Festival of Motoring (Western Dolly Day?) 19th September

[Mad Mart]

Sunday 19th September. Weston-super-Mare Beach Lawns. FREE entry.

Basically you just turn up & park. If we meet up somewhere first, we can arrive together & park up together.

We attended last year & there were 400-500 vehicles there. Not many stalls & almost no auto jumble. But being right on the sea front you are in the heart of the resort so there is plenty to do. The new pier should be open by then as well.




Beach Lawns

Looks a good one Mart. Only about 2hrs away from Plymouth (according to Multimapdotcom) and as there aren't usually too many things going on this time of the summer (he hopes!) will put this one to the South West guys at the next meet end of this month. Could get three or four of us up there at least.

Aye, I am up for this.

Hello All,

I was thinking of meeting up in Morrisons car park, just off the A370 into Weston.

A slightly longer way round if you're coming up from the South.

Hello All,
A370,junction 21 off the M5 south?? Sounds like a good scheme to me for Sunday 19,what time are we loking at meeting up? James I trust your sprint is now running ok. Isn't there a go kart track in the new pier at Weston?
See you there
Jason.

[Mad Mart]

Yes, M5 Jct. 21. Meet up at say 9:00-9:30.

There is a Go-Kart track on the pier (when it finally opens), but it's just electric, not proper karts.

Not able to do this one now. Doing the Southern Dolly Day and TDCIR so have to shoehorn other things into the other weekends.

[Mad Mart]

Anybody else coming? We only have two Sprints at the mo & could do with a show of the other models.

[Mad Mart]

Well at least the rain held off.

Loads of nice vehicles to see, about 400-500 of them all along the beach lawns. Just a shame the new pier wasn't open on time.

You wouldn't beleive it, we live 3 miles from the sea front & after 2 the top hose split. Lukily we were near Mary's brother's house & the split was right near the stat housing. So a quick slice & we were good again.

There is a similar event around Easter time so I may organise something then, although I'll be in my track Sprint if things go to plan.
