as long as you have a stand pass it should be fine mate, doesn't say which one anywhere other than on the covering letter anyway
RE: French Car Show 2017 - Donington - 15th & 16th July 2017 - Eeyore - 10-07-2017
I've spoken to mark and he has said we have less than ten cars on stand. Therefore we do not have a dedicated stand and have been pushed into a general area with other clubs...
Please can everyone check their stand or entry pass. Blue is on stand. Black is public. If you didn't state 306oc then we have an issue.

Mark down thinks we only have ten cars on stand. The maximum number that gets clubs thrown in the shared area. He's currently looking into the possibility of us having a stand. If you haven't already please check the colour of your stand pass!
RE: French Car Show 2017 - Donington - 15th & 16th July 2017 - Frosty - 10-07-2017
I've got a blue one and says 306oc on my invoice.
RE: French Car Show 2017 - Donington - 15th & 16th July 2017 - MY95 - 10-07-2017
Ditto with Frosty
RE: French Car Show 2017 - Donington - 15th & 16th July 2017 - Dum-Dum - 10-07-2017
Same here, blue stand pass and says 306oc on my invoice.
RE: French Car Show 2017 - Donington - 15th & 16th July 2017 - bashbarnard - 10-07-2017
blue as well here
RE: French Car Show 2017 - Donington - 15th & 16th July 2017 - Chris_90 - 11-07-2017
Mines blue also with 306oc on the invoice.

Just seen that we've been moved to a bigger spot on trade stands[emoji106]

Yes we have been moved to a bigger spot backed up against trade. Should be super easy to get out onto track now!
Original Map
Where we are now (map goes right of the above)
Essentially everyone is front row so make sure theyre clean!
RE: French Car Show 2017 - Donington - 15th & 16th July 2017 - Eeyore - 11-07-2017
so using the scale on the map looks like we have 50m of length. Make it 45. We have apparently 15 cars on stand so thats 3m width per car. Its also about 7m Deep so can squeeze in a second row if needed. Otherwise looks like we have 3 meters width per car which is more than enough.
I suggest we park staggered like ///////////// so that cars are more visible and look better. If there is extra room we can get the marquee up but not sure how to secure it if there is a slight breeze on the day. If someone has track/road wheels we can use those to tie down to.

Gutted I cant make it this year! Hopefully it will get a good turnout next year too
Hope you're planning to arrange the cars in age order if its one big line
RE: French Car Show 2017 - Donington - 15th & 16th July 2017 - Frosty - 11-07-2017
Look like a bit of a better location, bit more in the mix of it so hopefully be a busy spot.
Any idea where the camping is to?

apparently you can get from camping to the site without any public roads. Booze ahoy! Specifics should be in the ticket pack?

Actually mate it would still be illegal to drive while over the prescribed limit (alcohol or drugs) in the circumstances as although it isn't a public road it is a place to which the public have access at the material time by virtue of payment or otherwise. (ie as anyone could pay to camp it's a public place)
RE: French Car Show 2017 - Donington - 15th & 16th July 2017 - Chris_90 - 11-07-2017
I won't be arriving till around 10am so save me a space guys

Ok cool, do you reckon they will be a spot where we can all camp together like at coombe?
RE: French Car Show 2017 - Donington - 15th & 16th July 2017 - Eeyore - 12-07-2017
yeh so the campsite is meant to be massive. there is meant to be food on site as well! remember the showers are coin operated.
http://parkfarmhouse.co.uk/caravan-site/
• 60 grass pitches for tents, caravans and small motorhomes
• Up to 200 overflow pitches for major race meetings
• 24 hard-standing pitches for caravans & motorhomes less than 7m
(reserved for motorhomes only on busy weekends)
• Hard-standing area for up to 4 extra-large motorhomes
• 50 Electric hook-up (EHU) points
• Toilets and showers cleaned regularly (L1 per use of shower)
• Chemical waste disposal
• Hotel restaurant and bar open for drinks, bar snacks and meals
• Supermarkets, pubs and restaurants just a 5 minute drive away
There is access from the campsite directly into the show as well by the gate you can see on that web page. I suggest we setup camp in the top right to try and get away from people?
RE: French Car Show 2017 - Donington - 15th & 16th July 2017 - Frosty - 13-07-2017
Ok ideal, what time are people planning to get there?
RE: French Car Show 2017 - Donington - 15th & 16th July 2017 - Eeyore - 13-07-2017
6pm! Leaving at 4!
RE: French Car Show 2017 - Donington - 15th & 16th July 2017 - Orta - 13-07-2017
It's only 30 mins from work, I'll probably be there 5-6.
Sam are you travelling up with the usual east Anglian contingent ?
Is the campsite separate to the main track? Easy to spot? Separate postcode?
