Stoneleigh confirmed for Sat and Sunday 28th and 29th August (Bank Hol)
I see from the CKC Mag that Stoneleigh National KitCar Show is confirmed for the Saturday and Sunday of the August Bank Holiday weekend (28th and 29th August).
Since the site is due to be bisected by the High Speed Rail HS2 and that Hall 1 is still likely to be used (or kept available) for mass Covid vaccinations there will be some layout changes. Hall 3 is now permanently rented out to a Haulage Co and that leaves Hall 2 where the Car Show will be held. I think that's the smaller Hall at the back - but I may be wrong.
The planned Newark Show (intended for July) has been cancelled for this year - according to Grosvenor the event organiser .
I have also today received confirmation that the Goodwood Festival of Speed (8th -11th July) is now fully booked and has been confirmed as a so-called Pilot Event (being monitored by the Events Research Programme - whatever that is). Effectively it means that anyone attending must have had either 2 jabs 14 days or more before the event or a negative Lateral Flow Test within 48 hours of the event.

Now then Pete, that's a bit of a coincidence cos I was just about to go and check on whether they'd updated the website yet - and they have, so we have to assume it'll be going ahead. The venue itself hasn't updated their own "What's On" page yet but that's not an issue.
As this now seems to be going ahead, and I get the feeling this might be the last such event there what with HS2 making progress, my feeling is that we should be attending as a club and holding our AGM. I'll update the appropriate forum thread accordingly once we've made a few inquiries.

Hall 2 is the biggest and newest one. The hall that they've had trouble filling, of late.
Hall 3 is the one at the top end of the original row of Agricultural type 'sheds'.

Hi Ken - snap ! I've also just spoken to the Grosvenor folk and confirmed a booking of our usual plot (but he did mention that you had been in touch) . Apparently the site disruptions dont affect our usual corner location so we should be oK.
I'll send off the booking form if you are OK with that (if not PM me and I'll back off)

Cheers both! In that case, I'll assume a marquee can be arranged (I'll leave it to Ken and Pete - don't need a third person sticking their oar in) and I'll now update the AGM thread.
