Muddy Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 Hi Derek/Steve, My names down (Not going to JAE) and will be turning up on the Saturday morning around 08:30ish. Couple of questions: How is the approach to the location? Are there any speed bumps, sharp inclines? Derek you've seen how low the car is, it struggles on anything that is not level Also are the cars parked up in any order, club order? Will I be guided to the correct parking location? And to everyone else...Who will be there on Saturday?? So I have someone to talk to and bore Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arkwright Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 there are a couple of speed bumps and the drive has ruts. In my opinion these are not bad. We have been going there for the last 3 years and to my knowledge no-one has had a problem but it would not be fair of me to intimate that it is of a good road standard. I went down there last Sunday and they had had a load of road scalpings delivered and were expecting a jcb this week to grade out the speed bumps. (the bumps are the type which you drive on to and are about 3 car lengths long and have a 'gentle approach'. The grass is flat, similar to Thoresby so you shouldn't have a problem. You pick your own spot to camp/park up. Location: turn off the B6386 (hope I got the road number right) towards Calverton and the entrance is on your left about 100 yds from the junction. Two white concrete bollards at the entrance and a bloody great sign saying Zed Fest. If no-one else is awake talk to the catering bloke who can chew the hind leg off a donkey!

martinmac Posted September 9, 2009 Author Share Posted September 9, 2009 I have 9 cms clearance and can manage the road with no problems. Just ignore the road and drive on the grass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
