Autosport show - see you there!
In case saying hi to the PH team wasn't enough incentive here's some more stuff to look forward to
To get you in the mood though here's a quick round-up of some of the highlights of the show, which includes some proper unveilings along the way too. The Atom '3.5' we've already talked about in some detail and will be making its public debut, likewise the awesome looking Radical RXC coupe that really pushes the boundaries for road-legal track cars.
The very same Caterham R600 we drove before Christmas will be part of a huge presence from the brand throughout the show and there's also the latest iteration of the Mexican-built Mastretta MXT, known as the MXT-R and reportedly now using the Focus ST's Ecoboost 2.0-litre in place of the previous turbocharged Duratec. More on this from the show.
Also making a very welcome appearance will be the Deltawing, ready to soak up the plaudits after a dramatic 2012 that saw the car and its designer Ben Bowlby showered with awards, not least the PH award for outstanding engineering geekery.
See you there!
Just lots of people sat on sofas in a private little circle looking un-interested and a load of cars you couldn't get near that were duplicated elsewhere at the show with people willing to let you near/in them and talk to you.
I hope it's better this time around, you really didn't do the friendly fun forum atmosphere any justice when it came to 'real life' in my view.

I'll maybe stop by and say hello on Friday.

I have bought loads of stuff from shotdeadinthehead but only after seeing the quality after a friend bought one.
Just my 2 cents. (ps a cheque in the post is adequate if you steal my thoughts and end up selling loads :P )

I didn't get the PH stand either... the one in the corner with Flux and a finance company in heavy attendance?!
Was that the PH stand or not? Or were you in heavier attendance over in the arena or something?
I didn't see anyone in PH attire and you only had three cars on the stand?? An old Clio, 911 and a McLaren MP324234 thingy...?
Sorry but I really don't *get* what PH was trying to achieve this year with the stand except ramming Flux or Finance down your throat!?

Eventhough I generally get a free ticket, I don't think I shall bother to go next year
Live action arena good mix but wheres the supercars or more loud cars .
Lots of empty spaces in bottom hall.
Good mix of other stands through out pirelli chap helpful with tyre issues.
Like the fast radio control cars they were quick.
