Dico,

Club Lotus are organising a 40th anniversary Jim Clark thingy, 7-8 June.

Starts central Scotland, drive down to borders and stay over Sat night, then back to Knockhill on Sun. Maybe you could make the Sat avro in the borders, I'll need to get on to Rambo and see what he can arrange in his neck of the woods.

Sounds good Scott however we were discussing at Donington that we could merge with MLOC (I think), who by coincidence have there anual lakes trip at the very same campsite, in June too!
However it is either the 3rd week or the last week in June. I need MartinR to confirm.
Hope theres not too many folk put off by this date, it just seems a good idea to share it with some other Lotus owners and the odd porsche. They'll probably know the area too, so there may be chance of a good run out if anyone fancies that.
Martin can you confirm the date when you find out please?
:-)

I bet Knockhill isn't too far if folk decide they want to combine it into their trip. The lakes would be a good place to stop off on the Friday.
