Here’s some other ideas....
Jaguar Heritage Centre at Coventry
Red Bull at Milton Keynes (or any other F1 team in the locality!)
MIRA
At the risk of pouring cold water on things...

Most F1 teams wont have you apart from specific times during the year - and even then, they'll hide stuff.

MIRA will have a lot of stuff under NDA (or did when I worked there) so doubt they'd want people nosing about either. Unlikely to let you go for a blat around the proving ground either.

Jag Heritage centre is a good shout though.

JLR is a good shout as is Caffeine & Machine for the Midlands.

Or how about Great British Sportscars in North Nottinghamshire ??

Already said earlier in the Thread.

But Duxford is a great shout. Can get the cars parked in front of the American Air Museum. Supercars and the SR71 as a back drop. What’s not to love!!

Hi All,

Not wanting to sound Daft, but when does this take place ? I have never been to any of these and I would like to maybe join this year, is there anything in particular I have to do to join ? any initiation rituals ?

Oh and also what sort of area would this be ?

The PH team will create a calendar similar to the one in the link below & post it in the Sunday Service section of Events so you can plan ahead. They then post a new thread about 1 month before the event & you put your name on the list (be quick as some are heavily oversubscribed). Instructions are sent out a few days before the event & the PH team like biscuits/chocolates to keep them entertained as we roll up on a Sunday normally (with the exception of the Le Mans events plus odd others). If you are on the reserve list you’ll sometimes find people drop out & you are suddenly “in” at the last minute thumbup

know it's nothing new but Prodrive and Astom Martin at Gaydon is always top class!

Also, looking at the area, how about a dedicated "Caffeine and Machine" meet?
