At this point in time this is a big YES. Whose up for camping, drinking home brew vodka and keeping the neighbors up to the wee hours :-D . I'll try and not end up having an allergic reaction to my sun cream this time as well!! :oops:

A quick Google later :-D :wink:

https://tickets.motorsportvision.co.uk/calendar/race-event-details.asp?ProductID=3900

If last year was anything to go by coupled by this from the World Record E-Mail

Full details of the 2010 Snetterton Lotus Festival which will be held at Snetterton on 19th-20th June will be released in the next couple of weeks. This years event should be much bigger and better than last years hugely successful event.


It will be much worth it for anybody with the amount of racing, displays and other things going off even if we don't get the World Record and Elan 20th Parades we had last year!! :-D

M100 21st ?
LEC 11th?
GBoR - record no of n/s front dust caps nicked?

Maybe if we get Elan enclosure with just a load of us on display as per last year? :wink:

Maybe the stand this year if there are enough of us? :-D

Looks like two threads the same this one and viewtopic.php?f=28&t=16879

For those that like camping then SELOC is organising a similar event to last year http://www.lotus-festival.com/seloc.html or here http://forums.seloc.org/showevent.php?eid=2389

Last year was a great weekend especially camping with Graham, Nic and Kim and Iain. The music and entertainment on the saturday night was really good and at £30 for the whole weekend, that's only £5 more than the official Motorsport price for gate entry on the sunday only!

When I get back from holiday next week, I speak to Paul and see if we can get an encloseure for our M100's again like last year, worth a try!

Keeping all the Elan M100's together is an excellent idea, won't be camping as it is a nice run to Snetterton.

:oops: Didn't know about the gap in the fence until later. It was dark at the time. In my state it was amazing I saw the fence at all!
I blame Shaun: His vodka was a bit potent & someone had to give his anti-hangover pill a proper test. :twisted:
At least the pill worked though! :drunk:
