Royal Deeside Speed Festival

I'm guessing the organisers won't be able to put up a thread about it so I thought I'd start a wee discussion topic.

The attached link dropped into my inbox last night;

It appears to be the Speedfest replacement but with actual motorsport interest. A mini Goodwood Festival of Speed if you will. Having been a regular attendee at Speedfest at Alford I've enjoyed the fact that there are moving cars but it's always been quite small and tight. I think the castle could give this a pretty interesting background.

It has certainly sparked my interest. I've applied to run the Alfa up the hill and stick a couple of cars on display.

Anyone else thinking of attending to give it a go?

James,
Great to hear about a new event.

I should say that this is NOT a replacement for the Alford Speedfest which will take place on the 3rd July 2016, once again under the auspices of the Grampian Transport Museum.

Cheers!

Syd,

Thanks for that. Well we are being spoiled up here in the North East! Two car events in the same quarter!
Sadly I can't make that date as i'll hopefully be racing at Donington that weekend but I'm sure the day will go well.
