I enjoyed it too.
My first SS and I got straight in and directed to park by the very friendly guys.

Just want to thank the chap with the aero 8 for giving it full beans off the roundabout as he overtook me in the DC2.

Sounded amazing and rattled the windows on my car as it blasted past biggrin

Hope this doesn't mean you'll be send me a glazing bill. wink
Hooligan! I see how you got your name now.

Perhaps not, although he did ask me why you'd got a girls name as the reg plate on your car once you've driven off, so he's perceptive.

Perhaps not, although he did ask me why you'd got a girls name as the reg plate on yourcar solely for driving to PH events once you've driven off, so he's perceptive.

Well I think it was brilliant. A bit "quieter" than other SSs, simply because everything was spread over such a huge area! Amazing on Porsche's behalf though.

I had only one teeny thought - that it would have been better to separate the coffee supply from the bacon supply. I wanted another coffee a bit later on but I wasn't going to queue up with everyone that hadn't eaten yet wink

Photos are done and going on the thread...

Depends. How do you compare, DNA wise, with a crab?

Thanks for the fantastic morning, as all have said before: a triumph of organisation and petrol-head spirit.

Highlights for me:

Halfords Lambo,
Superleggererererer (sp?) lambo
Original mini (although 'original' is hardly the correct word!)
Cobra
Stingray
e30 M3's

Didn't really get a chance to meet anyone as after we had a quick whip round and a blat in the panamera (the black one on its final outing before the tyres gave up completely) we had to head off. Gutted to see the GT3 having a hoon in the rear view mirror on my way out :-(

Thanks all, will see you next time and try to be a little more sociable.

CW7 inadverently taught my lad a couple of new hand signals as he went through the gate...
Only because his Father "inadvertently" commented that I was better looking in my pictures than in the flesh (so to speak).

Although I must admit, being called a "legend" by at least two of the PH Hi-Viz contingent did somewhat make my day.

Dammit. I thought that was you wandering around but wasn't 100% sure. Lucky escape.
