Why don't they rebuild the track?

[hitch436]

that would literally be impossible, theres housing, shops and a main road that would need to be bought out

[Matt Brighton]

Looking forward to this... weather looks to be good as well

 

The Brooklands website  info mentions a hill climb  - does anyone here know if anyone can have a go on the day  / is it timed / free ?

 

Also is there a concours / show n shine to enter ?

 

Thanks

 

Matt

On previous years the test hill climb has started at 11.45 and then again at 15.15. You sign on one hour before each session and it's free. I don't know if it's timed.

They used to do a show n shine but I don't think they have done one since 2013. Instead they judge all the Mini's that attend and give awards in different categories. I won an award one year, much to my surprise.

It's a great day out and the opener to the Mini season.

Hoping to pick up set of A032 Yokos. Fingers crossed someone selling them at a good price.
