We had a great weekend, really enjoyed it even though yesterday was quite wet! Highlights for me had to be the RS200, Lada Rally car and the racing bikes. The noise on the start line was fantastic!

There was loads to see and do, loads of great people who were willing to talk about their machines and it was nice to meet a few more PHers!

If I can make it, I will definitely be going next year!

Cheers to Lawrence for organising everything for us.

Good event - though the Car Club parking needs more thought and access. Couldn't believe that we had a queue to get in at 08.15 on Saturday morning! Shame about the weather turning the fields boggy - but that's the UK for you, and especially tyhe NW!
The Gerry Marshall Baby Bertha Droop Snoot Firenza brought memories flooding back from my childhood! Fantastic awesome car then - also the V8 DAF! Those super saloons are mega!

I have to echo the comments so far, it was a really great day out.

My particular favourites were the Justin Law Lola and the Minshaw E30 M3 that both sounded demonic going round the circuit. The Lambo SV LP670-4 was stonkingly quick too.

It was great to see Barrie Williams knocking around in his race suit all day mixing with everyone.

P.S - Sorry I missed you Bob, my phone just plain decided not to work in the afternoon rolleyes

Thanks Lawrence for organising everything for us all. I unfortunately could not bring the Ultima on the Sunday due to the weather, but did make the saturday for you although got very muddy.

A great weekend for all and over a 1000 photos taken for the organisers and hopefully a snippit in Autosport as well this week.

I will be posting some photos when i get the chance but oviously priority is to get the photos back to the event organisers so they will use me again next year, however I will be posting some next week on my website for all to see
