Autosport International Absentees
I was suprised that the HSCC didn't have an official presence at the show..or did I miss it?

I didn't see it - very little on Club racing at all, besides the 750MC and BRSCC stands.

EERC were tucked away on a side wall near the Coys stand

T Cars had a stand close to the BMMC as did Formula BMW.

I did see EERC but they were a bit busy when I went past - did the Nurgburgring logo on the stand mean they are competing in the 24-Hours there - any reasonably priced drives going?

Can anybody enlighten us as to how pricey it was to have a stand?

A big stand like BARC's would have been in the tens of thousands of pounds - I'm disappointed not to see them there, but you can see why they don't go. Little stands are a few grand I believe.

Not Thread Hi-Jacking but....
I went on the Friday and was pretty dissapointed...Thought the whole things was a bit flat, the maps in the guides were next to useless so spent ages wandering (Really should have a navigator for these Southern events) and generally there was a lack of atmosphere. Maybe it was me but...... |

I think a lot of the Historic/Classic people have plumped for the Historic show at Stoneleigh instead

Paul Sands,
Not sure about costs at the Historic show, but i would imagine that scantily clad females would not be the norm there! I've read the pr stuff and it looks like there'll be quite a lot else there though! |
