I will most likely go and camp if I can get my backside in gear and find the tent.

Pete, did you think of providing GTW with a hot water bottle too? Don't feel bad if it rains, as it is peeing down here since last night in my part of the world (Locarno)

The weather forecast I've just heard said it should be dry with bright intervals.

Met Office still says 80% chance of heavy rain from 10am onwards.

Well, I was there. Glad it turned out nice as I did think that we might have been taking a risk going in the F27.

I stupidly never even thought to check on here to see who would be there.

Spotted a few PH stickers though. Spoke to a few people, but as I'm usually lingering in the lounge, I don't think anyone would know me.

Was a cracking day though, sadly I now have the sunburn to show for it!

Sounds like I should have been there today. Met office still saying heavy rain tomorrow. Went to Goodwood today and got wet as well!

I also had a good day. Left surrey at 7.30am in steady rain, 5 minutes up the road it stopped and the weather was perfect for the rest of the day. Pity there were only 6 cars there (including the GTW and a factory demonstrator), but it was good to meet up with some of the "old stalwarts" again, even if they didn't come in their Ultimas!

Better than the Formula 27 owners club. We thought we were the only ones, but then after we had been for a walk, three more had parked up.

So who was the bloke I spoke to with the black ultima GTW? The one up for sale.

Hello, I think you spoke to Andy, from awtracksport. He's more knowledgable about the car, so did most of the talking.

Started raining at 11. GTR in the trailer at 11.15 frown

Dom turned up no one else though.....

Sorry Guy, sorry Mark. I heard that you'd arrived a bit later in the day, when I'd decided to shoot.

Here is the little GTW 'Stand':









Must say a thank you again to the Factory who forked out for our Ultima Park and for the bottle of bubbly for attending Ultimas!!! I feel loved!!! smile
