounds like a great event (can't see the pics either).
I live in Rutland a few miles north of Oundle. Decided against going in the end because of the snow we had on Boxing Day - I assumed the snow & ice we had would mean the event wouldn't happen!
