I knows there is a general thread in events section, but wondered if anyone here has dug deep and is going?

I live close and plenty of activity now.

I'm there Sat. Weather looks to be good.

Went both days in the end but the concerts not my thing. Some highlights-

- the Pikes Peak 405 and the group B line up.

- ease of getting in and out.

- the black Corvette doing Sporting Bears. The black lines on the A49 are from it doing burn outs on passenger rides!

- the Kahn tat. Again not my thing but interesting to see them.

- Amari. Again, interesting to see. The week old FF was probably highlight of the show.

- the auction. Would have the KWE XJS in a shot.

- the food. V v expensive but very tasty. Just about acceptable.

- and the Vulcan bomber. Wow!

A good event and takes car events to another level. Have never seen so many WAGS at such an event. Must be doing something right.

Thank you! I'm glad somebody appreciated my work! wink Apparently a local complained to the constabulary about my 'elevenses', though all I saw were people on tables at the pub cheering. Some people have no sense of humour.

On a side note Sporting Bears raised £9,730 before Gift Aid that weekend so thank you to everyone who made donations and joined in. Great show and looking forward to next year already.
Well it was great to watch. I had slipped out of the main event and was on the bank and it made a great sight. On Sunday there were two lads there with deck hairs watching as well!

On Saturday the locks bib pulled the XJ220. It had no front plate and I was just hoping that the guys had not pulled him for that. If so, bloody small minded.
