In preparation for Sunday here is a link to a flyer sent to me from the organisers for you to print and put in your windscreen....(so the stewards know where to send you)
https://flic.kr/p/KJJhkn
The main gate opens at 8am. If you'd like to meet up beforehand I'd suggest meeting at the Royal Oak pub (same as last year for any that came) and heading to the secondary entrance just down from the pub shortly after 9. It will avoid a lot of queuing and save a lot of time getting in. They haven't said what time this entrance opens but 9 (which is when it opened last year) is a safe bet I think. 8 may be a little early for some anyway.....
You can just arrive when you fancy though if preferred (well, before 3pm that is).
Royal Oak Pub address is: Hill Top Nursery, Beaulieu Rd, Hill Top, Brockenhurst SO42 7YR
On another note I don't think I'll be coming this year unfortunately. My car is making unpleasant whizzing / whining noises - something to do with the power steering I think. Hopefully it's a simple fix but I don't see me having time to get it sorted beforehand. I don't really want to drive it for fear of making it worse - certainly not amongst other cherished cars.
Anyway....if I don't see you, have fun!

Hey Dan!
Thanks for the info that is very good of you. Surely you can still come mate?
FWIW my old blue one used do a similar noise, Stevie at Grinspeed says it's a bearing that goes inside the unit but it has no effect on the car and will probably outlast the vehicle so I genuinely wouldn't worry about it.
Up to you of course, would be a real shame if you missed it because of this.

Cheers, that's good to know. I've read about failing o-rings on the inlet and outlet pipes - but that seems to cause sound on startup. This starts once the car has warmed up and seems to be related to revs too....more revs makes it sound worse. Belt seems to slip a bit on lock as well. Tom at TGM thinks power steering or alternator. Just need to get it there so they can hear it properly.
It may be a seal somewhere. I had a look today and it looked as if air might be getting in to the power steering fluid reservoir. Not certain yet though.
Anyway...that all belongs on another part of the forum.

How about 8:30 - 8:45 at the Royal Oak Pub (address post 47).Lewisdc5 said:Thanks
We can then head down to the nearby entrance for just after 9am - unless of course people would like to go earlier?
If you would like to go earlier the main gate does open at 8am.
For those coming from Lyndhurst I will post up a route from there to the Royal Oak Pub avoiding Beaulieu / the main entrance (or else you may get stuck in a queue of traffic)

Hi all, we won't be able to meet you at the meeting point as the earliest the B&B can serve breakfast is 8.15 and we're in Lyndhurst so we probably won't arrive at the venue until after 9.
Do you think it will be ok for us to roll up and join you on the club stand if it's after 9am? We have a stand pass and ticket in the car.
Many thanks
Marc
