Is some GTR competition welcome?
Datsuns are welcome to spectate
As you can see from above there is enough bickering in the camp to whats a GM vehicle and whats not without it being an open event

Not sure if Our Japanese competitor's in the Uk are highly subsidising such an event for their customers I could be wrong.

Nothings changed
Its Vauxhalls, HSV's and yes Holdens I think one year we had a Pontiac aswell.
We would love to open it up to others but not sure I would be able to explain why im subsidising other manufacturers customers think youll understand.
As mentioned before anyone can come and watch and partake in our BBQ if you still want to come for a day out and that includes the Datsuns

Just been advised although Spectators dont need the usual forms they still all must be counted in the booking Hope that clarifies things

its tongue in cheek if you don't see it then its either because I have the delivery of Margaret Thatcher or you simply don't understand the concept of tongue in cheek.

and not like the uneasy Reading of Sarge and his belittling jokes of that lad from VX.
2 comments that maybe go against each other or maybe thats just me

Reason the other GM product is not included is if our Cheverolet colleages down stairs wanted to help with the costs of the events no problem but they dont.

And as most know it can still be run as a club / forum event but it will cost alot more that it does at the moment. And there was us thinking we were giving owners something back for purchasing in the first place. But I must be wrong..............

Quite right. I can tell you it does result(or has) in sales for VX though. wink As for Germans doing something like this for their customers???????????? I don't think so.

Respect to the VXR team!
Cheers
But the weird thing is we actually enjoy this type of thing too.
