I know there's another thread running about the trade days, but some of us aren't important enough to go to them.

So...who's going, and on what day?

I'm there on Sunday.

I am going on Sunday and watching the late live action show.

Dank, you can buy tickets on the day, but the queues can be long.

Has there been any feedback from the show yet from the smaller stands, more specifically what did Austec do to the Tam they were peparing .

Is it best to buy in advance (to collect from the box office) or pay on the door? I.e. which is likely to have the shortest que?

Just got a message that the Austec/ACT stand won best of show!

The orange Tamora from Austec looked stunning. Every last detail sorted and in a very lairy orange.

A S6 motor rebuilt to Paul's specification and new lights, new wheels, fab paint job.

No1 son has just come back from the show and said it is posted as making 400.3bhp which is pretty impressive for the 3.6 speed6 rebuilt to Pauls spec

It was 9am on saturday, tis fair to assume the same for Sunday.

I quite enjoyed the show, apart from not being able (ie bothered) to get any clear shots due to the crowds.

Getting an eyefull of Micheele Marsh & Lucy Pinder made up for it though...

I have a bit of praise for the organisers as opposed to the usual bashing, but i think it deserves its own thread....
