id be ok for either really,although bluewater is a bit of a trek and there not guaranteed to be ok with us meeting there. i personally prefer jono's idea as i only live round the corner from lydden and also because im sure it would be a brilliant place for us all to meet, and most people should have the day off work as its a bank holiday......

might be a good idea, do you have to pay to get in or anything? I was only thinking bluewater because of the locality to both kent, essex, and south london, but I suppose canterbury isn't too far off...

What does everyone else think? I must say this is the first I've ever heard of Lydden Hill!

Be a better idea if it was free/cheap and if a lot more people are in agreement...

if you havent heard of lydden hill heres the website http://www.lyddenracecircuit.co.uk/home.htm

i cant see entry being free, it was about £10 last time i went, but was definately worth it, they have some excellent rallycross events there.

dont wana sound like a salesman, but it is a great day. £10 for 40 odd races and the added bonus this year its celebrating 20yrs of rallycross at the venue
