The convoy starts at the show, it involves all of the cars invited to participate in the drivers parade.
As you enter the school cars are allowed into the show area's and those that are due to take part in the parade have to register they are then parked in the access road that arc's around to the right, the first car park, (school playground) is then mostly for the featured mark cars (Corvette this year) and the other interesting cars are sent to the other hard parking area's(tennis courts etc).
Later on friday afternoon all the cars that are taking part in the parade leave in an escourted convey back into the town for the drivers parade. However until they leave you can have a close inspection of them and usually chat to the owners who are often to be found cleaning and polishing their pride and joy ready for it's big day.
The parade cars usually arrive at st saturin later in the morning or early afternoon, however we usually arrive early friday and do the show in the morning have a spot of lunch there and then head back to the circuit for the pit visit.
