Hi, I am planning on coming down on one of the days this weekend and was wondering how it works re parking at these shows, is it general parking or do we park as clubs/ types of kit cars etc with a few show cars on the stands shown above?

If you just let them know you are with the UK Kit Car Club, you will be shown to our stand where you're more than welcome to join us

Hi Darrell

If you are just driving down for 1 day I would make it the Saturday as people tend to start to drift off home around lunch time on the last day of a show, Sunday in this case. Newark was always a very good show in the past.

hi all going well should make it Saturday, if we park with the club do we have to stay all day on the stand or can we leave when we like ?

[Danielle]

In the past we have been able to leave as and when. I am assuming this is still the case 

[HAWKNORTH]

I plan to go Friday afternoon and camp for the weekend. Therefore my car and others that belonging to those doing the same will be on the stand by around 8.30ish Saturday and Sunday morning.  Anyone new to these shows just need to look for Robinhood cars on the stand and park up there. Simple.

Dave.

Just a note to any body camping at Newark, I was there on Sunday and the ground was like concrete so

make sure you have good tent pegs.

Weather looking to be good so see you there.

What a fabulous day I had yesterday at the Newark Kit Car Show, it was great to faces to names that I have been messaging on the forums. 

The sun shone and showed of the many different kit cars on show, what an imaginative bunch we are. A great turnout by the club, that I am sure could have seen more of us in attendance.

Wandering around the show I saw manufacturers in the main hall along with suppliers of parts, tools and 'bits n pieces' that one may need to build and tinker with their kit car, remember they are never finished!

I enjoyed talking to the owners who were more than willing to talk about their cars and offer advice to any question asked.  You could sit in cars to see if you fit, take pictures to remind you how a problem was overcome,…

All in all a great day, fingers crossed there is a Newark '23

Can anyone tell me what I haven't or have clicked that has resulted in the pictures not showing!!?!?

I think they are way to big.  You need to shrink them, preferably well below 1Mb each.   If I post pictures taken on my iPhone I resize them to be 15% of the original size.

Size isn't the problem (phnarr!) - when you upload them, there is an 'insert' link next to each attachment - if you click that, it will insert the image into the post.
