Hi folks

This thread is currently a place holder until more information on this event is available.

"WHEEL MEET AGAIN" Motor Show!

The date is confirmed as Sunday 11th September, opening at 11am and running most of the day.

The show last year was very good and had about eight TVRs in all come to it. I thought I would arrange something more formal this year as the event is well worth going to. Lots of sports and classic cars of many makes - including some real beasts!

More details of last years show can be found @ http://www.stmarys.net/events.cfm and http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

If you are interested in going, please feel free to put your name down for the event and I will keep the thread updated as more information is published. If enough people are interested, I will also arrange a run-in to the event - there were two last year!

This is a Non-TVRCC event, so feel free to put your name down even if you are not a TVRCC member! (Liability insurance issues however - if present - would need to be your own arrangements. There weren't any last year, but until I've confirmed the event details I can't say for sure!)

Thanks! Alex

Hi Alex, got your e-mail. I'd beup for this again, would be nice to have a proper allocated area this time than chance our parking in another clubs empty space. That said we managed a nice unofficial turn out last year as we dragged the odds and sods onto our makeshift stand hehe

The site details for this event are now up and I'm in the process of booking a pitch for us. Based on the interest shown so far, I will book for similar numbers as last year, with a bit of extra capacity thrown in for the late comers smile

Hi folks

I've finally been contacted by the organizer for this event and have confirmation of 10 places been reserved for us - which seems to be enough for those who have expressed an interest at the moment. If I need more places however, I have to let them know fast.

So, if you want to come to this event and have not already put you name down, please let me know by the 19th May at the latest.

Also, a small update on the event itself...

<<
This year we hope to have a well know motoring journalist of well known TV programme fame attending and chairing the judging (yet to be confirmed) we also have cash prizes for the winners of following catergories:
- Best car in show (open to all exhibitors) £50
- best utility/commercial (£50)
- Best motorcycle (£50)
- best american (£50)
>>

Many thanks, Alex

Thanks, folks!

Numbers for this event are now fixed at 10 (so 2 free spaces)

If you want to attend, then you will need to arrange your own way there smile

hi alex

this is a local event for me and have been going for years without any official pass
i would just turn up at the gates and say i am displaying my car and they would let me in for free !

would you be able to confirm for everyone if you must have the passes on the day as this could possibly limit the number of tvr's to gain entry ? "the more the merrier"
and also an update of people wanting to attend this meet to get an idea of numbers if its not restricted

Hey Keith

The official pass is a car pass sent by the organiser to put in the window. To be honest, we had one last year but never needed to use it either. As its a PDF file - it could be duplicated endlessly anyway smile

The 10 places mostly refers to the area that we have pre-booked for us. When Tony and I went last year, there was space galore, so a think a few more slipping in over 10 would probably get in as well without issues whistle

Unless things are setup differently this year.

If loads more people want to come, then by all means let me know and I can ask Hugh to increase our allocation. I don't think it would be an issue.

But no point asking for 20 places only to have 5 cars turn up scratchchin

If you booked a pass for me, please give it to someone else, as I'm in France that weekend.
