I have never been but looks to be worth a visit. Can anyone tell me when it will start in 08 and how often. I want to bring something Radical (SR4).

Sorry, yes I did mean Harpenden. Is this the only one of the year?

TT That sounds a bit sad for a bunch of car enthusiast's, I would have thought any car of interest old or new would at least be made welcome. Car snobbery, I hope there aren't too many PHers like that!
Just out of interest what were the other cars you were with? Sounds like it should be anoraks on the common nerd

Don't take my comments the wrong way, it's still a very nice way to spend a summer's evening. Although, like Tim, I think I may find alternative transport this year and have a few more beers than usual.

Our fellow COTC goers seem to appreciate all the cars that turn up, modern or not, so I shouldn't tar the event with the attitude of a single marshal.
Sorry, I just re-read your comment, just a sarcy comment from a marshal, typical there is always one. I may still take the Radical as most people seem happy to see it.

Careful as I doubt you'll be able to get the Radical into the carpark, let alone onto the field. It gets pretty cut up, particularly if the weather isn't great. You might end up ploughing the common.[/quote

I have got a Defender but not as much fun unless the ground is really bad.
However the Rad does get over all the speed humps I've encountered. Don't know if you are familiar with Brooklands drive in LB but it clears all of those without touching.
Thanks for the warning though.
