Havent seen anything about this here or on the SA website this year?

Not looking good I guess

If it's not happening, its a dammn shame, such a great opportunity to do something for a good cause and get a ride in a variety of hot metal at the same time

Cheers Deano - are you on the list mate?

I looked on the SA's own "vents" page - they have events way beyond this, very odd they havent detailed it yet

Time to start saving!

£5 per adult to get in. All goes to the charity!

Then passenger rides start from about £20 for 5 laps.

Bring plenty of money. There will be lots of cars you'll want to go out in.

Fingers crossed the weather will be a but better this year.

CC website states £30 as the minimum price

I know last year (and the year before) it seemed like a lot of cars were running around empty

Appreciate its for charity, but I think it would be better if they lowered the prices slightly and had the cars occupied on a more regular basis

£30 can be a lot of money for some, particularly in the current climate

Yeah, I saw that on the site, but I'm sure last year they had some minis and a few metro turbos that were going around for £20-25 a time.

I think it just depends on the day.

I'd happily take people out in my car for £5. Lack of cage and any sort of safety devices might be a problem tho.

It would represent great value for money aswell, it would take me about 10 mins to do 5 laps. Haha
