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

Re: DDK Meet Edition 2 - 2025 - discussions thread
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.
