I will be going on Saturday, sadly not in the Wedge though.

I shall be there when the doors open at 09:30 on the Saturday morning (Living in Birmingham does have some advantages)
Should be a good event this year.

No problemo, took all sorts of pics but dont want to post too many any and spoil things for other vistors.

1970 Griff? If you mean the one on the TVR stand I think you`ll find its a Tuscan.

Very interesting Edlebrock powered early Griff on one of the magazine stand near the indoor demo ring - sign seemed to indicated that its a repro! its a very good one if it is.
Worth looking out for (its next to a Gulf blue racing Griff)

Thanks Steve,sorry i did mean the Tuscan

The Racing Griff Looks like Steve Wottons Car that did a couple of rounds of the TVRCC Challenge this year, Unfortunetly had oil pressure problems at both outings,requireing engine work and limited his appearances. Its fantasticly quick in a straight line....


At the recent monster meet at Snett it was the fastest car down the straight !!!!!! quicker than modded cerbys and tc cars... mind you he does have to hit the brakes about 200 yds earlier to slow down for the corner!!!


Edited to say I think Nigel Ruben had a hand in both of those cars and the road going one is run by his brother.... Nigel is the chap that rolling roads my cars in bromsgrove, and is a mean Jedi Pilot !!!!

Went yesterday, good to see the wedges properly represented. I did wonder whose cars they were on display.

[UncleDave]

Any good?
And even more importantly get any snaps? EDIT: seems i've just found the new thread.

Couldn't make it sorry! Going next week to MPH'05 and my chauffeur didn't fancy going down twice in a week..
Anyone going to MPH?

Dave.
