Fantastic afternoon. Some serious metal seen today!

Loved the lotus section.

Amazed at the amount on yank tanks there.

The gt40s made my day. Plus the merc sls up by the castle was awesome.

We dropped by for a look and it was an awesome display, loved seeing the smiles on the kids going for rides, a day they will always remember. My thanks to the owner of the red Lotus Elise who let me sit me in it to feel how low it was, getting in was a challenge I think my legs are too long. Great day, great venue. Oh, and the Zombie Hummer was fun !

Thank you to every driver, helper, marshal, cadet, volunteer, pilot, et all for making this event happen BUT most of all thank you to the public who turned up and donated for the Sporting Bears Dream Rides and went out in our cars raising £4,200 clap


After all packed up on the Dream Rides we took the Bentleys across to the Sea King and wow, the Leeds Castle balloon flew over too, bonus shot!!!!

I assume the offline fundraising was the sporting bears £4,200.00 so overall total £7,867.50.

Cotty - your car will be in this one then.


The final panorama picture from me.

In this one there are 10 Sporting Bears logos hidden - can you find them all ?

Of course - fully zoom in-able..

A cracking day out.
And special kudos to the volunteer Atom and X-Bow drivers doing the drives. Bet they slept when they got home.

never knew we were offline, but yes that makes sense, £4,200 is cash and card donations for rides, I leave our treasurer to work out Gift Aid, etc. Wow, what an event, great support form clubs and individuals, weather stayed dry, amazing setting too, just brilliant.
