Format for the event

This will be a 2-day outdoor event, and all competitors are required to register on the Saturday. The format will be the same as the first event – cars are to be presented to visitors on both days. You will gain presentation points for this!! Those of you who were at the first event should understand how and why we do this, and will hopefully appreciate that this makes it much more fun for both the competitors, and the spectators! Again, we're not going to be stupid about this.. don't worry..!! If you need to go for lunch, or be away from cars for calls of nature etc. then obviously this is not a problem.. :)
Some exceptions to showing on both days may be authorised but please contact us at least one week prior to the event if you have a valid reason as to why you are unable to do so. You will however forfeit some presentation points if you are unable to attend both days! Pro classes particularly, will be expected to show on both days.
Since this will be an outdoor event, it will be possible to run your engines during the day in order to charge up your systems, and therefore external power sources will not be required.

Saturday 13th May

Gates open at 08.30 hrs
Competitor Registration by 10.30 hrs
Judging Starts at 11.00 hrs

We will again be planning a reasonably inexpensive night out on the Saturday evening, probably a meal at a local restaurant, so please advise if you are planning to attend at least one week in advance. It’s going to be a good night, so please try and attend if you can.

Sunday 14th May

Gates open at 08.30 hrs
Judging Starts at 10.00 hrs
Results / Prize giving at 17.00 hrs

No Chris, not really, as this is a 'show' event, and not a dealer one.. so we have to pay for the tickets.. :(
In fact, it's a pretty good deal, as the tickets for the weekend are normally £25 for entry at the gate, so in fact it's only costing an additional £10 to compete.
Dealer events will obviously work out a little cheaper, as we do not have to pay the event organisers.. ;)
