TVRCC Herts, Beds: Alternative(s) to Kimbolton

[alex_gray255]

Hi folks

With the disappointing news that Kimbolton Fayre will not happen this year, I've reviewed the situation with alternative shows and
have the following suggestion(s) to make.

Alternative One

Unfortunately, I have not been able to get hold of Nick to see if it is possible to get anymore passes for Uxbridge, but reviewing the
dates on the Uxbridge website I think it is not possible to get anymore club passes as the latest date for this was today. It is still possible
to get in with individual passes up to the 9th of July, but that will require individuals to enter themselves and ensure they get the tickets
prior to the day.

Aternative Two

An alternative is the Brooklands Super car Sunday, which is about the same distance for folks from Herts/Beds to Uxbridge. I spoke with
the organiser yesterday and it is still possible to get a car club entry - assuming we can get responses back reasonably quickly. The details
from the Brooklands Website for the show are as follows...

"A new all-marques event with demonstrations on the Mercedes-Benz World track for exotic and exclusive modern and classic cars including Maseratis, Ferraris, Lamborghinis, Mercedes-Benz, Jaguars, top end Alfa Romeos, Aston Martins, Bugattis Rolls Royces, Porsches, Bentleys and the odd Koenigsegg. A unique opportunity for visitors to enjoy supercars at close quarters. Expected rarities are an Aston Zagato, AC Zagato and a Jaguar XJR15 among others."

So, basically, something like Supercar Sunday at Gaydon with the Brooklands air and car museum as an extra bonus.

I'm happy to arrange this event for us IF I can get enough people wanting to go and in a reasonable amount of time.

SO...

• if you want to go to Uxbridge, you will have to put yourself in as an individual, but you will need to do so by 9th July.
• if you want to go to Brooklands Supercar Sunday, you will need to put your name down ASAP so that I can arrange things for us.

If you are interested in Brooklands, please put your name down by the 5th of July at the very latest. If enough people are interested, I will
sort it out.

Many thanks, Alex.

Hi folks

Just a reminder - I will need a response to this by Thursday, else nothing will be happening on the 15th this month.

Thanks!

Hi

As no one seems to be particularly interested in Brooklands Supercar Sunday or doing anything else special on the 15th of July, I'll just leave it as the usual monthly meet for that weekend and not arrange anything else.

Thanks

Don't be disappointed Alex, you heart is in the right place, it's just the bloody weather that's putting us all off.........I for one am not booking track days until the day before the event AND a perfect weather forecast. I think maybe we all remember the last time it was like this, only a year or so ago, and the awful summer of constant rain we had after three weeks of summer in March. It's pissing down here as I write, and East Anglia is supposed only to have 20 inches of rain a year.
