shows and events in south wales

[huwdm]

British Truck Racing, Welsh Sports and Saloons, Caterhams and 2CV racing at Pembrey this weekend. The Welsh Cars are racing on Sunday. Should be a good day. Trucks are extreme, Caterhams leave bits everywhere, local support for the Welsh and endurance 2CVs.

Here's one for the oldies and young fogies like myself - The Armstrong Siddeley Owners Club is holding its National Rally on the Common in Llandrindod Wells from 11am. It's part of their annual week long gathering so you may spot them out and about in mid-Wales next week... I think the Rolls Royce Enthusiast Club is involved on Sunday too.

vintage car rally at Tredegar house today
last one

Brilliant day out at Tredegar Park. One of the best ever IMHO. Can't believe that all of those people won't just turn up this time next year! Early.... very early..... speculation that the show would fit well at Celtic Manor.

I have some pics which I will post when I learn how.

I took the kids here for a few hours yesterday and had a good time. Lots to see and helped of course by the fantastic weather.

A special mention to king David tyres also. I think it is absolutely fantastic they were happy for kids to sit in the Ferrari and Lamborghini and rev the nuts off them!! That is how to get the next generation into cars!

+1 on all of the above points - its a genuine family day out with plenty to do and see. I was there the whole day and still didn't get round to see it all. Must take a hell of a lot to organise so can't blame the organisers for calling it a day - once every two years would be great though.

People were so friendly and interested in talking about cars, etc just a shame that some people could not show the same sort of courtesy when trying to leave - instead of "merging like a zip" so things letting things flow, people try to push in. Nevermind, still a fantastic day and it will be missed.

I echo all the above, we've camped there a few times (sometimes with a club and sometimes on our own) and always got on well with our neighbours. Getting out was a bit of a nightmare though.

I hope they bring it back, as said once every two years would be ok, there was always plenty to see and do there, it will be sorely missed.
