Shere Hill Climb - Sun 4h Sept 2016

The 4th Shere Hill climb (a few miles east of Guildford) is scheduled to take place on Sunday 4th Sept 2016 (day after the Brighton Speed Trials)
http://www.sherehillclimb.co.uk/
From their website as of 2016-02-23
Entries open on 25th February and close on 1st May. The entry list will be announced on 2nd May. The entry list is always over subscribed. The entry form will be on this web site when entries open. The entry fee is still only £ 65. Each entrant will have a minimum of three runs of the hill during the day.
The event takes place up Staple Lane, in the beautiful Surrey Hills near Guildford. The lane is a public road which, will be closed to all other traffic for the day. There are panoramic views across the Surrey countryside, on a clear day London and the Wembley Arch can be seen in the distance. The course runs from close to the junction of Staple Lane with the A246 to the summit of the hill with the paddock located at the base of the hill.
The road ascends by 300 feet over a distance of nearly a mile with a series of challenging corners along the route. Straw bale chicanes are added to the course at various points to increase the difficulty.
There will be 135 cars running, representing an amazing cross section of motoring history from the early days of the car right up to a few modern exotics. Each car will complete three runs starting at 9.30am and finishing at around 5.00pm.
Spectators are welcome. Entry to the hill climb car park will only be from the A246 end of Staple Lane (GU4 7RL). There will be no access from the Shere end of Staple Lane.

Great to see more & more events taking place, especially something like this where the local council have been persuaded to close a road for the day. Only problem with this one is the limited spectator view, though I understand the hedges along the roadside might be trimmed back for that reason.
Archie & I were at the first one so hopefully I'll make it back this year.
