Yes.
There are many new members in and around the forums.
For sure, this place is probably one of the friendliest you will find!

Yes!
Get your tickets booked now.
There will be over 60 members camping over the Friday and Saturday nights, so it's a great opportunity to meet us all, and our cars.
This year the 306's will also be able to have a parade lap around the track.
And, it's not THAT expensive either

Last year wasn't the best, but the weather didn't help with that! It's moved to a new location this year and they have a mega amount of traders/exhibits/sponsors, so it should be good! We will also be involved in the 306 parade lap
Camping is also massively win, and will be the first real meet for this club. I'm definitely looking forward to it!

I your fairly new to the 306, you will come away from the show with so many new ideas! Some of the cars there are truly epic.....some tragic (but I think saxp are in the middle of the track this year?) and we're all a really friendly bunch so come over and have a chat!

Whoa whoa whoa!
There is no need to even ask that question... Get yourself down there! Lol
But seriously, go once, and you'll be going every year. This will be my 4th, and still love it...
