Has anyone got some photos of the national day my memory card has gone stupid on me and lost all photos and videos I took

 

Very few by the looks of it

 

Has the show gone downhill or something? There used to be several people posting pics of it on here, normally one of the biggest shows of the year

 

Never been the same since Donnington got revamped...
I thought there might have been a few threads with pics, or threads regarding the shows attendance, layout etc...

Can't have been that good then, glad I saved my money... Last few years have completely put me off RS National day...
Same layout, flying trade stands, rain last year... High ticket fees...

Yet without the real enthusiast that turn up on show, they have no show...

 

Yeah used to be a big show back in the day ( late 90s ) , think the last time I went was 2003 though..


Suprised I haven't seen anything about it on here!

 

All the feedback has been very positive, getting back to how it was.
Good weather helps as it does with all shows.
You missed a cracker
GrpB cars
M-sport (elfyn evans)
VBH on commentary
Rs500 touring cars

The day just flew by

 

It was that good, yet still no pics...

 

My Saff on the launch pad area (standard 2wd) and my favourite part of the day - the RS500's going out





It was a good one

 

The best days have gone, it gets smaller every year, but it was still a good day out.

 

it was a fantastic day, well organised with loads to see

concours may have been a little quiet on the day but the track was brimming as were the local group stands. i've heard very very little negativity about the show and wish it was back on this weekend


i took my camera but didn't take a single pic of anything as you couldn't walk more than 3 metres without tripping over someone taking a pic

 

Not been to national day since it was held at Rockingham, 2007/8? Was ok, but not as good as previous at Donnington....
Don't sound like it's improved? :-(

 

You must be on a different thread, all those that went thought it was a great day, only negative comments are by those who didn't go

 

Until you go again yourself you'll never know

Imo the best one for a few yrs.

 

Finally got the old girl out the garage, don't need much work now, but, time any money pending, will be doing some shows next year!

 

agree with those posting above, it was the best its been for a long time. last year and the year before was pretty crap, funnily enough i enjoyed 2010 at stanford hall as it was a completely different kind of day.
but this year was a great show, i was a bit annoyed with myself not taking any pics on the day but you couldn't get moved for people with cameras, i thought the WWW would have been overflowing with pics

the only pic i found of my car

 

Looks stunning that Chris.

 

thanks glenn, i still have a shopping list as long as my arm for it though


i won a small trophy at our meet on wednesday for best car on our stand at ND

 

+1. Usual suspects having a dig at the RSOC

 

Saw your car there Chris - stunning mate

 

thanks andy, its not quite up to the launch pad standard like yours though

 

How is it Stu?? What you been doing to it??

 

Loads of pics on Facebook and the RSOC forum, my missus took loads of the track action while we had some fun.
It's not worth spending 2 hours uploading them and posting for 2 people to say thanks those days have long gone.

10 minutes max and 200 pics uploaded to Facebook

You missed a good day folks.

 

Nothing major, although not been for a MOT yet.... Just been sat in the garage, not moved, as had 2 kids in the last two years...
Had to change the rocker gasket and, when I had it apart, noticed the cam belt is loose, been rubbing the cover for a while! :-0 Got to free off the N/S/R caliper, plus get the bailey header tank welded up, as it's got a crack on the top weld. Will need a pair of discs for the front AP's at some point soon and a re paint on a couple of wheels, give it a good clean an pray it's not rotted while garaged!!

 

The list will get smaller. Well done for winning a trophy.

 

Best it's been for years and as Sin mentions above why waste time uploading to web pages when social media is painless and instant.
Good family atmosphere, plenty to look at, full track, some great old skool touring cars and at 28 degrees with plenty skirt to look at!!!

Everyone also needs to remeber that The RSOC is an actual club not web based so there will be plenty right ups in forthcoming mags i'm sure.

Roll on 2015!!!

 

Pics from Facebook can be still posted on forums

 

tbh im surprised there hasn't been more pics posted on here.

 

It's pointless Glenn, I don't even put my pics on the RSOC anymore mate

 

Why bother Glenn , so the PF usuall sad RSOC haters can have there usuall digs

 

The thing is these people who dont like the rsoc and who would want to show there car, the rsoc would properly let them. Just cause I own an rs doesnt mean I dont like XRs STs. I like all Fords.

 

You are a rare breed though Glenn, it took me nearly 3 hours recently to sort through my pics and upload to Photobucket and then onto a forum.

Even on the RSOC the pics of the day have not been massive like you would expect from your own show ? This year is the slowest I have seen for pics of days out on all forums

Facebook must be part of the reason ?

 

sin i could kick myself for leaving the camera in the car at ND. everywhere you looked there was somebody with a camera lol and i just assumed that the pics would be all over the forums.
it used to take me a good few hours to upload onto the rsoc but didn't mind doing it as it advertised our group and the club to non members viewing.

i'm not on facebook either so i guess if me and tom didn't do it on there then nobody would

 

and that's precisely my point Chris, loads of folk with cameras and it's the same 3 or 4 folk posting pics, that's why I gave up mate

Plus folk keep going over their monthly allowance on Photobucket.

 

My pb account is about full. I might try an open another account.

 

well i guess its down to me and tom to serve the forum then

i have always had to switch between photobucket and tinypic, tinypic is ok but its one pic at a time so can take yonks if i have 200 pics to upload

 

Tom has come on leaps and bounds with his pics plus it will help him promote his new role as Fenland Chairman
