RSOC National Day

With the challenges of COVID, our 40th Anniversary event had to be curtailed, so we will make 2021 our biggest and best NationalDay ever. To keep ticketing simple, all members advance* tickets are HALF PRICE until the 1st August 2021, plus, your tickets are fully refundable should we be unable to admit the public to the circuit for the event due to COVID.

Hosted at Donington Park Circuit, East Midlands, on Sunday 29th August 2021. The event for all the family will include a Live Action Arena with BMX and Trials bikes performing stunts and alongside a Free-runner. A live music stage will entertain throughout the day, we have Dodgems to keep the bigger kids entertained whilst the little ones have their own RS Focus cars to test drive and even the chance of winning one to take home on the day.

Track Time is now open with demand for space expected to be high, last year saw drivers using the day to hone their skills ready for competitive action, yet our dedicated Novice and Intermediate Groupings mean even those with no track experience can enjoy a fabulous day pushing their car round an Internationally renowned venue. Please note, noise limit is set by Donington at 98db.

We will also have our Local Group displays and both our own RS Concours and Non-RS Concours competitions, the standard of which is among the highest in the UK, they are a sight to behold..

Our Anniversary display stands will also have the opportunity to Parade their Cars around the race circuit, this fantastic opportunity is only available for those on our anniversary display stands which this year will be.

• 45th Anniversary of the Mk2 Escort RS2000
• 35th Anniversary of the Mk4 Escort RS Turbo (series 2)
• 35th Anniversary of the Sierra RS Cosworth
• 30th Anniversary of the Escort Mk5 RS2000
• 5th Anniversary of the Mk3 Focus RS

If you are on track, or booking a trade stand, then package deals are listed in the relevant sections below. Anyone else wishing to attend will need to purchase admission for all persons 16 or over, plus, if you wish to bring your car into the venue, parking for your vehicle, wherever you wish to park it, or have it on show. * Please note, only persons over the age of 16 are permitted in vehicles on the parade laps and in the Pit Lane, including the Pit Garages.

Bring your RS and receive a £10 voucher - we want to see your RS car at the show, so as an incentive to bring your RS car to the show, each RS car booked in to the infield parking and turns up, will receive a £10 voucher to spend on the day - you can still park outside if you so wished.

As a Motorsport venue, animals are not permitted into the show, or car parks with the exception registered assistance animals.

That's about it for the moment until we have some more confirmations in but rest assured, the team of volunteers who make this day work are burning a lot of midnight oil currently.

COVID-19 has caused major disruption around the world and, like you, we are looking forward to being able to get out in our RS cars and show them one and all.

National Day celebrates all aspects of the Ford RS marque and this year is our 40th Anniversary, we promised an event to remember with a show featuring activities and attractions for all the family to enjoy.

So it is with a heavy heart that we are having to make the decision to postpone the event until 2021.

Your Health, Safety and well being are of paramount importance to us and with a vaccine a long way off we could not put on a show where the potential to infect others is significant.

We hope you will join us next year and your advance tickets will be valid for our event next year, where we will still celebrate our anniversary and still bring you the amazing fun packed show you were looking forward to this year. If you do however wish a refund we would be happy to provide this too you, please contact us to arrange this. nd2020refunds@rsownersclub.co.uk

Thank you for your patience and understanding
