Before the grime is washed off my car, i've already been asked a few times about doing a summer TiTT. Some of you may recall that we did one last year in August, ending at Silverstone for the Tuscan challenge race (i think it rained that day too rolleyes )
About 25 cars went to Silverstone (who actually looked after us very well, gave us our own "clubhouse" and grandstand.

The key problems with a "summer" run as i see it are:

  1. Still no guarantee about the weather, but i do agree it is less likely to be as wet, and will be lighter
  2. The Ace cafe will not give us a summer date, as summer Sundays are reserved for Bikers
  3. there will always be people who are away on holiday
  4. There were very few people who attended last year's summer TiTT
Putting these issues aside for a moment though, if there is a demand, then we should do one.

What i need from you great people are some ideas for the end venue, which needs to provide clean loos a hearty breakfast and sufficient, safe parking.

My thoughts include:
Goodwood (although they are very busy at weekends)
Brands Hatch - i'm awaiting dates for the Tuscan Challenge meet
Silverstone - again awaiting dates for the Tuscan Challenge meet
Mercedes Benz World - German smile
A beach somewhere?

So, i open it up to the great TVR public - what do you suggest?
Feel free to post here, or PM me if you are shy biggrin

Southend? Beach, donuts, fish and chips. Plenty of parking too although it will probably cost a couple of quid?

Probably crap but just an idea getmecoat
Good idea Lewis, and Brighton. I'll add them to the list.
Its just a bugger of a way to get back for some of our West and Northern friends. But at a later stage, we can have a vote

I have a plan formulating as we speak, and its looking like a date in May biggrin (Personally, i would like to avoid dates that clash with other TVR-related events).

I'll get back to you as soon as it is confirmed
