Rover Sports Register Forum

I shall, as usual be coordinating the RSR attendance at the Midlands Festival Of Transport, Weston Park, Shropshire.
On 4/5 th April 2010 Weston Park, Shropshire, TF11 8LE
http://www.transtarpromotions.com/westonpk.html
As it's publicity says it is the number one Easter show in the Country, now in the 23rd year. Over 1500 exhibits, arena displays, large autojumble, trade stands, plus lots more.

The show is organised by Transtar and entry forms can be obtained from them, they usually have a downloadable version but as of the time of writing this their website does not have them. The RSR would like to invite ANY Rover to join us, but if you wish to display your vehicle with the RSR please specify the club on your application form to make sure we have a space allocated.

I look forward to seeing as many West Midlands Rovers, or from further a field, over the weekend. If we know we have a definite number for the Monday maybe we can organise a bring and share barbeque!!

I may be able to come on the Monday.

That would be nice Richard, I am really hoping we can get a big gathering of Roers there. Can you pass on the details to the Midlands 800 owners.

I have downloaded the application from from the transtar web site and added the club name and pdf'ed it.

It is here http://thersr.org/wp/wp-content/uploads ... m_2010.pdf

Please copy and pass on.

Cheers

It's on my "to do" list as well. Perhaps I can go for monday, too.

I have now entered for the Monday, I couldn't do both days due to working

I can't go - moving overseas has scuppered that plan!

Sorry to hear that Richard,

as its now just under 2 weeks left, entries should officially be in, but I think its still OK to enter.

Anyway, who else is coming? I shall be there Sunday/Monday

We used to go every year until 3? years ago (and joined the RSR stand) but that year we had to queue over 1½ hours to get in - numerous cars broke down in the wait. We had noticed that traffic management actually inside by Weston park staff was getting more dire each year and causing more problems that it cured (making pre-booked entrants join the same queues as those paying with £20 notes and fiddling with change) so we have not been since.

We do like Transtar events a go to many of them but are not prepared to wait longer to get in to events on busy main roads than it takes to drive 65 miles even in a P2

I've never had a problem like that going into Weston - but we have usually come in early and I've mainly been there on the Sunday.
