Hi all, there is an event here in sunny Derbyshire on the 1st of July, I've emailed to check if kit cars are welcome. I was wondering if anyone would fancy a run out, looks a decent event. I've attached the web address so you can have a look, free admission and camping available

Celebrating 10 years of the Zero.

Anyone going??

I just might if the weather is ok

(From GBS website)

We would like to invite you all to our GBS Weekend... Our Summer Open Day which is going to be held at the GBS factory. It will be a great chance to come and meet the GBS team , look around the GBS Workshop, Machine Shop and Show Room as well as the Kit Spares Shop & showroom & a possible test drive in our Zero demonstrators. We will also be celebrating 10 years of the GBS Zero sports car so it is extra special & we hope to get a car park full of Zero's. Then on the Sunday we will be at Rockingham for a Track Day with the Zero's. Please see the track day event for more details & to book your place.
We look forward to seeing you all over the weekend & hope you will be able to join us.

We will be holding a raffle on the day for a fantastic prize that has kindly donated by Rockingham that I’m sure you would all like to WIN! Which is a Family Ticket to the British Touring Car Championship (BTCC) that is held 26th & 27th August..... Good luck!

June's meet is at:

Monk's Bridge Farm

Nobel Way,

Dinnington,

S25 3QB

Coming eastbound from the M1 J31, take a left at the roundabout by the red lion and proceed for nearly 2 miles, and Monk's bridge is the 4th exit off the next roundabout.

First Thursday of the month over the summer, rock up at Rockingham Speedway (bonus points for play on words), £2 per person, 1800-2000 hrs, park up, walk the line to view lots of other classics and modifieds, watch some drifting (various skills on display lol) and a good number of people racing the track...4 kits last Thursday + lots of saloons racing (you can pay extra to do this). Check out the Rockingham Speedway website for the full details of the event.

On the line was me with 'James the Kit' and a RAW.

A fun little evening for tiny £'s. Would be good if we could get a few RHoCAR's there, next event is 6th July.....please add you thoughts/comments etc

(PS I'm only going if it's dry lol)

It was looking quite good for June until I checked around this morning. We normally all get together at the Castle Bytham Midsummer Fair on Sunday June 18th, park up together on display and enjoy the village fair. But apparently it is now the Midsummer Festival and the new organisers have removed the 'Classic Car' banner from the web page (http://www.midsummerfair.co.uk/). I have contacted them to ask if this was intentional or are we are still welcome to attend. Watch this space.

Then I checked our regular hangout at 'GearHeads at the Ground' in Newark, only to find the June meet has been cancelled.

So that just leaves the GBS Open Day on Sat 10th June (http://www.greatbritishsportscars.co.uk/events-2/), which I will probably attend.

I'm off on holiday again next week (I know, it's a hard life but someone has to do it) so when I get back I should know about Castle Bytham. If they don't want us I will organise something else.

So I have managed to sort a photoshoot opportunity for the rhocar community to be held on Saturday the 3rd (next Saturday).

The photoshoot will be conducted by a Motorsport photographer who is currently working alongside Bentley Motorsport and M-sport to provide photographs of their GT3 race days and is also the coalville town football clubs main photographer.

The shoot will take place in Leicestershire. Specific location not yet decided but will be in the Leicestershire area.

Time for the shoot are from 10am until 12am

I have managed to get a discount for club members. prices are an absolute bargain at just £5 per vehicle.

Please check out his Facebook page to see the quality of his work and I'm sure you will all agree that at just £5 it is a absolute steal.

Please let me know if you are interested in this so I can arrange a suitable location

Next Wednesday, 31st May, 7pm onwards, Malt Shovel Pub, Coventry Road, Nr Stonebridge, Coventry, CV7 7HL
