S CLUB HEAVEN 2021

TVR S CLUB HEAVEN 2021
Each year we try to run an event to bring S owners together. It was impossible last year but we have a proposal for this year. We have the opportunity to run the event as part of the Oulton Park Gold Cup historic racing weekend, Cheshire, August bank holiday (28-30th August). If enough of you are interested this would become a formal national TVRCC event.
Oulton Park is a lovely circuit set in the Cheshire countryside. The Gold Cup is an annual event run by the Historic Sports Car Club, and provides great racing. https://www.oultonparkgoldcup.com/. A couple of us are ‘regulars’. The circuit organisers have been very helpful. We can have a designated ‘show’ area, judging and prizes, camping facilities and a run out. Whether you stay for the weekend of attend for a day, whether you camp or stay elsewhere is up to you.
Entry to the Gold Cup is a very reasonable £35 for the weekend, £22 for a day. Camping for the full weekend is £25. We may be able to negotiate some discounts dependent on numbers. Do not book tickets yet. The site is about 18 miles west from M6 jn18 or 19.
We would intend to plan a run out on the Saturday (or watch practicing if you prefer) , our ‘formal’ (pretty informal really) gathering on the Sunday (morning especially as there is no racing until midday) and some socialising especially in the evening. The annual chance to meet other S owners and compare notes!
We now need to get an idea of owners who would wish to join us. We will also be publishing on Facebook and Sprint but we will use Pistonheads to publish the list of those attending.
Can you let me know, provisionally:
Your name

We have been forced to make some changes to our planning. Can I ask you to read through the following details, which will also be posted on our Facebook site.
TVRCC S CLUB HEAVEN 2021
Oulton Park Gold Cup 28/29/30 August 2021
This has proved difficult this year and Covid is still influencing arrangements. We are still determined to provide the opportunity for the annual meet up of S owners to go ahead this year, even in constrained circumstances, and we very much hope you will support this accordingly. We look forward to seeing a group of old and new friends there.
There are two major changes to arrangements at Oulton Park which influence our plans.
Firstly there will now be NO camping available Friday night, the camping facilities will open late morning Saturday (before practicing starts). Camping however includes Saturday and Sunday night and until 8pm Monday and is pretty cheap. I know this will suit some people but not others. The Oulton website gives details of other accommodation in the area.
Secondly ALL the booking is on line and there is specific provision for 50% discounted booking for members of specifically approved groups, and passengers, and we are registered accordingly. It is a bit more complicated to apply (but if I can manage it you can!) I have provisionally booked for 15 cars each day (first come first served!) if it looks like we need more, which would be great, I expect to be able to get an increase.
PROGRAMME;
For the programme of historic/classic racing, and of other information on what’s on over the three days please go to www.oultonparkgoldcup.com.
Our plans:
We would like to get all S owners assembled by 3.30pm Saturday if possible. We are organising a run out in convoy (max 2.5hrs driving), we are currently exploring the possibility of a break at a pub/café together. (For those who are only attending on Saturday or Sunday it is NOT possible to organise a run on those days for traffic management reasons).
Sunday morning we will move from the camping area (outside the race track) to the designated are for our group inside the race circuit, and meet non camping members there. The exact spot has yet to be confirmed but, for those who know the circuit, I have been advised it will probably be between Old Hall and Cascades. Racing cannot start until noon Sunday so this is the time most visitors take the opportunity to visit the paddock, stalls and displays. I hope we can socialise together, probably making use of on site catering etc, in the evening.
Monday morning we return to our designated spot for a full day, members can of course leave when they wish.
COMMUNICATION. I can envisage some communication problems, particularly in view of the size of the site. For that reason it is intended to set up a specific WhatsApp group for the event so I will need a mobile phone number for each car please.
CAMPING; see the Gold Cup website for details, it is pretty cheap for 2 nights these days. When I know revised numbers I will advise Oulton so we can confirm a camping area together. I will be there early to check.
JUDGING ; we will NOT be trying to organise judging by type of S this year, so we are all in this together! We MAY manage to arrange public choice of the three S cars that appeal to them the most, plus the memorial trophy for the well used not show car.
SOUVENIRS; will be limited to certificate and window sticker. I would love to do T shirts for those who S enthusiasts who supported this event, but AFTER the event and subject to your details and a £15 deposit at the event. A reminder of at least something ‘S’ attended during the covid years!
RAFFLE. There will be no raffle this year.
APPLYING FOR TICKETS.
Be amongst the first 15 (14 now as I have booked) to be sure to get the 50% discount on driver and any passenger. If we can exceed that I am pretty confident of getting the number extended.
It HAS to be on line and through their system to get the discount. Apply as follows:
1. Go to www.https://www.oultonparkgoldcup.com/
2. On the banner select ‘Get Involved’
3. Go to ‘Club Displays’
4. Go to lower left ‘click here to apply’
5. You are likely to ask to register with Oulton Park before proceeding
6. Select ‘displaying with a club’ and select ‘TVRCC S type’. Care, there are other TVR registrations on Oulton Park records. They will ask for details of your car.
7. You are then ‘registered’ and you will get an email confirming.
8. You will receive a sticker/pass for your car which MUST be shown to gain entry

Hi Lee, sorry your car isn't ready yet. I am afraid I can only get discounted entry for people who bring their S to show. However you will not be the only S owner who has to come without their car. Yes you will have to buy a ticket as a member of the public but we would love to have you join us nevertheless to socialise and view the action. If you let me know when you are going to be there, and give me your mobile number, I will include you in the Whatapp group. See you there, and I will have my S1 with me to discuss with you!
Sorry, nobody is going on the track. This is a national HSCC competition meeting, a major annual historic event, there are usually some competitive TVR's in the Sports Car races but earlier cars than ours. (Have a good look at the Gold Cup website, I think there is past event coverage somewhere as well.) However there is access to the paddock and to many car club groups. At the moment there are marginally more people going on Sunday, but that may change as more names come in.
