About 7:15! Can't stand the queues!

Unless, of course it's raining, in which case I shall be staying in bed!

Look forward to seeing you.

Another great event and the weather held out nicely.

Saw 2 other Wedges there. A pale metallic pearlescent 400 SX and a metallic burgundy 430 SE. Both much smarter than mine, I have to say. But mine does sound the dogs!! Not many people seemed to look at it but lots looked and listened when I left!!

Lots of MR2's and MX5's there. But the best of the bunch for me were the 2 Lamborghini Silhouettes. Apparently only 52 made and 2 of them turned out this morning!

Oh, almost forgot, there was also a very nice condition Morris Marina TC convertible......quality!

Which was your Wedge Chappers?

I followed the light blue one in. I was about 4 cars back, but they directed me to the paddock closest to the track entrance. By the time I had gone over to the other Wedge the owner was gone! Also went back to mine to see if they had done the same, but no chance!!

Not doing BBWF this year unfortunately. I have Le Mans the weekend after and Le Mans Classic about 3 weeks after that! Only some many passes going at the moment as I haven't yet booked a family holiday!!

Are you local to Goodwood?

Was a brilliant day. Having a roof, I was relegated to parking in the field but so much to see even in the car park.

There were some who got in with a roof and even worse....there were some who got in with a soft-top but they didn't take it down.

But it was another excellent morning. Excellent weather, relaxed atmosphere and lots of interesting cars. Forgot to mention the 2 MGRV8's (always had a soft spot for those) and the convertible Interceptor.
