Food for thought; last year we went to the Wings and Wheels display at Dunsfold Airfield, (home of top gear)and for the wheels part of the display there were quite a few cars blasting down the runway! They included astons,jags, mustangs,tvr's, lots of old cars etc. It was in august and the vxr8 seemed to have a crowd around it most of the time. (i didn't want to leave it, wife told me to grow up!)

Well i was thinking the public should see and hear some proper V8's at full tilt down the runway, what do you all think!!

This is just down the road from me, check out the website:
www.wingsandwheels.net
It's on the 24th August, the summer bank holiday, unfortunately which usually means I will be sunning myself elsewhere!

I notice they do Club Stands as well as runway demonstrations, could be worth getting an HSV/Monaro group together for the event.

Will they let you cane it properly on the runway, or is it a sedate drive-by?
