Prescott Hill Climb Open Classic Car Event

Cheltenham Cleeve Vale Rotary Club invites classic car owners to an event to be held on the weekend of 12th and 13th May 2007. 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 13th will be devoted 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 entry fee will be £30 per car and parking will be in the Paddock. Entries are limited to ensure all get at least 2 hill runs.

As in 2006 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 to we will also be repeating the gentle cavalcade/parade 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 static entry fee is £15 which includes the cavalcade/parade.

On Saturday we are offering either a 35 or 60 mile Cotswold tour starting and finishing at Prescott, and in addition there will be a 3 course dinner/buffet at Prescott Lodge. Both events will be subject to a minimum participation number and are open to all entrants.

Block bookings by Clubs will be particularly welcome and we will endeavour to park such groups together on Sunday. Spectators will be welcome at £10 per car with free car parking and pedestrian access to the Paddock etc.

All profits will go to Charities supported by Rotary. In order to maximise this, we are asking for your cooperation to treat the entry fee as a donation 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 attached,
