Okay chaps and chappesses,

Which of you orrible oiks are going to this event?

I'm certainly going, as is my cousin (showcase) in his Chimaera.

Jagdpanther is hoping we can sort a private camp area at Whittlebury Park, which would be the other side of the lake (no promises though) but this depends on a block booking.

If you're thinking of going drop me a PM or e-mail me clintmarcelholmes@hotmail.co.uk

Camping, based on 2 sharing a car/tent, is likely to work out at around £17 each.

Tickets for the actual event.....well, let's just say they're cheaper than advertised on the site, but let's see who DEFINATELY wants to go.

Would be great to meet up with a few of you, especially female owners, sexy ones.

Cheers

dirty.

I've booked entrance tickets and gig (although actually purchasing tickets was the least enjoyable purchase I've ever made).

Accommodation is not yet booked, but was thinking of camping at Whittlebury. I have infield car parking organised - apparently rolleyes

It was great racing last year and fantastic weather! How lucky do we feel? tongue out

You're welcome to tag along mate, I estimate the price will be around £55 per person.

This is based on two sharing (car & tent) and includes race day tickets for the Saturday & Sunday.

If you fancy it let me know asap, as I don't know how long the cheap ticket offer will be applicable for, if we can tie it up before the end of the month it would be good.

Any other takers?

Is this the place that you are referring to? Do they have acess to the rear of the circuit? How many do you need for your block booking? There are eight of us in four cars, (2TVRs Lotus & Alfa at present.)

Yes, that's the place.

Access is good it's about 1/2 mile walk across a field. Perfect in all honesty (assuming it's not pissing down with rain)

Have you booked anything yet?

Let me know what you want to.

As mentioned a 6m x 7m plot at Whittlebury is £35 (enough for a car and a decent tent) and I don't think they were that strict in all honesty.
