At 114 miles this is a 2.7-3.9 hrs drive in normal conditions. Event-day queues are the driver’s problem, not yours: the fare is fixed either way.

Event days at Fratton Park
For Portsmouth match days we plan around the venue, not the postcode: the drop-off point that is actually open, the corner we meet on afterwards, and a departure time that beats the car-park queue. An 8-seater takes the whole group from Canterbury for little more than two saloons, and a wait-and-return price keeps the same driver on site for the day. Late finishes are normal for us; the fare is the same at 1am.
