OK, yesterday I had to sort out the last piece of the jigsaw puzzle and pluck up courage and went to see my neighbours at the new workshop. They are both high flying lawyers but they were more than happy for us to have the show on site.
So I guess we will have to call the show the "Stoke Row and Nuffield Racing Car Show and Classic Car Tour". We are going to need some more signs Al. . Committee meeting in a couple of weeks so more info will be posted then. |

Not wanting to have a PoP (see what I did there ) but I'm sure your show will be better value than Cholmondely, Iain......I'll try to find an excuse to venture South again, perhaps in something suitable for the rally....

Iain, you could always rearrange Stoke Row so it doesn't clash with various individual marshalling calendars.

OK, Progressing from last year,"we had a couple of soap box machines for the kids. Proved very popular, anyone know anything about these vehicles . I know I sent a set of seat belts a couple of years ago to a fellow tenther through being contacted on the forum, sorry cant remember who it was.
We have a field behind the workshop with a fair old slope ,I can get the grass cut no problem. Be great to have half a dozen machines built and raced. WDYT. |

Iain, check out Kop Hill climb website they run a soap box event for children, I think you could perhaps do something similar.

As for the H&S aspect and "ambulance chasers", best to move the whole weekend to Spain !

Thanks Peter, We are moving the show a couple of miles up the road to Nuffield.Where the ---- is Nuffield I hear you say.
Well Delta HQ are there but more important this was the residence of Lord Nuffield "William Morris" the creator of Morris cars. Just bought a book about him facinating. |

Hi Iain, just wanted to add my 2p's worth, if nothing more than to keep an eye on this thread.
Craven Motor Club will once again be planning and running the "classic tour" as you call it. I prefer the "Maharajas Tour" and I don't think I'm giving anything away by saying the route will be running through Stoke Row and past the Maharajas Well. I will be examining the rule book to see if we can add a competitive element but I fear that it will take the form of tour with a treasure hunt to keep you on your toes. Looking forward to it and I hope the weather improves.... Bryan Joint Clerk of the Course Maharajas Tour. |

The good news is that permit has been granted by the MSA and the route of the Maharajas Tour is planned and awaiting approval by the MSA's Route Liason Officer.
Road book to be written for the tourists...... |

Route survey and road book written yesterday. It's a cracking 60 mile + run through the Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire countryside. Hopefully everyone will enjoy it.
I'm planning on checking the road book next weekend with my other half and her Mother doing the navigating, with me sat in the back, wish me luck..... |

Road Book survey was interesting......I think I'm still in a relationship.....
Roads have dried out massively since the weekend before. Lagonda will be an excellent choice. |
