Some answers to a few repeat questions.

What time does the show open/do we need to be on the club stand?

For club cars, the show opens at 7am, there is no cut off time that you must arrive by, but the later you arrive the less time you'll have to enjoy the show. You can leave to go home at any time throughout the day.

Can I buy entry tickets on the day and still get club parking?

Yes, the organisers have a limited quantity available from the ticket kiosk, please park in public parking and pay for entry/obtain a car pass, then join the queue for club parking. If the kiosk has run out of car passes, ClioSport has a few spares but you will need to buy your entry ticket and walk into the show and collect from the CS marquee. You can then re-enter with your car.

Is there a parade lap this year?

Yes, in memory of club member Lee Davies. You will need to complete a disclaimer form at the CS marquee. Full details here:

Will there be ClioSport stickers/merchandise available to buy on the day?

Yes, a full range of stickers and merchandise (including umbrellas and new clothing) will be available to purchase from the CS marquee throughout the day.

Is it going to rain?

There's a good chance of cloud and rain a the weekend, hopefully there's some sun too!
