To all TVRs & Pistonheads!

The April 14 TVRCC Staffordshire meeting will be at the TVR Tuscan \ GT event at Donnington Park, rather than the usual venue in Stone.

We will meet at 10 am, Derby South Services (Little Chef/Burger King) on A50 Eastbound carriageway (between jct 2 & 1), and will leave for the circuit by 10:30.

Any other TVR's heading in that direction are more than welcome to join us. Circuit entry is around £10, and includes free transfer to the pit area. The organisers can't yet tell me whether there is any specific parking area\arrangements for TVR's (normally somewher in the infield).

Contact details for myself & Barry (Staffs ROs) can be found in TVRCC Sprint magazine.

Cheers

Marcus

No problem at all. Hope I didn't give the impression of 'TVRs only' elitism!

If it'll help convince you to shop in Blackpool rather than Stuttgart again then sure, the more the merrier!
