This is all getting a bit exciting!

Previously we've managed:

2013: 72 cars of which 35 were Australian
2014: 84 cars of which ~30 were Australian

2015? Well Topcats have cast their net out as well and they've had over 50 people confirm who aren't anything to do with V8UK. So we could be talking some serious numbers!

There's plenty of parking, and the road to get off Westcott Venture Park means we'll be able to form up one absolutely HUGE convoy before heading out onto the road biggrin

Weather permitting there's going to be a helicopter and aerial drone to film the convoy too!

We have a great route planned out, minimal junctions, no traffic lights etc. so hopefully it should be a great drive out!

I'm coming from S.Yorkshire, but heading down sat afternoon and staying over. If anyone's doing the same I'd be up for a Saturday afternoon convoy? biggrin

I won't be joining the convoy as I have to go on elsewhere so my visit will be brief but am looking forward to this event. Am bringing a couple of friends with me.

Myself, Mike and Bob with the TVR from power tour are meeting up somewhere in the Midlands if you fancy it? Think we are meeting at Donington around 7:30.

We'll probably head out before lunch, but if you need to be back in Fareham by 1 I guess you'll be leaving quite early, so it's not looking good frown
