Do you have to be a club member (I know, I know…) to attend the event? I’m fairly new to the MX5 family and want to find out more about the Club etc before joining. The rally would be a good way of making my mind up.
No, and if you like it, you can join on the day. I’m not sure non-members get to park in the same place though.
I am not sure that the being a member benefits you as far as parking is concerned. At the Spring Rally the Tyne Tees group, who were there early, were directed as far away as was possible from the static stands etc.
Hi Nigelr, no its not an exclusive “members only” event everyone’s welcome,
come along and see some fantastic cars, meet lots of people who share a passion for the MX-5 and remember to bring some spare cash to spend on goodies in the traders section, [:D]
Thanks for the replies, I certianly will join up, the club seems very friendly and the event programme looks great! See you all there 
greetings Nigel. it will be a good day. have fun looking around & chatting to members…[:D]
