Great event, it was my first ss and not my last. Lovely mix of cars, loved and were suprised to see a xj220.

Also did anyone get pics of the white abarth 500 (595 comp) with black stripes. Was parked mbw end next to silver rs4.
Gareth
Hi Gareth, that 'rs4' you mentioned was my RS6 in Avus Silver and I do remember having a chat with the Fiat Abarth 500 owner which had 165 bhp and only weighed 1050 kg. That's a decent power-to-weight ratio there for a small car like that.
Yup, the weather was kind after all and a really nice day out.
For a closing thought, it would be brilliant if for one of next year's SS we could use an airstrip for the day so that some of us could have a chance to unleash some of our horses. I would love a chance to legally reach that speed limiter if it indeed is there.
Cheers
Chris

This has to be my favourite SS location. Thanks again for organising a great day out! thumbup

I was hoping to have a peak at the E34 M5 that I passed on the way in but sadly it had gone by the time I went to have a look.
