Donington Show?
To be run by the peeps who do Stoneleigh?
Stolen from Totalkitcar:
"BREAKING NEWS....Monday, February 18 1600hrs…
We’ve just received a press release from Stoneleigh show organisers, Grosvenor Exhibitions, which reads as follows:
Grosvenor Exhibitions, organisers of the world's largest kit car show, Stoneleigh, have confirmed that the Donington Kit & Performance Car
show will go ahead in 2008. With years of experience in organising kit car shows, Roger Cooling has decided to add the show to their already busy
schedule of 20 other exhibitions this year, and proceed with organising the show on its established dates of Saturday 13 & 14 September 2008.
Cooling has confirmed that the venue is booked and says: "It would be a shame to lose such as important event in the kit car calendar."
For more information on this one call Grosvenor on 01775 712 100..."
I hope they resurrect the track day!
Mike

Cool. I've never been when they've had he track day but last years wasn't too bad. Made better by the owners cars parked up but the
price was too much and to charge a re entry fee for people who camped overnight was a bit of a swizz.

What, so Limelight are holding a track day at Donnington but a show at Stafford and on the same weekend, Grosvenor are holding a show at
Donnington?
Which show are the exhibitors going to?

It may be ok, but last years effort was poor compared to previous years, was only saved by a pleasant evening spent with the Robin Hood owners club
and there hog roast.
With the extra shows at Peterborough,Bruntingthorpe and Stafford there may be to many shows although I am looking forward to getting to them all if
possible.

Somehow I don't think it will be a patch on Detling. Last year's effort was a complete waste of time for most of the exhibitors - very
poor turnout.
Cheers,
Raz
When thinking outside the box doesn't work any more, it's time to build a new box

Beware of the Goldfish in the tulip mines. The ONLY defence against them is smoking peanut butter sandwiches.
