Is anyone planning on going to Sportscars in the Park at Newby Hall on the 5th of May. That's a week tomorrow.

Not after enduring the yobbo's in their boombox euroboxes last year no, and I was quite disappointed to see a lot of the cars there leave not long after 12, if I had paid to get in there I would not have been happy, especially if you're paying to get in as a family it's not exactly a couple of quid. just putting myself in a spectators shoes you understand. That's my 2p anyway.

Can’t go this year but I probably wouldn’t have gone anyway. It’s getting too big now (maybe 1000 cars) and the definition of sports cars is .... wide! As Loz says, too many souped up Corsas and ridiculous stereos. The show at Lotherton Hall is much more civilised.

I'm going to be attending. Newby Hall is a good family day out, and having loads of nice cars there is a bonus so I'll be going

I might go but not showing as car still in garage.
People do leave early as it's a long day if you do stay until 16.00 but I would be annoyed if I'd paid to get in at 12.00 and cars started leaving.

I’ll be going with my red 4.7s and look forward to meeting other Maser owners. Going to be a bit nippy but no rain forecast and sunny spells.

Really good day out at the event today. Only about 4 Maser’s were there. Good selection of desirable cars, Mclaren, Ferrari’s, Aston’s and much more! Met another forum member in his beautiful motor. Apparently 1300 cars attended and mine was the only GTs there :p

They are always in the minority! I’ve seen on FB that there were some major issues with getting in. How did you find it for future reference?

It was a nightmare getting in. We should of arrived at the event at 10:05 but took 45 minutes in a stop start traffic jam, more stop with engines off. Once parked up it was fine. I did read that they changed the approach entrance road for this year, maybe they will address this in the future.
