2012 looks like being a great year for taking our car out but unfortunately we end up with the inevitable clashes.
This event clashes with Thenay but for those perhaps who cannot afford the cash or time to go to Thenay this might be an alternative.
This information was received from RCCC club member Brian Whitside.
Since“retiring” in 2003, I have been working weekends at Beaulieu as Rally Officer for car and commercial club rallies which are normally organised by the participating club and I simply oversee the event and collect themonies/tickets.
This year, we actually organised some more weekend events ourselves on the“Simply ........” theme which have been very successful and well attended - the Simply Ford event filled virtually every spaceavailable. Simply Italian, Simply Mazda and Simply Classics plus theGerman Show and Motorcycle Ride-in were all very popular.
The format is very simple (no pun intended) in that any vehicle of any age in the relevant category is welcome, no pre-booking is necessary, entry is £10 per head which entitles the vehicle to be displayed plus entry to the whole Beaulieu complex (normally about £17 per head). Clubs can have their own designated area (whatever size they require) at no cost and since participants only pay when they turn up, there is no financial burden or risk to a club.
In 2012, we are holding our first “Simply French” day on Sunday 8th July and as a Renault Classic Car Club member myself, I would be very happy to see it included as a Club event next year and organise a location for a Club area. There are numerous possibilities and opportunities at Beaulieu and Iwould be pleased to progress any ideas and thoughts to make this a special dayfor the RCCC.
