I can confirm the above is the current plan. Hadn't posted it as I was asked not to by the organisers until it was all confirmed.

I might well be able to make this as it's closer. Depends if it clashes with work but I'll certainly attempt to make it!

It's a really refreshing change for organisers to realise not everyone lives in the South West. Will enjoy the event doubly knowing I'm only 40 minutes from home

I think its a good move. It had started to get a bit samey every year at castle combe so a different venue should fresh it up a bit. Bit more of a drive for me but it is certainly more central for everyone which is a good thing. I'm looking forward to it.

its a welcome move for me as well. Track is different, the show will be less spread out which is nice. I remember going there years ago and it was a good day out. Only issue will be camping. Will have to see what they come up with otherwise I imagine we will book a field somewhere as a club and then drive down in the morning!

Was about to say - good times this! This was often better than the show - slightly more relaxed rules and the morning drive across, being woken by those damn DERVs

Was thinking the same, any local members that could scope the joint out for us?
