I've been to Beaulieu many times. Great place
I might be able to make this one, despite the distance (~250 miles away).
My OH (Lyn) is originally from Southampton, so we drive down to visit her relatives a few times a year. I just need to persuade her that one of our visits needs to coincide with this event.
We were at the filming of one of the Scrapheap Challenge episodes (S09E14 - Sofa Speedway) at Beaulieu about 10 years ago. It was a great day out. Even met Robert Llewellyn (and got his autograph). Very nice bloke.
Here's the episode. You can just about spot Lyn and myself around 13 minutes in, behind the pool table, as it hurtles around the track:
