Default Ford Fair

Quality day, and hardly no ques when we got there at 10ish..! was expecting loads of traffic but not too bad considering..

Track action was entertaining with a few select cars.. Nice parade lap of the Cossies Was waiting for RST lap, but there werent one

Didnt see any trade stands as never went looking unfortunbately, pretty much sat about watching track as thats where its at

will try and add a few pics

Was a quality day saw loads of friendly faces. And met Mr & Mrs Frog on a potter about with MadMac.

Even had a play on the A5 with the white ZT XR2i that was on the PTS stand. Was pretty close and when I chatted to the owner he seemed slightly miffed that mine is still a 1600 CVH Quick car though and the bloke was pretty cool as well

I now look like a lobster but Ford Fair wouldn't be the same without sunburn

Just got back, thought it was totally crap TBH.

That cosworth parade lap was terrible...200plus cossies all bunched up stopped to a stand still, stopping and starting, what a waste of another track session

Think Ford Fair needs to go to a new venue, it use to be good when they were at the stately homes

I had a good day to be honest. Missed the cossie parade lap though According to Paul I didn't miss much though. . .
Got a nice Pro Alloy 500 intercooler new number plate for the front and a dust cover for the old girl when she's int garage. BIG UP to QCC for the cover. I didn't have enough cash and he didn't take plastic. Just took my details and said post me a cheque tomorrow!!! How many guys would do that who you had never met before! Full respect due

I'll agree with you there Paul, all the cars mixed up? Think a little bit more time and the cars together in groups eg all the 3drs, then the Taxi's and then Escorts would have been alot better.

Apart from that not a bad day, got a nice hand drawn picture of and S2.

Good day spent Ł1100 with pro-alloy ( heavy walk back to the car) brought some light from nomad thanks
Watched the track action very good but should have put the Cossies in out all together not mixed.

That white Fiesta was so so so quick and the sound was still don't know what was in it but did it rev

All in all a good day
