No, Breakfast clubs are static events.  I do not know how well you know the circuit, but the events run as follow.

Each event has a theme so as you drive up to the entrance to the race circuit and if you fit the bill for the theme you will be asked to park in the car park on the left or on the circuit.  If you do not you are sent under the circuit to the car park in the middle.  You then spend a couple of hours wandering around looking at all the cars.  There are resturants and burger bars on site.

It's a great day out.  It is best to meet up with others and arrive in convoy lots of fun. Dorset may be a bit far for a breakfast meet early start for you!

At present I'm free for this date if an outing of Atoms is planned.  Even if it's Guildford at 07.30 as per this coming Sunday (is it light by then?)

It's certainly light in Wales by 7:30 so, as you're East of me, it'll be lighter earlier :)

Same day as silverstone.  I'm gutted.  I'll be arriving at Towcester at about 7:30, so won't be able to join you.  Have fun  :tu:

So where is this event at? I google map'd it as here:

http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&tab=wl

Is this correct? And where would everyone be meeting? I'm visiting the UK and I'll be there the 6th, it would be kind of cool to go to a breakfast like this. Is there anyone driving by Newhaven that could pick me up? And maybe two friends haha. We'd need three Atoms then! If not, I'll possibly try and take a coach!

Thanks,

Vendian

The link for me just shows a map of the USA.  I think it will be hard to get a coach.  Your best bet is to hire a car.

Or you can get a train to Goodwood then catch a bus / taxi it is not far from the station.  Not sure if the station was Goodwood but was nearby, used it to go horse racing once.  They did have a bus that day but I think it was because a big event was on.
