Ty Croes Parade Lap 2014! 7th September

[Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman]

Lancashire & Cheshire Car Club and MG Car Club NW warmly invite you to the

WSCC MEMBERS VISIT and PARADE LAP

Weekend 6 & 7 September Parade: 7 September 2014
FREE ENTRANCE TICKETS

 

This was a fantastic event last year, and a great opportunity to enjoy a couple of laps round the Ty Croes circuit, behind the Pace Car. Entry to the event is free, as is over night camping. You WILL require tickets in advance though, (from me), or you will be charged on the gate.

 

The sprint takes place both Saturday and Sunday, the 6th and 7th of September. With the parade lap, held, just like last year over the Sunday lunchtime break,

 

Again just like last year, its open to anyone with a full UK drivers license, (which you must bring to signing on), with the exception of drivers competing in the Sprint. (Sorry folks, that's an MSA requirement, outside our control).

 

Please see the attached invitation for full details. 2014 WSCC Visit & Parade Invitation.pdf

 

We had a fantastic time last year, and were made most welcome!

 

 

And what a great selection of cars we had!

 

 

 

 

As you can see, we had a wide selection of cars too, including many well known Speed Series vehicles!

 

Ty Croes is a really picturesque circuit, (for those that don't know), located on the SW side of Anglesey, so it's a great run through some brilliant Welsh touring roads to get there.

 

Please let me know by midnight on the 31st August whether you can take part, so that I have time to send you your ticket.

 

Edited to add, we now have the final instructions for signing on etc - please see "Parade Visit Details", below.

SWMBO, Wendy (onliest tigger) fancies driving.

[Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman]

I'll put you down provisionally then David. Understand, if you don't make the list - good luck. (The chances are usually much better than it looks on paper, from what I recall).
