I really cannot recommend this event highly enough.
A truly great day out for all the family. Ideal for spectators as the track is only feet away, you are free to wander around the paddocks, talk to the owners, visit the Bugatti museum.... all included in the entry price
Here is a bit of info from their website:
As last year we will have racing on both days with practice runs in the morning.
Saturday is for classic English cars, Sunday sees our celebration of all things Francais.
By special arrangement we have The Battle of Britain Memorial Flight, including the Lancaster, Spitfire and Hurricane Saturday 23rd May only undertaking a full display; Sunday will see a special display by a French Stampe bi-plane. Don't miss this unique event
You can enjoy some superb cars on both days, including the Veyron (we don't know how many this year, but the count is rising) and the Bugatti EB110 (chassis #1), the spectacular car that preceded the Veyron.
For petrolheads the blurb on the EB110 is as follows: The car has a 60-valve, quad-turbo V12 powering all four wheels through a six-speed gearbox. The 3.5 L (3499 cc) engine has a bore of 81 mm (3.2 in) and a stroke of 56.6 mm (2.23 in) and is capable of 542 hp (404 kW) at 8000 rpm. Acceleration to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 4.5 seconds, and the GT has a top speed of 213 mph (343 km/h). Oh My!
What else - well our handsome Gendarmes will be patrolling to keep us Rosbif in our place. The Can-Can girls will be showing an unseemly amount of leg and this year we shall have a special tent where our Legionnaires will be more than happy to sign you up for a spell in the desert, no questions asked!
Latest News by popular demand the ex- Ayrton Senna turbo powered Renault engined F1 Lotus T98, will be back for 2009
Well, Veyrons, Senna, Spitfires, Lancasters, Hurricanes and English Classic Cars all on the Saturday. Does it get any better
