Default ford fair info and advice

hi folks, me and my bro have decided we are finally go to ford fair this year, but looking at the website looks like a mass of cars everywhere, can members of passionford park together or is there space on the stand still? Second question is track time is only 30quid which seems like a bargain but can we still park with the rest of passion ford and do track time or do we have to park somewhere different? Cheers for your help. Anyone wanna convoy from south east kent? I got sierra cosworth my bro's got fiesta st. Cheers luke

you need to note passionford is not a club its just a website ,people use the name passionford to gain status and advertising ,plenty of clubs will be attending the show ,suggest you find your nearest club like kent rsoc as they are very good group .

you go as part of a group
you park up on the stand you got the pass from
you drive out to the pit lane when your track session is going to take place
you park up back on your stand when it's over

simples

Link up with Kent RSOC bruv and go with them once inside you can move the car around safely with no problems so go and do a track session, come back to the stand, have a burger etc etc

Nikki one of the passionford ladies used to do all the show bookings but unfortunately she does no longer,

I've not been aware of any passionford stands of late it is a head ache getting all the money in etc but most if not all RSOC branches have people dedicated to this purpose

lloyd, myself and jay used to do stands for shows under our former club name and we tried to do one for passionford, but the take up of peole saying "yes please" was great and we'd sort everything out but come the day to pay up, everyone would go silent so we sort of stopped putting the effort into it

as jimmy says, nikki used to do a pf stand and it was very big, but now you've got simply too many clubs vying for your loyalty and it's not going to happen again i don't think

to be a part of a group you dont need to pay at all although there are plenty of benefits if you do with specific insurance and regalia as well as getting your car officially recognised by the RSOC etc, but its optional, some specific shows like RS national day the rules are more strict but thats only once a year ,we at middx group have a wealth of paid and non paid members with or without an RS too
