Oakham

10:00

Calling all Renault 10 owners - This year will be the 60th anniversary of the launch of the Renault 1100/Renault 10 and to mark this milestone I'm arranging a gathering of as many Renault 1100 and 10s as possible at the Classic Wheels event in Oakham on Sunday 18th May 2025. More than 1000 classic vehicles were on display in 2024 alongside Autojumble stands, Food & Craft stalls, Live music, Children’s Entertainment and Club displays. The show is open from 10am – 4pm. Further details can be found at the following… https://classicwheelsrutland.co.uk/ All variants of the Renault 1100 and 10 are welcome to line up together in the club display area. Of course, all Renaults are welcome and will be accommodated in the display area if there is space, or elsewhere at the show. The cost is only £5 per vehicle and includes entry for the driver. The aim is to display all things Renault 1100 and 10, including model cars, brochures, books and articles. It is also hoped that parts will be available from an autojumble stall. So, if you would like to bring your Renault 1100 or 10 and any other related items, please contact me at dexter.skiddaw@gmail.com to register your interest and car details and arrangements will be confirmed nearer the time. For a bit of fun I've also created a website to share photos and information on the Renault 1100 and 10 – have a look at https://renault10enthusiast.weebly.com/

Biscester Heritage

9:30 to 16:00

This exciting event sees traditional hot rods and customs taking to Bicester Heritage's Experience and Demonstration Track, which at just under 1km in length, has six technical turns and a long straight to test cars to the full. The track is increasingly becoming known as an iconic testing and filming location, so it's the perfect place for the VHRA to host such an exhilarating event. Whilst track time at Throttle is exclusively for members of the VHRA and their VHRA eligible vehicles, spectating is open to all, including access to the pits. We encourage you to come along in your own historic vehicles; hot rods, customs, Yanks, motorbikes, classics and vintage, they're all welcome to attend Throttle. Numbers on all tickets are limited, it is strictly pre-entry, and there will be no tickets available on the gate, so book early to avoid disappointment. Gates open at 9.30am to the public, then at 10am the first of the hot rods will take to the track. From there, we'll be running all day through to 4pm, with just a short stop for lunch. There will be hot food and drink available on site throughout the day.

Pump Room Gardens, Royal Leamington Spa

10:00

If you are the owner of a classic car, we invite you join us with your vehicle for another amazing day out in the Pump Room Gardens in heart of Leamington Spa. Book your place NOW using the button above! Last year, our 6th event, we had an amazing number and variety of classics attend (see the gallery pages) and a big increase in the attendance of the visiting public. All the food and drink stalls sold out of everything before the end! People came to enjoy one of the town’s lovely parks, to listen to the entertainment, picnic on the grass sheltered by leafy trees, buy a snack and a drink and of course to admire the vehicles. The show has become a regular town event as well as a charity money raiser, and we made a record surplus last year of £5,100. People’s generosity can be amazing at times. We hope 2025 will be even bigger and better! Please join us and help us to create a wonderful day out for everyone!

9am to 2pm

Now firmly established as a permanent fixture in the VHRA calendar, the VHRA Swap Meet will once again be at the 1940s Camp in Ramsey, Cambridgeshire. It’s a wartime army base that is under restoration, which serves as an excellent backdrop to the automobilia and Americana on sale and display at the event. Trading and attending is open to members and non-members alike. All we ask is, if you are selling goods, they relate to traditional hot rods and customs, early Fords, vintage Americana or the lifestyle that goes along with it. If you’re trading from a pre-63 vehicle we’ll knock something off the price of the pitch. There’s no pre-entry, simply pay on the gate on the day, either as a trader or a shopper. As well as the Swap Meet, there will be a show area for historic vehicles of all kinds. For those that want to arrive early, we’ll be throwing open the doors of the Drill Hall and the NAAFI on Saturday. Camping is available for an overnight stay and included in your pitch fee, which is convenient for an early start on Sunday. On Saturday night we’ll be playing some music, the bar will be open and food will be available. The NAAFI will be open on Sunday from breakfast onwards. Whilst the VHRA are the host club, the event is in association with the Ford Model A and the Early Ford V8 Clubs. We thank them for their support.

Fund raising for mens mental health. Following the huge success of the 2024 event, this July, The Hellfire MVC will again play host to The Big Meet, a celebratory display of hundreds of interesting vehicles from far and wide. It’s a day of scenery and machinery, with a licensed café, food, drinks and for the more active, walks and visits to the nearby Hellfire Caves. For anyone that came in 2024 you’ll notice we have upped the coffee and food available in the paddock. What hasn’t changed is our aim to not only raise funds to help tackle mental health, but as a club, to continue to create regular opportunities for people to socialise and participate - those who would otherwise feel left out and on their own. As we say we’re about the people not just the vehicles.

Once again there will be two days of non-stop racing action on the historic beach in Carmarthenshire, South Wales. We will be starting around 10am each day and racing for around five to six hours, with high speed thrills from start to finish. Everything is determined by the tide so times can’t be set in stone. This incredible, award winning event has fast become the most important date on the UK hot rod calendar, with participants coming from all over the globe to take part in the world’s fastest and most exciting beach racing competition available to traditional hot rods and customs. Racing is only open to members of the Vintage Hot Rod Association and their pre-1949 hot rods and customs, so it’s guaranteed old time action all the way. There are classes for all types of vehicles and engines, with cars being built just to break class records. All vehicles run on a course with a 1/2 mile run up, followed by a time flying 1/16th of a mile, which is where these antique hot rods can hit speeds in excess of 130 mph. Entry to the pits is for racers and their teams only, but you can spectate for free from outside.
