For the last few years this region has attended this event and we will be going there again in 2009.
You will see below a letter received from the organisers. I will put more on this forum soon and will also give details in the Regions report in Porsche Post March issue (February has already gone to bed).

PRESCOTT HILL CLIMB OPEN CLASSIC CAR EVENT[/b]
May 9/10 2009[/b]
Sponsored by Sebring International , The Classic Auction Company and Autoglym
Cheltenham Cleeve Vale Rotary Club invites classic car owners to an event to be held on the weekend of 9th and 10th May 2009. The event is open to all pre-1980 vehicles but exceptions may be made at the discretion of the organisers for particularly interesting vehicles.
Sunday 10th will be devoted [/i]to display and driving the famous hill, with passengers if you wish, in marshalled but un-timed runs. Un-timed runs eliminate the need for crash helmets and the full gamut of safety equipment etc. However vehicles must have valid road tax, MOT and insurance documentation. The Paddock entry fee is £46 per car [inclusive of 2 runs up the hill all passengers and a souvenir programme]. Entries are limited to 200. Additional runs if available will be £5 each.
As before we will also be having a static display in a designated area of the Orchard for classic, vintage and special vehicles. For those who wish we will also be repeating the gentle cavalcades up the hill so that vehicles can be displayed in motion to the attending public. We feel this significantly enhances the presentation of the superb range of vehicles expected. The Orchard [static] entry fee is £18 per car which includes all passengers , a free programme and at least one cavalcade drive up the hill.
Block bookings by Clubs will be particularly welcome and we will endeavour to park such groups together.
On Saturday we are offering a 60 mile Cotswold tour starting and finishing at Prescott, where at the end there will be a cuppa and homemade cake.
Spectators will be welcome on the Sunday at £15 per car with free car parking, souvenir programme and pedestrian access to the Paddock etc.
All profits will go to Charities supported by Rotary and in order to maximise this, we are asking for your cooperation to treat the entry fees as donations to charity under gift aid so that we can reclaim tax.
Following the success of previous events we suggest that to avoid disappointment, early booking is made on the entry form
