Please keep an eye on this post as any amendments get posted
When? Sunday 16th August 2015
From? 10:30am onwards
Where? Deene Park
How much? £10 per Italian Car - giving admission to The Great Park plus the castle and gardens
We’re delighted to announce that the 15th edition of MITCAR will keep up the tradition by being held at another new venue. DEENE PARK is adjacent to the village of Deene about 4 miles to the north east of Corby, 12 miles south of Stamford. It is very easily found, clearly sign posted from the A43 Corby to Stamford road.
The design is similar to last year’s superb event at Rockingham Castle. We will have an extensive area of park land for the MITCAR display, with the delightful 16th Century house just a short walk away. Whilst many will want to picnic, the house features a smart tea rooms serving light lunches, tea and cakes. The beautiful gardens will be open from noon and the house will be open from 2pm to 5pm, with guides available to talk about the extensive displays.
MITCAR will open at 10.30am and stewards will be on hand to park the cars by marque. The entrance fee will again be a modest £10 per Italian Car confirming a commitment to give best possible value.
As always visitors in any Italian car will be welcome and we can expect both classics and modern.
There will again be a competition for ‘Car of the Day’ (The Camshaft Trophy and Cup) and this year this will again involve a popular vote. Other awards will be made in different categories with the usual element of surprise. The competitive element is always light-hearted at MITCAR and sometimes the unusual and off-beat is rewarded, which might not be the case in a conventional Concours. It all adds to the fun! Prize giving will be at 3pm and, as has become the custom, all those who filled in voting papers will be entered in a prize draw.
Many will want to picnic and there is also a tea-room. BBQs will be allowed and as normal, FF will be having a BBQ fest
Dogs are welcome but must be kept on leash.
