Brilliant !

Talking of hill climbing, I’m doing Prescott in June - really enjoyed it the last time I did it - wasn’t very good though - also can’t believe how quickly it’s all over - such a short course

Try going up the hill this year…

Not sure that the strict number cap was needed in the end - lots more room & super well organised and as such, more could have been accommodated in hindsight / next time. Thanks again

No, not from a parking point of view, the logistics pain then moves on to queuing / ordering / cooking.

It’s a fairly big risk for the venue - I tell them 100 cars are turning up, they get enough pork in for 125 people and say only 60 cars show up… or even the other way, I say 100 cars and 200 show up..

I think Region 9 have had 90 odd cars there at one point or another, so space isn’t the issue - commitment is.
There is a PCGB big even at the end of July but that’s ticketed and that’s the other option - you pre purchase your “coffee and breakfast roll”.

My next meet up there is currently planned for a date to be confirmed in July. So I’ve got some options to explore.

It maybe short,but try getting a time close to the class records,soon see how lardy and slow these modern gt cars are,and advise wearing a nappy to save your seats;)I think there is a special parking place at prescott for Aubergines

Class records fro the single seat cars at hillclimbs are mad.

For that matter, the speed the old single-seat, chain-driven Edwardian cars (GN specials) go up Shelsley is batst crazy.

I wish I could blame it on being in a modern GT car - unfortunately though, I was in this - will get the dog to drive it next time

Just while I am working out the details for "Renn-devous 2" a question to you all...

Given the location would you prefer a Saturday or a Sunday next time? - I cant promise I'll be able to deliver what the masses say, its down to when we can be accommodated, but if I get the choice...

Either day is fine with me

[First Sea Lord]

Likewise. Good with either

Thanks again for bringing your organisational energy

I spend a good deal of my weekends getting muddy, trying not to crash bicycles. Sunday is the bigger day for that, but I can go with flow for meet.
