Excellent timing - I'm going to visit my parents that weekend in Scunthorpe.

Any other PHers going? I'll be in a green 911 Carrera 3.2

This may be a stupid comment, but does the event have entry tickets and an entrance price?

Or is it just in the town centre?

Can anybody enlighten me?

[kenyon]

No entry tickets required, just turn up in your sport car. When you get into the town centre it will say sportcar & classic car show. You should see some rodsde stewards just appraoch them and they will let you in.

is this 6pm to 7.30pm?(assuming the 91.30 hrs is a typo for 19.30)
Where is the do on the 8th Aug being held? Is this the one with 20,000 attendees?

[kenyon]

The show runs from 1830 hrs to 2130 hrs, but some stay later its upto the individual.

[tallbloke]

Why are there two shows there within a fortnight, the 27th July and August 8th?

Which one is Clarkson going to? (So I can go to the other!)

Still confused...

[kenyon]

The reason their two, is so the council can train stewards for the big event on August 8th. The event on Tuesday 27th in eveneing is very good well.

The event on August 8th is a all day event. I understand Vicki butler henderson is attending as well. Tiff Needle will be there. Jeremy Clarkson should be attending but might not due the launch of the 1 series bmw...

Brigg - a car show - cool. I grew up in Scawby and went to Sir John Nelthorpe. Might make a trip 'back home' for that one. Hope I didn't go to school with any of you lot , I'm sure you'd recognise my first name if I did.
