and 3 hours aint that long....

its an absolutely awesome show, was by far my favourite of last year (ok, i only went to 5, but it was by far the best!).

Just a thought, if your car is on the stand will it be ok to be racing too? Its just my car is being rebuilt for this show with the specific intention of racing as much as possible, because last year we only got 4 runs in, due to various reasons............

(one of them being still setting the timing and needles up on the M1 on the way down there - and the second one that I was so knackered from spending the night before until 3 am putting the new engine in!).

Whilst i'd love to be on the stand, if it will make things difficult because of the racing then thats cool!

oh yeah - and EVERYONE has to make it! It'll be a great way to get to know each other before dropping in at the deep end of the BH2N run.

I'll be showing my face on one of the days me thinks, not sure which one yet tho!!

Will throw mine down the track so long as i have the new head on!!

...a good warm-up for BH2N!

ok how much is it?

[Guess-Works.com]

usually about 30/40 quid all in if you want to go down the track, otherwise I think it's a tenner a day. the BMC have not published any prices yet... but this is what you want to keep an eye on...

[Teapot]

It's definitely on my calendar but I'm just waiting to see if my local club makes any arrangements to go in convoy since that would be my first obligation.

[tipcat]

I've already been called a traitor by my local club - they're doing a Classic car show on the Sunday - but I decided a weekend of Minis and camping was more interesting!

[Pippy]

We should be up for this one.. I'll bring Percy and Phil <hubby> can bring Nobby - who should be tarted up in his B2N livery and sponsorship stuff.

We'll come down for the sat, camp over, get p... sorry merry and then we will have to leave mid morning on sun as have to do stuff.

but, it'll be worth it to see Pickup get that Jet Black down the strip!!! he He

[Badoff]

YEH definately up for this one. Been to the last two (my mini only made it to one though) unfortunately couldnt afford to take it down the track. Dunno if my mini will make it to this one either would like to get it on the stand but can i still camp with you guys? Dont want to put my name down just incase she doesnt make it.
