A hearty thanks to Tony for putting this together and all the other organisers who helped. It was great catching up with some old aquaintances and also seeing a few new faces around. The drives out were quite fun - although a bit strange going around urban areas - and it was great to see where the wedges were built, and to meet Martin Lilley.

I'll post up some piccies sometime soon, while watching the doormat for any funny printouts (if you know what I mean.) Cheers everyone.

I agrea with you all this year was great, a big thanks to Tony and Co for a top 2 days, the trip to the factory was very good and every one there was very frendly and full of good info and stories.

I asked Tony about BBFW09 shirts so i was wondering how many would be interested like i am in a shirt for this year.

Once again it was great to see so many people and have the time to catch up.
Hope all got home safe.

Cheers

>> Did you get home OK Adam?

Yeah, although there was a little noise from the rear, maybe a wheel bearing (actually quite a big noise to hear over the exhaust!) so I'll probably check it over the next few days. Oh and I used a whole tank up.... It was a really clear run though, even past Brum, and the sun came out for the last stretch down the A14.

I just want to add my thanks to Tony and Rob; a really great location guys, you did BBWF proud.

Adam, what Db level did your car get to; it sounded bloody fantastic.

Phil, You've got a very special car there, take care of it, but more than that drive it and enjoy it.

Graham, great to see another Tyke there, hope your son is feeling OK.

Val, Nice little 2 car convoy on the motorway until I had to shoot off down the M61.

Paul, I hope you made it back home from Liverpool with your fan still on the cowling (and your wheels still on the car if you were brave enough to overnight in scouse land smile )


There are loads more that I spoke to and haven't mentioned but thumbup to everyone who attended.

I have to say having Peter's race car there made it very special.


My 4th Wedgefest in 3 1/2 years of ownership, looking forward to next years already chaps and chapesses.

Sorry I had to leave early.

Good to meet you and everyone.

That reminds me to turn back the rear suspension settings.

My whole body had tinitus by the time I arrived home at around 6am.

See you next year, or before.

it is very easy to forget how much work is invloved in events like this when you just turn up and easy to critize, but if nobody could be bothered doing it nothing would ever happen, so for me everybody involved deserves praise and respect and hope you keep doing it so i can enjoy next year as well.
thanks a to you all!!
