STCC 2010 Round 5
4th July
At SHMCC Bashley

SHMCC extends a warm welcome to all STCC round 5 drivers, we look forward to a weekend of close competition

Directions to track.

We are located in Hampshire on the edge of the New Forest National Park, the nearest town being New Milton. The track situated behind the Danestream farm shop on the B3055 Sway road, post code for satnav is BH25 5QU.

Local facilities

The Danestream farm shop sells a variety of fresh & chilled produce as well as operating a sandwich counter with hot & cold filled rolls, pies, pasties etc.. The shop is open until 5pm on Saturday and from 9:30 to 1pm Sunday.
We also have The Plough Inn situated a few hundred meters along from the Farm Shop, which apart from the obvious beer! Also serves hot & cold food. Please note we would recommend driving to the Pub as the road is a little dangerous to walk along as there is no foot path.
If you fancy a take-away, then New Milton is the place to go, with several Chip Shops, Indian & Chinese restaurants as well as burger/kebab take-aways. Use BH25 6LW (Station road) or BH25 6DN (Old Milton road) for your satnav.. We should also mention there is a Tesco Express located in Old Milton road..
If you need petrol or a bigger shopping experience, the large Tesco store located on the outskirts of New Milton is the closest place BH25 5PX is the post code to use.

Camping

We have basic camping facilities available in the field adjacent to the track with drinking water and chemical loo disposal. Cost will be £10 per pitch for Saturday night, camping permits can be purchased from Race Control during Saturday and must be displayed clearly, please note there is no Friday night camping facility.
Also we must insist that all cooking equipment / BBQ’s are supported above the grass to avoid burn marks and fire risk and that all rubbish is removed and take home on Sunday.
The closest Premier Inn is in Somerford, Christchurch BH23 3QG, however there are several guest houses, B&B’s and small private hotels around New Milton & Barton on Sea areas.

Track Opening times are as follows

Saturday open practice 11am – 6pm
Sunday open practice until drivers briefing at 8:45am

Hi Pete,

However we have some temp fencing to errect and other site prep work, hence the track open time of 11am..
