Yup, going on Thursday. If it's your first time get there early, there is a HUGE amount to see. Trade days a little easier as the weekend crowds are massive. The show itself is brilliant, and, if you're that way inclined, the totty on the stands are generally pretty good too!

I'll be the totty on the 750MC/GTI Championship stand on Thursday and on the HCD stand on Saturday and Sunday in the Oval racing arena.
Come and say hi and have a cup of tea if you are around.

yep, assuming my free ticket arrives, I'll be there Friday. Visit the RSPerformance stand, some very nice engineering on display there, including a peach of an engine. Visit the Track and Race Cars stand too - I had to put that plug in - Hayman has promised to buy me a beer, and that's a rare occurrence indeed :-)

I'm going on Thursday. Don't expect to see much - bound to be less there than last year.

eek Really? Just had a look at their website. Surely their only option to stay alive is to shut Chiswick (don't know if they own the site - if they do, it must be worth mega-£)

Expect a mega-Stock shifting sale in the near future then I'd guess...

Damn shame if they do go under, I've always had them as first port of call for most race stuff.

RS Performance stand will be well worth a look, number 19735 near the Autosport stage. I will be there talking exhausts if anyone is interested.

I thought GPR has been bought by Tweeks?

Totty named Luke doesn't sound too appealing. biggrin

A cup of cha might do the trick though.
