That will mean you won't get there until midday Rob!
:lol: well it did turn out to be 10:45.
Very disappointing to see only about a dozen 800s
The BMC/BL Rally isn't for another month or so Rob? :?:

OK, I was at the BMC & Leyland show today. Are you refering to something else?

Blame the Club committee, no stand set out, no planning, no Chairman til nearly 11am, piss poor.

Gaydon via Cowley. I was just wondering if there's another meet that I can make.

My confusion, I see now that your referring to Peterborough.

It's all as clear as mud now Rob! :wink: :lol: :P

You probably could make the Peterborough BMC/BL Rally as an "on the day" entry but you'd need to be there early-ish to try and get on the 800 stand as from what i've been told, entries "on the day" will probably be put into the age-appropriate section, not the pre-booked 800 section.

It's too late to pre-book now, today was the deadline.
Cheers,
Dave

They said the same last year and cars arrived and just parked up on the stand as there was room anyway, worth taking a chance and if you let us know what time your coming someone could be there to guide you in.

It was taken a while after we got there. Probably about 1030-1045 - things didn't improve! By lunchtime people were already going home! :shock:

Checking on the website the last show the club supported was Gaydon in 2017? The website seems to have gone backwards, seems a shame, makes you wonder what's going on with the club.
