Specialist Cars of Malton meet - 14th Oct, North Yorks, - Invite for a drive-out

Post by snotrag »

Hi Guys -
Not exactly a prolific poster on this forum, but as a new MR2 driver I thought I'd share.

It is that time of year again, the last big run out of the year, the Yorkshire Big Breakfast at Specialist Cars of Malton.

Sunday October 14th 2012 will see thousands of drivers meet at Malton from 8.30am for a bacon sandwich and a chance to look at some of the finest metal in the North of England.

Now in its 5th year the Yorkshire Big Breakfast has grown to become one of the North's premier multi-marque car events with every kind of sports and classic car in attendance. We've had over 2000 people attend the last events and this promises to be even bigger.

As always everyone is welcome, no matter what you drive (or ride, motorbikes are of course welcome), please pass this invite on to your car clubs, owners clubs, friends and colleagues, it is the mix of makes and models that makes this event so exciting.

Working with North Yorkshire Police to ensure another safe and enjoyable meet we will have a one-way traffic system in place to keep things flowing, please follow the guidance of our marshals. As the event has grown we are also working to provide improved catering and toilet facilities.



This event is always very well attended - I've been to everyone since the beginning, a cracking mix of sports cars, kits, supercars, classics, all sorts.

There a charity breakfast put on, chance to nose round their workshops, paint shop, showroom etc, and stacks of cars all over the estate to wander about.

On a few occasions I've attended and planned my own run-outs before-hand with friends from PH and also from MX5-nutz.

I don't recall seeing many MR-2s in previous years, so it would be good to get a little group together and be great to meet up.

The run out will depend on numbers etc, but its safe to say I've done it before and I can promise some cracking fun, entertaining roads into the North York Moors and good scenery - meet point will likely be somewhere between Leeds and York, its well worth a trip from further afield though.

The run-out will be a early - a proper drive - Meeting at 6am ish, for a good 3 hour drive, 100+ miles, in order to get to Malton ready for the breakfast. This gives us some great dawn driving, plenty of time at Malton, and gives those of us with families etc chance to get back for Sunday dinner and keep the wife happy!

All welcome, be good to meet up - will send out PM's etc if anyones interested.
