If you like camping then definitely get a SELOC ticket and make a weekend of it. As mentioned above, there will be a full days racing on the Saturday and the SELOC Gig is always great night. Sunday is dedicated to all things Lotus.

Sunday timetable to be confirmed

All booked!
Stef, you need to update your tents and cars details (otherwise get :smt117 by Burt as I did last year!) http://forums.seloc.org/showevent.php?eid=3616

Novacaine, you'll probably have to wait for the Lotus Festival site to update to get your Sunday ticket. If you can come along for the weekend, come camping with the SELOC group :drunk:

All we need now is the owner of a certain JPS M100 with a gazebo in the boot to protect us from the rain!!!!!! :poke:

Updated thanks Shaun!

Maybe able to pack the fire pit between us, if space is not all taken by beer!

The gazebo was a life saver last year, not got one here to bring sadly... I'm sure more of the LEC gang will pipe up and add to the list! :)

I presume LEC will have a similar place to park up as previous years.

The map on their website is the same too: http://www.lotus-festival.com/event-map/

How many are going to this event?

I'd be up for it as it is only about 10 miles from me as the crow flies. The trip to the coast for fish and chips sounds like a great idea too.

Has anyone applied for a club pitch, there are no maps on the current Festival site, that I can see.

I will definitely be going, my tickets came last week!

As far as I know the pitches are the same as last year, ShaunM might be able to tell us.The event information still hasn't been updated for this year so its hard to tell from their website.

It would be nice if they could add a 25th birthday lap for the Elan M100 owners :P

I've been in touch with Paul Golding at Lotrdc, no application has been received for a stand at present, if we can have some numbers, I will apply for a stand and passes, unless anyone has done so since yesterday.
