As far as I know (BUT TO BE CONFIRMED!) we all meet at 7:30am at the entrance to Leeds Castle where we will be directed into a holding field so the clubs can group together. Once all present we'll then move up to the castle area itself for 8am where the club stands are (its a pretty big site ).

Last year everyone grouped together at the motorway services and it caused a nightmare, hence we're doing it in a field by the castle entrance.

[Scott.T]

We are still waiting for official timings.

[Bytes]

OK, I'll await further destructions

[Danwrx]

Right so just got my email confirming everything, ie times we have to be there ect, just wondering if there is a convoy travelling up from eastbourne as I'm proper useless with directions and will probably end up in leeds itself so would be good to have some one to follow lol.

Hi Ross, I have paid for 3 donations using my paypal account.

I have not received an email so will be Emailing you later today.

This must be a nightmare for you.

Thank you for all your time in setting this up.

[Bytes]

I haven't received an email either.... assuming the contents of the email are the same for us all, can someone copy & paste them here please?

[Willowsdad]

Check your junk mail. That's where mine was. I could paste my email on here, but you need to make sure they've got your reg and details so you can get in.

[Steve_PPP]

I got the email too, but it was in my Hotmail junk folder - check there guys

[Ginola]

I received e-mail (all my mail goes to Junk if there not in my address book!)

However my REG number was not on the e-mail, Im assuming all is ok, I did e-mail through before about not placing my reg on the original donation, I put Ginola(SES)

Did not get a response to that e-mail though.

looking forward to the event, not looking forward to the 5am start! :P

Hello all,

First of all, everyone here at Team Supercar Siege would like to thank you for your generous donation.
Without the effort of those displaying the cars, the show would simply be two middle aged men stood in a field looking fabulous.

I'm sure the biggest questions on everyone’s mind right now is “how do we get into the venue?”

All we need is for drivers (who have donated) to turn up promptly between 07:30hrs and 08:30hrs on Sunday the 18th of May.
You are heading for Leeds Castle Main Entrance, please note there are road works signs at the entrance road but you can still gain access.

Once inside the first gate you will be met by our staff who will simply need to know which club stand you are on. If you shout and scream your club name as you enter we will be very happy.
From there they will direct you to one of four zones in the exterior car park which will enable you to collect your display pass.
Once you have your pass we will instruct you to head on in where you will be met by more staff who will assist you to park in the correct location.

We have chosen to do this so we have no issues with cars meeting at the service station as per last year.

If you have friends and family who wish to come along to the show separately yourself, please follow this link to our Facebook page where you will find a 2 for 1 voucher: Facebook

Timings: Clubs stands entrance opens at 07:30hrs and closes at 09:00hrs.
Public opening time: 10:30hrs
Closing: Cars on display will be allowed to leave at 16:30hrs. (The last tickets for the public will be sold at this time).

Address:
Leeds Castle,
Maidstone,
Kent
ME17 1PL

If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to contact me.

[SUBARMAN]

Looking forward to seeing some of you next week!!

[Frenchie]

Hi Scott,do you have a venue and time for us all to meet up for handing out the passes?

[simonairheadz]

I will be greeting you all on the gate so say hello
To the baldchap in a pink hi vis with airheads on lol

[LeonTurbo]

Is there any convoy on the way?

[Willowsdad]

There's one leaving yours at 7am.

[Scott.T]

Due to the location of this event, people are coming from 360 Degree directions, so no meet point for SES is planned.

If you have a local group/meet point then please arrange yourselves.

We aim to be at Leed's main gate for around 7:50-8:00am, please schedule your journey to rendevouse at Leed's for a similar time, as this will help facilitate the entrance & stand parking arrangements.

[LeonTurbo]

Shall we pop up there together then Paul? Just wondered if anyone wants to meet on the way. Still haven't got the car no where ready

[Willowsdad]

Well I'm picking your brother up so no point in going down separately. I've got whole day set aside for detailing Saturday. Still won't be up to my standards though.

[LeonTurbo]

[QUOTE=Willowsdad;187969]Well I'm picking your brother up so no point in going down separately. I've got whole day set aside for detailing Saturday.

Oh sorry About that. Well I got to do my car too if I go. Will just have to get the elbow grease out Saturday evening. Thas if I still go.

[Danwrx]

I've still got loads to do aswell, finally fitted my new calipers and discs today after having a nightmare bleeding them, car goes in tomorrow to get rear arch repaired, get car back either Friday afternoon (hopefully) then car goes to Craig aka sti Mayhew for four new tyres sat morning then get car back, fit new front drop links and roll bar bushes, then clean, polish and wax the car. Not to much to do, should be finished just in time to wake the mrs and kids up and leave for the castle lol

[Willowsdad]

Be well prepared for the front roll bar bushes. I replaced my front arb and it took forever. The nut blocked by the sub frame was a weird size between 7/16 and 12mm, and made of butter. Rounded off completely and had to bash it off with a hammer and chisel. Make sure you've got some spare nuts just in case. Front droplinks were a lot easier than the rear though.

Cheers for the heads up mate I'm not looking forward to doing any of it to be honest as I just wanted to spend the time polishing it but needs must an all that

[LeonTurbo]

You done it in the end then. I'll always lend a hand if you need bert

Yeah but it was an absolute nightmare. Had to dremel a slice in the nut, then hammer it off. But on one side the weld holding the bolt in snapped. I then had to cut it off with an hacksaw blade and snap it, and then put a new nut and bolt in. Glad it's finished tbh.

[s_300]

[Willowsdad]

Very nice. Looks like I got lucky that hoodies were out of stock, and I had to swap to a polo shirt which arrived 10 minutes ago. Looks like nice weather for cleaning on Saturday too.
