Founder Steve Bishop is looking forward to spending his weekend in Cumbria, and is thankful for the excellent forecast.
He said: "Hutton in the Forest is a beautiful venue. We have over 250 classic and performance cars already pre-booked. There is a local fire and rescue service that is coming in as well. We've got car clubs driving up from the midlands, from the local area and coming down from Scotland, so we will have a complete mix, from minis to jaguars and everything in between."

Steve is expecting over 2000 visitors on Sunday for what promises to be a fascinating day, with awards for best in show.
He added: "We're an expanding business really, it's all about bringing together people who enjoy cars and bikes, who can come out and have a lovely day. I am really looking forward to it. There has been a lot of rain recently but it's great to finally feel some warmth and this venue is usually a really popular site and popular day out.
"I do this because I enjoy seeing a mixture of people enjoying their day out. People are really passionate about cars and bikes. Their projects and pride of joys. It's great to chat with them, and they come back year on year. So I'm really looking forward to another successful weekend."
