Many thanks to everyone who has supported the site by signing up to attend Trax.
As you will be aware, our intention was to combine the presence of Corsa Sport with our sister-club, Weekend Racer.
However as the majority of the cars which are showing belong to the WR ethos, we will be branding the stand exclusively Weekend Racer.
There will be no official showing for Corsa Sport at Trax for this year and for the foreseeable future after that.
Your stand pass will indicate that you are showing with Weekend Racer, and you will need to ask for directions to that stand, not Corsa Sport.
If anyone wishes to pull out as a result of this decision, this is completely fine and can be done by contacting willay. May I ask that this is done by by the 25th July. After this date we will not be in a position to refund straight away and will instead only do so when replacement people are sought.
It does sadden me deeply that we have to do this. CS used to have a strong attendance at this show but that is no longer the case. I would prefer to be clear now about the layout of the stand which we are organising before people turn up.

How many cars would you have been needing for a CS stand?
Bit disappointing considering the turn out for PVS tbh

I would say even 20 would be enough but it's difficult to get that. Used to do 50-60 but we're not close to those figures.

I can't speak for all other clubs but I think most are still doing OK.
Just CS seems to prefer Vauxhall shows.

I would never say never but we need to plan ahead, and a few cars rushed together at the end of the payment window isn't a particularly great way to run a stand.

I would've been around that way so it probably was.
Pow, which of your automotive collection will you be bringing?
