Yup, I have just conviced the better half to go - it's near my parents so we can visit them after too.

Looking forward to watching the Westie guys build their 25th anniversary XI and I'm hoping to get a drive in the Chevron.

A couple of years ago the outside competitions were amazing, so I hope there's more of the same this year

Google up for Race retro show, its at the Stoneleigh showground this weekend. Loads of stuff to see and watch, like Group B Rally cars doing demonstration runs, static race bikes,cars of all discriptions, lots of well known (in race circles)faces and the list go'es on.
I've been lucky enough to win two entrance tickets

I want to go but unlikely to find it if I try to go on my own!! Went last year and it was brilliant! Loads of stuff to look at, buy, drivers to talk to. Didn't get round all the halls.

Deceptively easy to do - it looks really easy - until you're quite close, then it can all go the geometry of the pair. Luckily a little local knowledge helps, but I'm pretty sure the SatNav will have to guide me in the last mile or so
