National day rs day at rockingham
Ive just got back from the show today n i felt bored after the first 2 hours. Dont get me wrong there was loads of well turned out cars. I even thought the track action was crap 2 n them big v8 nascar i thought they were boring. I thought donnington last year was so much better than at rockingham. What r u views on this subject.

I thought it was a good day actually, must agree on the nascars though they were sooooo boring, but, apart from them i found it ok, national day last year was the worst one iv'e ever being in the last 15 years it was CRAP RS, its a dying breed im afraid, another 10 years don't think it will be happening, unless the blue oval do something a bit special, sharpish......

Well like i said i thought last year was better but each 2 there own. I cudnt see much of the track at rockingham but i thought it was better at donny. I also thought last year there were more cars than this year.

Rain rain rain not the best start for a car show i think alot of people stayed in bed today due to the weather but hey i had a good day i thought the racing was great something a diff to what ive seen before.The track wasnt all that and there could have been more fords out there today.I must say though the food stands might aswel just print money what a total rip off i think in future everyong should take food and boycott them but i did enjoy the crape and cake stall yum yum.

I had a pretty good day. Weather could have been alot better though
I saw some track action in the afternoon, thought the V8 nascars would be pretty good but nearly fell asleep as they were so boring!
The pickup truck race on the otherhand was brilliant! Plenty of offs, fast and sounded great....just a shame that the fiesta race series drivers decided to protest the cancellation of their race which in turn stopped the pickup trucks racing again!

just didnt look exciting tho.. years back you'd have mk1 and 2's drifting, sliding all over the place..! good entertaining..
best bit was on the way up there.. black saff, G plter with black plates, sideways around all the roundabouts
Just pleased it wasnt far..!

I thought it was OK, wasnt impressed with the club stand area and was a poor turn out of traders. Seems Ford Fair is now the big show of the year.
I was impressed with the facilities and grandstand much better than I was expecting Shit Nascars ruined what could have been great track action and what were the Red Arrows all about... Just one fly by.. wasnt worth them taking off!!
