If it's being delivered by Yodel, we could be in trouble.

I live pretty much next door to Chatsworth. What local area / town are you looking at for weather? The geography there is pretty hilly and so the weather is often totally different in and around the 'Edges' than in the nearish towns.

Don't worry Steve it wont fall apart if it gets wet;) although I do hope the weather improves for all those attending.

On a grass slope?
In the wet?
Hundreds of powerful RWD TVRs?

Ah but the exit is at the bottom of the slope so never been a problem in the past when wet

The area is used as a car park more and more often these days eg last weekend. The ground remains solid as it has great drainage and so traction isnt a problem.

Check the long range forecast from the Met Office :/ Obviously things might change, so lets all pray together.

Check what long range ? Chatsworth, Baslow, Sheffield, Chesterfield...
As I say the weather in that area is often very different to the surrounding areas as it's in a valley.

Chatsworth...i'm less concerned about a little rain at Chatsworth, but more grumpy about 2.5 hours, driving across country with it pissing it down all the way. I think our little group (about 5-6, from our local town) will make a call the day before as to whether we go or not. Super Down if we have to miss it.

Who is the god of weather? I'm going to start sacrificing local wildlife

It poured down last time i went on the way back. Quite funny to see a convoy of TVR drivers with 888's creeping along gingerly at 25mph on the M40. Mind you, there was standing water about an inch deep.

Pfft. My Micra has more power and wider tyres than me Griff - can be 'entertaining' in those kinda circumstances.

See you at Growl.

Why? i hope not after all his hard work

Any way 10 days away they can't predict 1 day ahead let alone a week and a bit. It's ok i will be leaving all that rain behind in the shire before i am south bound

[DJR 7]

Fingers crossed the current bun will shine! .......
Us Cerb boys will be ok, can you imagine how wet it'll be in a leaky Chimp

[crimbo]

It will be what it is, either way i'll be there
