Judging was a bit difficult with so many people and cars but here are the results

Hopefully Darren will put up the award pictures

Did you see BIG WEJ ?
I realise that the judges decision is final and won't dispute it.

Hard luck award ought to go to him as he completed only 79 of the 80 mile round trip on the road with 4 working wheels.; final mile for this (then tricycle) was on a trailer.rolleyes

Who/what was BIG WEJ
There was a filthy Impreza but that was a track slag so it looked ok. The Tazio had been half washed and had huge sponge marks on it, look a right old mess wink Sounded and went well though.

Hopefully Darren will put up the award pictures

This was my first of hopefully many, PH Runs.

Both me and my friend Isaac had a fantastic day. Saw some great cars and met some great people. Was nice to stretch my new car's legs on some great (well picked) twisty B roads. Really looking forward to the next run. Everyone was friendly and the sun was shining. What could be better!?

Many, many thanks to Mark for organising this and to Darren for (almost) successfully leading me from Thetford and Stowmarket. Hope to see everyone soon.

BIG WEJ was the TVR 390SE (B16 WEJ with correct spacing etc). Yes the car that got dirtiest car was probably the most deserving as the owner had humourously washed some of it and left giant sponge marks. WEJ just plain hadn't been washed. At least I took the trouble to scrape some of the muck off my Caterham.
Arf arf

PS
Smashing run out. Great cars. Loved every minute. Well done to you organising chappies.clap

Seems like it was a great day out - you guys had wonderful weather and there were some great cars out and about that day.

Many thanks to the two chaps in the orange KTM and dark grey/black? Exige for driving so thoughtfully - you came along to Thorpeness, turned around and came past us on your way back to Aldeburgh. We were walking along to Aldeburgh on the coast road with the little ones on bikes and you waited for other cars to clear and went very gently past us before giving it some welly once you had cleared the village - put a smile on all our faces!

We have the Maser Gran Tourismo and the two large Nissan trucks (the IS-F boot wasn't big enough frown ) with us whilst we stay in Thorpeness, but due to the very, very excessive alcohol intake on Saturday night we couldn't come and join you guys. Instead we walked along to Aldeburgh, had a peek at all the cars then went on to the Cross Keys for a few hairs of the dog!

Top marks to the organisers, looked like a great day thumbup.

I will pass your comments onto Greg driving the KTM X Bow and Adrian in the silver Komo-Tec Exige.

We also went to the Cross Keys for lunch.

As I've said earlier I was completely overwhelmed with Mark's prize but your unlikely to see me wearing them as given the market value of gold I've wrapped them up for the missus for Christmas.

So when's the next one?
