stickers now on sale but you have to have paypal!

OK details have been released

Sunday 31st August

Cars from all over Europe will converge on the Banbury facilty for 10am (Marshalls to be on site at 9am)

Prodrive will open the SWRT workshops, open the Heritage centre, fire up some of Colins cars and have a BBQ on the go with the obligatory Bacon Butties.

The main group will leave Banbury at 12 noon, hopefully led by N1WRC (this is subject to the car being taxed and MOT'ed), and join the M40 at Jct 11 westbound heading for Jct 15. Hopefully we can get the convoy from Point A to Point B in about an hour

From 1pm until 5pm the group will be located at Prodrives Warwick test facility

Only cars bearing the official sticker will be allowed access to the Test Facilty. A checkpoint will be set up both at the gates of the Warwick facility and where the convoy leaves the A4177 about 2 miles from the gates of the test facilty

Prodrive are looking into to arranging some driver demo's and hopefully will be offering Pax rides with Prodrive test drivers on varying disciplines like the skid pan and the adverse handling track. Due to Insurance restrictions only Prodrive employees will be able to take Prodrive cars out on track. All the attendee's at Warwick are to be parked on the main runway of the airfield.

Please note that ALL participants will have to carry a sticker somewhere on the FRONT of their car so they are clearly obvious to the Marshalls. This can be on paintwork or glass (for those who don't like putting stickers on paintwork!), but it must be obvious to smooth traffic flow into the Prodrive facilities. Because of that, you may wish to order two so you have a temporary one up front for the weekend and a permanent one to display on your back windscreen, stickers can be purchased from HERE
