World record attempt? anyone seen the info

Hello

A few month ago I spotted details of a World record attempt and landrover show / stalls etc for next year.

It sounded great and was going to sign up. Camping etc available.

Now maybe like some of you I'm on a few groups on different platforms.

The organiser has more recently been doing NC500 'trips' and is also Connected with the MX5 community doing the same NC500 camping trips.

As it turns out around 6 years ago the organiser was in some trouble, Its now all over the facebook groups etc and the reading isn't great. Even though the organiser replied to some fears people now have on this event?

I've since just read some MX5 posts that the NC500 trips are not looking too promising and people have already paid

So has anyone already booked on this even or thinking of? I appreciate we may all have stuff in our past and everyone worth a second chance. However multiple people on different car groups cannot all be wrong? I'm not naming names but its not hard to find the info.

I was looking forward to be part of the attempt... Now I'm just waiting to see what pans out.

Assuming we're talking about the same thing - the 75th Anniversary Gathering - it's been discussed here:

Was there not an issue last year with this event and the money being asked for to join in? Pangea Green D250 90 HSE with Air Suspension, Off-road Pack, Towing Pack, Black Contrast roof , rear recovery eyes, Front bash plate, Classic flaps all round, extended wheel arch kit and a few bits from PowerfulUK Expel Clear Gloss PPF to come
2020 D240 1st Edition in Pangea Green with Acorn interior. Now gone - old faithful, no mechanical issues whatsoever ever but the leaks and rattles all over the place won’t be missed!
