Events 2013:

BBC Radio 2 Carfest

Hi All
Any one interested in attending the BBC Radio 2 Carfest North (The one organized by Criss Evans).
www.carfest.org at Oulton Park Cheshire on the 2-4 August 2013.
It's not just about cars, there's music, food, an auction plus much more, a really good weekend if last year was anything to go by.  

Most of the regular tickets are sold out but at the moment there are some car club pitches (for up to seven cars) still available. As the entire pitch has to be paid for, it will probably cost about £100 per car that's for 1 car + 2 adults for the 3 day event. So the final price will depend on the number of cars that want to attend. The 2 passes are worth £105 each.

It is a camping weekend and there will be an additional fee of £25 per night for tents. I also made enquires as to weather the display cars can be taken out at night as some local people might like to go home or maybe others stay in a B&B, they said that this shouldn't be a problem if the cars were back in place by opening times the following day.  

If any one is interested can you let me know ASAP as I don't know how quick the limited pitches will be taken up. Obviously if more than 7 cars wish to attend it will be on a first come first serve basis. 

I will keep you posted when any more info comes in.

Cheers.....Mick Laplain
