Ian_C Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 Just a possibility. Rutland Water. Almost five weeks away, hence enough warning still. Large enough car park if an A8/S8 only section is required! Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A8_Tony Posted April 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 I've had a suggestion from Botang (thanks fella ) , and having looked at the website it would seem that it would be a superb venue for our meet. The bonus is that they're used to having car meets, as they've been a firm favourite with the hot rod/custom car events for many years. They also have superb facilities, that will mean we can make a real good day of it. The place is Billing Aquadrome, it's easily accesible, has great facilities and I think offers a great venue for us to have our inaugral meet. If you want to have a look at what's available then click on http://www.billingaquadrome.co.uk to see what's on offer. I'm up for this, and have e-mailed the events organiser to see what weekends are available through June and August. If we could have names below for interest, it'd be most appreciated A8_Tony + 1.75 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Botang Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 Updating Tonys Link as they appear to have uploaded a new website today by chance http://www.billingaquadrome.com/ [ QUOTE ] Facilities at a glance... jet ski lake • fishing • crazy golf • 12 acre amusements park • fairground • quad bikes & go carts • cafe, take-away, fish & chips • licensed bars [/ QUOTE ] Billing Mill Pub is located just accross the river (2 minute walk) which is a typical punch taverns pub with the usual reasonably priced menu. Alternatively and weather dependant I should be able to organise a bit of a barbeque as I'm only 6 miles or so away from Billing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
