was good back in the day, went for about 6 years running in the early 2000's, a couple of those were wild, one year the idiots set the TV platform aside the strip on fire and when the pod fire people come they took the truck and hoses off them! as mentioned the ticket prices are daft now Ł70 quid each, used to be Ł12 when I started trying to go to sleep with cars revving off the limiter constantly till they break. another year someone stole a head unit out of one of the demo cars ran across the strip and over the bank, 5 mins later two lads dragged him back, out cold, back over the strip by his feet still out cold. ohh and the toilets forgot about one year it didn't stop raining everyone got stuck it was like the pictures of glasto, with mint cars ploughing mud

We run the 3 door up the strip and even though it's not predominantly a Ford event you still get the respect from other owners.
Sometimes Ford owners are their own worst enemy as other car fanatics seem to like anything while we have become insular ???
