This section of the forum is for news, reviews and notices of meets in London and the counties of Berkshire, Dorset, Hampshire, Surrey, West Sussex and the Isle of Wight.
Our normal base is at the Frog & Wicket Pub in Eversley Cross, Hampshire, where we hold a meet every 3 months or so.

Club merchandise is for sale at these events.

We are also looking to hold meets throughout the region, so if you have any ideas regarding venue's or you would like to organise a meet yourself and need some help, please feel free to contact me via Private Messaging (PM).

Hi Steve Can I start the list off of what I think what might be good venues for a meet and then other member can put their ideas forward

The Tank museum, Brooklands, Brands Hatch Goodwood.

And one suggested by NCFC1950 (Ian) Sammy Miller Museum

A friend of mine visited the Brooklands museum earlier this year and regarded it as a good day out. The Concorde displays were particularly worht seeing. Handy for the M3 and M25 roads too. The Cobham Bus Museum are in the progress of moving their operations to the Brooklands site, so that would be an added attraction for those who like their vehicles large and red!

My friend also told me there is a nearby "World of Mercedes" collection that could be visited the same day.

Worth a look I would say.

Unfortunatly Brooklands is not viable for a National meet due to the size of the carpark and the management there is not open to much of a discount for members. Might be worth looking at for a small local meet tho' but would be a bit pricey I fear.
Thanks for all the sugestions and keep them coming. Keep me busy over the winter ;)

Hi Steve,

I know that Brooklands are tight on their discounts but the site is big enough for a national event as I have been to many there and they can easily accommodate 300-400 cars, but it would need a lot of planning and of course a fixed date.

It is a very interesting place. :}

This has been investigated Ian and I am told the following, Parking for cars will be 25 in the main Paddock, 50 in the outer paddock & along the fencline, 60 in the Staff car park which is adjacent to the main clubhouse, so we would be split up. I don't think we really want to be split up over the site but that appears to be what they are offering. I enjoyed Brooklands when I went a couple of years ago and I will follow up on a Regional meet there; ie bigger than a local but not as big as a National :D

Get your point Steve, thanks for the response

Brooklands is somewhere I've always wanted to visit and I would certainly pop along should it be used for a meet albeit a smaller one.

Meanwhile I'll try and get the old grey matter working and think of a venue or two that might be suitable....

A meet by the sea would be nice :D

You are most welcome visit us at Weymouth Steve. I'm sure Ray & myself would be happy to help sort a venue for a meet.
