He has taken loads of photos and other video footage though. He got some footage of your car on the M4 on the way back though!! We did notice a few cam corders aimed at the car as we drove by. Great day out thoroughly enjoyed it!!

Great day out - thanks to Paul and the team. Some very fine cars out there indeed.

Next time there is a big meet may be we should try a simultaneous start up......Bathurst starting grid stylee.. would make a most excellent ring tone..

Great sounding cars, nice people, dry weather not too much dodgy music and even the food seemed better than last year. Thanks toall who helped in the organising and the donation of prizes. Apologies that as an ex-owner I won the rolling road dyno run. Gave it to AGH who then got the next winning ticket ! Needless to say he never gave it back.

Yes, a great day. Fantastic to see so many cherished machines and meet some of the gang. But where did the Landau come from? - just a coincidence I guess highlight for me was the superb FB! Hope to do it all again next time.

Awesome day as usual... Almost need a whole weekend to get around to talk to everyone.
Wish I had a video camera just before Tiler pulled off to exit, and he gunned it. Big cloud of smoke from something, suspect the tyres. Have photos as well, so will post them, now that I seemed to have found a free internet connection up here in Newcastle.

Going to be a very happy week this week with a full bottle of bundy, and australia day on Thursday.

Yes indeed, a very good gathering. Top marks to Paul for the early start at the Ace (plus the ‘helpers’ and the organisation before plus Duncan for bringing some goodies back from Oz for the prizes, so too to the Vauxhall guys, Linden Special Vehicles, Monkfish and of course Wortec. Nice to see TWG represented too.

Best dressed person had to be Eric & Pauline’s bairn!

Great to see old friends once again and great to meet some new faces too, just a shame its not held in warmer weather.

Sorry to have missed you Bundaberg.

Dianne will be there next year.

Will

I’ll do something about the photos I took soon, sure I took a picture of every single car.
