Just wondered who was going this year? I've been the last four years and really enjoyed it.

Cheers.

I'm going for the third year, really good event, glad it gets some good coverage. I'm sure lots of people are affected by stroke in one way another, and as its a non profit making venture with the cars being kindly donated by generous owners (who drive themselves just to be clear!).

I'll be there doing passenger rides in the ADR. I might have a play on the AutoSolo too, if I get time.

As far as I understand it's £5 entry, and then various amounts for rides depending on what you choose to go in.
I'll be there again giving rides. Hopefully it'll be dry as Caterhams are 'interesting' in the wet!

I'm pretty certain the chap you're thinking of will be at the AutoSolo again. I think he's going in the Lancer - did he have the MX5 last year?

Other attractions include:
Bristol Motor Club Autosolo,
Lotus F1 car on display,
supercar paddock,
Drive South West Supercar hire display,
Castle Combe Saloon Championship 'go racing' display,
Jack FM live and a race car simulator (no idea why when you have the real thing!).
So a whopping day out and 100% of your donations go directly to the Stroke Association on the day.
Every single person putting the event on and driving is a volunteer.

It does look like a fantastic line-up this year. Not sure if I'm brave enough to get back in the MGB this time;-).
I'll be coming up from Taunton if anyone's coming from that direction and wants to meet up.
Not sure what time though;-).

Cheers.
