What were the arrangements for tickets last year Paul i can't remember?
I'll be PMing people shortly to ask for car details, contact details, and the money @ £10 per car per day (nissansportz paying Members get their tenner back on the day). Then I'll arrange it all with Leeds Castle :)

I plan to book this with Leeds Castle on Monday so it's last orders folks :thumbs:

Don't forget paid up nissansportz Members get in for free!

Beyond Monday I might still be able to get you in so please ask if your plans change and you are able to come :)

I've been in touch with the organisers today and we still have (very limited) space for this event. This could be your chance!


You might recognise a car or 2 in this video :)

Paul just wanted to check that you also have my dad down as coming in his Austin Healey on the Sunday?

Also will it cause issues If I have to come in an alternative car? (Having Z issues which may remain unsresolved before then)

Ah, I missed that, but he is now officially on the list!

It won't be a problem changing cars as such, but can you PM details of the alternative car so I can warn the organisers? I hope your Z is sorted in time though :)

Also, if anyone is interested, some of us will be meeting up for a meal out on the Fri and Sat night in Ashford.

If you'd like to come along then let me know and I'll get you added to the table :)

I should receive the entry forms soon. When I do I'll PM them to people and you will need to bring these on the day (but I will have spares with me). I'll send all the full details out but, basically you need to be at the Castle no later than 09:00 (late cars will not be allowed in) and you can leave any time after 16:30. As part of your entry you have access to the Castle and all the facilities there :)

It's good news about the meal, I've booked a table at our local and I will call them up to ask for more seats! Will you be coming with anyone?

Great day great venue great weather thanks for organising Paul and nissansportz, its got to be the most pleasant place for a car event in the south. Easy in and easy out good value etc especially considering the ticket gives access to the whole of leeds castle.
One disappointment only 3 240z .which was a shame
