The entry for this event was full I appealed under the rare vehicle route, I received the following email which gave me an entry.
"Dear Geoff,
Sorry you needed to prompt me but I had been away.
We discussed your application at our last meeting and decided that if more cyclekarts were road legal a small group might be an attractive addition to our 2000 event.
This being so we thought that accepting your application this year would enable us to see the car in action so we could assess its suitability. Could you email me your registration number and I will send out an invitation.
Obviously, this strategy depends on cyclekarts going through the DVLA approval process. Perhaps if you think Kop is right for a few cyclekarts and we want to pursue it some publicity at the cyclekart end would help. Could we discuss at the event.
Regards
Bob Woodman
ps. Can my colleagues seek out Geoff's car to take a look . I will send it up the hill just after a real "Wolseley Hornet". For those that do not know cyclekarts are 0.7 scaled versions of vintage cars based on a gokart."
(End of email)
Geoff continued:
Although not road legal I feel cyclekarts would be an asset in the paddock area next year, either a static display or a small demonstration circuit. This is a prestigious event and would be great publicity for us, but the committee needs to be convinced, your support on the day would be very much appreciated.
Cheers, Geoff
