Hi folks
Some of you will remember this event from previous years but for those who have never been it is a fantastic fun - filled Lotus weekend!
Saturday July 16th - The Warm Up pub meet at The Devonshire Arms, Beeley, nr Bakewell
Sunday July 17th - The main event including early morning runs on great Derbyshire Peak District roads, 100+ Lotus procession in to Chatsworth Estate, display parking in front of Chatsworth House, catered summer picnic buffet, Car of the Day vote, a super Lotus raffle and more besides.
We had 180 cars last year, this year, if it stays fine, we should exceed 200.
We would be very pleased to welcome as many NYLOCers as possible. Why not find a nice hot flight or B&B and make a weekend of it?
Participation in the runs (the best bit) and the catered picnic are available by advance purchase only via the online store - see midlandslotus.co.uk for details.
Thank you
Dean

104 pre paid on this event to date so we are on course to beat last year's attendance record!
Central Lotus are our event sponsor this year and will be bringing an Exige v6 and an Evora 400 on the runs as well as a new Elise (250 probably) and their Evora race car.
Paul Shipley of PJS Classic and Race Cars ( Burton on Trent ) has kindly agreed to provide the trophies for the Car of The Day competition and will be bringing his full - house Elan 26R which we are very excited about.
The SouthWest Wales Lotus Club are bringing 8 cars too.
All in all it's shaping up nicely!
If you fancy joining in the fun please book vis the online store at midlandslotus.co.uk.
See you there!
