I'm going! Grey Nissan 350Z, might do some track time.

A mate of mine is taking, and tracking, a very modified 1956 Ford Pop.

Weather forecast is very good, looking forward to it!

Went last year as the car was part of one of the displays. Serious queues to get in. Leave plenty of time to get in and head to the right when you go to leave.

The main car park area down towards devils elbow all seems to try and exit through the left gate.

The cars from the paddock area, that use the access track at the top, use the middle and right gates and get out much quicker.

At least that was my experience at BHP last year and ERC a couple of weeks ago.

To be honest, I don't know.

It's possible, but I didn't go last year, my mate might have done.

It's white, and a bit ratty looking, but quick!

It wasn't then, the one on display was black and in immaculate condition

Might be worth pointing out that I'll be in the Blue Saxo with orange smiley on the boot and a white smiley on the sun roof

thumbup Thats her, minging isn't it. Only bought it last week and got it on the road on Friday, apart from a blowing exhaust it hasn't put a foot wrong all weekend.

I saw a blue chim going in there too, and this was the only sticker I saw all day.
