Hi

I know BBWF is the most important "Wedge" show of the year, but there are quite a few other shows during the year which some of us attended. I seem to spend a lot of weekends during the summer driving to and from them!

Do you think we should have a list up on the forum of shows which you could put your name against if your are going or might if others are?

For example my first show this year is on the MAY Bank Holiday weekend (30th April, 1st and 2nd of May) at Rushden Northants.

(Couple of pics of last years show)





(Pics after the wind had blown the Gazabo away!)


I am going to be there for all three days this year "Spreading the Wedge and TVR WORD"
It's a great show with lot's to see other than Cars and great chance to meet like minded people!

Well what do you think?

There's the 'Big Yorkshire Breakfast'...couple of times a year at Malton N.Yorks, with a run out. Some fantastic exotics there.





As well as shows there's sporting events like Harewood Hillclimb near Leeds, with TVR classes.



Also going to be TVR drag racing at York Raceway later in the year.





Usually in November, there is the (TVR) Whitby Goth Weekend run across the North York Moors.



- And not forgetting the TVR race series (Tuscan Dunlop Challenge) in which several Wedges and Wedge forum members compete. smile



NTEL's (Dave Chant) 2010 Championship Winning car....



TVRleigh's car...
