Will anyone be attending this?
Will there be a club stand / any discount on ticket prices?
(Just read - kit car drivers get in free!)

As it's only 30mins from me I am considering attending - however I do move home the weekend after so it may be a short visit between packing up!

Unless I can think of a good reason to be in the area with the van, I won't be there because the Midas is waiting for a new exhaust...

...although i have a sister in Nottingham whose birthday is the 18th. Hmm...

Hello James,

The N.E. group will be there. But this time James come and talk to us, we don't bite. So don't be shy, we just want our little group to grow. I think Moffat last year we fielded the most cars, but I cannot rember how many it was.

Somebody with a younger brain will remember. If anyone wants my mobile number, just PM me.

Regards To all.

Alan D.

I might be there on the Sunday I'm exhbiting next door at the air museum this year. I won't have the Midas though :-( as the Rangey has grenaded it's front axle this week so has nicked the Midas fettling and MOT funds.

Hopefully going to be there on Saturday as long as nothing crops up and gets in the way. I'll be in the Midas but have to hide it round the back as it's no show winner.....still great to drive though ;) !!

Don't hide it, just join us and fly the Midas flag. I think our little group has done more than has been done for along time, to raise the brand awareness. It's suprising how many people have never seen a Midas! The Mini shows are the best, we seem to get more reaction from the Mini brigade.

I won a prize at a mini show last year for best variant, Johnny's wife Mandy came second with her convertible.( Although she is much better looking than myself). Some of the unkinder members of our little group retitled my award from best variant to best deviant!

Look forward to meeting you.

Alan

Well I have finally got my corsa spyder running properly,so yes I will be there.[unless its raining profusely!] After taking the car for MOT in April,it broke down about 6 times on the way home.One new fuel pump later and a thorough clean out of all fuel lines and the tank-it did it again! New coil,and all running sweetly.It just shows you how the same symptoms can lead you down the wrong path.See you all at the show,Stan.

Drivers with kit cars get in free even if they don't go to the club stands.There is an area set out for 'Any kit car' though it would be nice to say hello to the folks that have taken the trouble with the clubs :D
Can you just come and go from the club areas or is there a restriction on driving / times etc ?
