Thanks to all that made it - I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.

Ian - sorry to miss you in the afternoon. Thanks to Rob and Emma for the drives - forced induction really is fun.

27 attendees in the end - here are the ones that were still there when I got back:



All types of vehicle were welcome - as long as they were supercharged or twin-turbo, with at least 600bhp.

a big THANK YOU to the organisers for yet another great Shaftesbury day !! I think we really should have this venue more often since the staff are so nice and accommodating.

Also thank you to my co-drivers for the lovely drives and thanks for putting up with me and my (at times) rusty driving. It was good to blow some of the cobweb off my driving since I spent too much time in the office for too many months. MR2 even did 23 mpg so obviously I was not trying hard enough biggrin

Lastly, I think I am a little sunburnt now that I spent most of the day in convertibles redfaceops: Used A30 all the way back to London with the roof off was a blast. Much better than A303 for proper overtaking practices.

Thanks everyone and hope to see most of you at the Brecon Day.
