Despite having occasionally worked in one of the offices next to the banking at Brooklands, I've never visited there before. So forgive my ignorance, is this an event where we bring our cars to the stand like PoL, Gaydon, and Milton Keynes, or just visit like this weekend's Resto Show? I did have a look at the Brooklands website but it wasn't immediately obvious,hence my question.

Weybridge is awfully close to the ULEZ!

Hi there, this is an event you bring your car and park up with the group :)

[OnlySixteen]

Thank you for that.

Now need to see how that fits in with my other plans for late May.

[kevinwillis]

Who is going to this one which is in just 3 weeks time?

Have you book?

[kevinwillis]

This event is 5 days away.

It is a Bank Holiday weekend so you may have a extra day spare and if so why not come along.

Kevin,
You're not on the list, or is that an oversight?
The timing and/or location and/or weather forecast may have discouraged others, it did me.
I hope all goes well, and there's a good turnout.

[kevinwillis]

No not an oversite.

At no point had I committed to attending this one nor should it be expected that the full club shop, flags and Gazebo will be present at any give show, regalia, parts, clock repair and T4 services will be present when ever it is possible but this may not always be so and last minute hitches can effect this.

The Club will always attempt to inform members what services will be at a given show as soon as possible by add information as it is confirmed.

I was siting on the fence with this one waiting to see in number grow enough to justify a second journey down south in the space of 8 days (I was at Beaulieu last Sunday on club business). Also currently have people at mine fixing cars so it depends how that goes today now.

The bellow was posted on the clubs Facebook group 2 hours ago by the rover 200 and 400 events person which this event is a joint venture with. I have ask for more detail and am awaiting a response.

For those coming anti clockwise round the M25 or for the west it is a 10 miles detour in total but does mean you need to be on time

**** CONVOY DETAILS ****

Brooklands Best of British
Is tomorrow!

Due to the way Brooklands work, you don't get a patch and all park together, you are normally parked up as you arrive so on this note we are organising a convoy!!

We will be at Cobham Services from 8am and will be leaving at 8.40am sharp!!

I can't wait to see everyone and potentially new faces tomorrow
