I'm not 100% certain whether I'll have a car running well enough for this but I'll certainly try. The last one was a lot of fun even though it did mark the demise of Phil's rear end (oo eeerrr).

Looks like they're being fairly strict on noise levels so may require some of the noisier exhausts to use a bung. If it looks like I'll be competing I'll give the organisers a ring.

The site is a military parade ground near the A303 / A34 intersection.

Just put my entry in.

It does sound like sound levels are a little sensitive in the area so would be a good idea to try to get a bung or 2 to fit to the noisier ones if needed.

We'll meet at the layby on the Ringwood turn off the A31, just East of the Bournemouth spur. When it goes to 4 lanes (going East) go across to left hand lane as if going up to Salisbury then layby is on the left next to the roundabout - entrace just a short way up the Salisbury road.

https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=50.850 ... 1&t=h&z=19

It's probably about 45mins from there up to the event, so I would suggest meeting at 7-30 so we have time to change tyres on arrival.

It was an excellent days fun with 4 GT4's competing. No food as prizes, however, so I only managed 4th in class. :lol:

Hopefully Rob will have some pictures & videos to post of us all. I will link to the results & club writeups when they appear.

Got some cracking videos! In car cam was good (but only of my drive unfortunately)
Will post them up later when I figure out how. I might use google drive...

Was a great day, that heat really took it out of me though, but glad all the cars survived it.

It does appear that the withdrawn entry that we all though was a joke, does indeed exist like the guy told me on the day.

From a past event:
