Not me I’m afraid Clive - the Boxster is way to new, only the driver qualifies on age!

Deleting the Star' bit, I have entered my 73T ex-hillclimb 911 into the event.
I have hillclimbed there for 14 years in the 911, it will be really nice to do it again, BUT....

There are a few hurdles to jump to get in, car is OK.
Driver is OK, I'm far more qualified than wippersnapper Wayne.

Issue is the very big queue, and if your car is suitable for the show.

This is Shelsley's sort of Goodwood with lots of variety taking the room.

I suspect there will be around 200 car places on the days.

My fingers and spanners are crossed for an entry confirmation, but not confident.
Confirmations will be about a month in advance of the event.

I will be on the way back from the first part of the month in France, first thttps://www.lemansclassic.com/en/ then head South for the following weekend at https://youtu.be/h1oPNP-JZjI?si=xiAdUG49JPNb0dfZ - 8 years since my last one [ you can see that Jaffa 911 has evolved!] and 15 years since the first- I was at the first 4!
Then back up to UK for our weekend and then home to the West Coast of Ireland.

We are a week in and places filling fast.
If you have received a PM giving booking details for hotel/events, and not yet booked them, please do so immediately, we need to track actual booked numbers.
