The atmosphere in the show grounds and camping areas are laid back, with people and families relaxing with their friends, new and old, whilst being entertained by the on track antics which are in stark contrast to the laid back surroundings.<\/p>\n<p><u><b>Club GTI\u2019s involvement 2014<\/b><\/u><\/p>\n<p>Following our very successful <b><a href=\"http:\/\/www.clubgti.com\/showthread.php?268820-Club-GTI-Trackday-tour-Bedford-Autodrome-GT-March-17th-with-35-booked%21%21\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bedford track day<\/a><\/b>, our next opportunity is to be part of the Apex Festival (10-11th May 2014 at Lydden Hill Race Circuit, Kent &#8211; see <a href=\"http:\/\/www.apexfestival.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.apexfestival.co.uk<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p>This is set to be an action packed weekender with a mix of Show n Shine, Circuit Racing, Retro Drifting, Sprinting, Demo Sessions, Track Day Sessions and of course our very own ClubGTi hosted Show n Go Challenge!<\/p>\n<p>There is loads more going on at the Apex Festival too check out their teaser video on:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" id=\"yui-gen2\" class=\"restrain\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/r9xnWahGnu4?wmode=opaque\" width=\"640\" height=\"390\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=r9xnWahGnu4&amp;feature=share&amp;list=PLaFqVjAl6NXL1hXOKQNtNEOl-Vi7KhCa0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=r9xnW&#8230;tNEOl-Vi7KhCa0<\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>ClubGTi Subsidised Entry to the Apex Festival:<\/b><br \/>\nWe have secured 50 subsidised entry tickets for people who book in advance through ClubGTi (On the day gate prices are non discounted) <b><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Please PM your interest and we can give you the Promo Code to book the discounted tickets with. <\/span><\/b><br \/>\n(<u><b>NB:<\/b><\/u> You must let us know you are booking so we can add your names to the ClubGTi guest list on the gate otherwise the discounted e-Tickets won&#8217;t be valid and you will have to pay the difference.
