It is on this Weekend, even advertised on the telly!
So is there to be an official Jago presence?
Hope to spend at least the Saturday there, am babysitting my Grandson (he thinks Yellow Peril is his - well he did help rebuild it and occasionally gets to drive it - off road of course!) so looks like the 4 year old is in for a long trip and an even longer day.
Any potential for meeting fellow die hard jagoers there?
Dave

I went on the Saturday (without the Jago - too wet - no hood) It was a pretty good show, haven't been to one in years - Newark was the last one I think.
I've put some pictures on my website.

Did you go Dave? What did you think?

Yep, got there this AM, first time on Motorway with yellow peril - 70+ mph all the way (1300 xflow)
One other Jago there, young chap from Taunton - maroon paint job, raised hard top, 2ltr pinto - quite nice too!
pity about not being allowed to park up before 10, bit stupid as they let the kits and public in at the same time. Cars trying to follow the security instructions on lining up and Joe public stood in the way - waiting to have a look!
Lot's of interesting cars there too - mainly the up-market varieties.
Was able to pick up some usefull bits and pieces for the jago and a few bits for the spartan too, so all in all not a bad day - took the 4 y.o. grandson and he was even good fun.
Look forward to the bigger shows next year though, not enough happening at Exeter to hold any interest for too long - other than a motorcyclist doing a wheelie and stunt display - quite good at it too.

I didn't arrive till after 12 - must have missed you & the peril. See you next season. I met the other guys mate in Taunton services! His buggy had broke down with water in the carbs - he still turned up though an hour later than planned.
