Sadly I won't be able to join the convoy as I am heading over on Friday. Need time to clean my car haha. Don't forget to look for my yellow terror and say hi.

Thinking about this more isn't 7am too early? I see it is open to public at 10:30am. Anyone like to comment on when people normally start to arrive?

From the email that Paul sent...

Entrants should arrive between 07.30 am and 10 am and not leave until 4 pm. (Please be as early as possible as this greatly assists the organisers and you may get a better display position.)

Its just over a hour to get to corn street from chievely so may be 8.00 may be a better time to meet what do others think ? I have no preference but than i don't have to far to travel to get to chieveley

 

[Contigo]

I told the Mrs 7 am and she went mental...... I know it's a car show but she just doesn't get it and with 2 young kids she probably has a point. We should fly down there and be there for 9am at that time of day on a Sat morning.

 

[Chrisbassett]

My feeling is that 8.30 is a good time to arrive in Bristol as there will be plenty of others looking to get good spots, if we want to park the Masers together, the earlier the better.

 

[Contigo]

ok so 07:30 meet?

 

[conaero]

We are in the Main Street so I think we are all getting good spots.

 

[JonH]

Save us a couple of spaces......planning on getting there at 9.

 

[safrane]

Having been to the events since they started at the dock side many years ago I can say that the earlier you arrive the more likely you are to get your spot together...those coming late will be parked on the edges of the old town...Maserati is always well represented so we will be packed in like sardines or an over flow will be arranges.
Its impossible to reserve spaces as the marshals will be directing parking and the whole area will be one way traffic.
If you book a hotel nearby you can always park up and go back for breakfast as many have done in the past.

 

[JonH]

Tickets and directions came in post today. Massers in yellow zone, Corn Street.

 

[davidhowson]

Count us in too. We are about an hour away from the services so if we leave at 6:30am should make 7:30.
Please, would one of you PM me your mobile number so I can let you know if we have any problems getting to you in time?
Let the sun shine!!
