Not long back myself, day was ok but no the best - was good to see some good quality motors rather than the usual saxo's with shitty add-ons!!

Did anyone see the truck do donuts then pop its tyre?? My mate got chucked out for doing a donut in his Sapphy Cos, they surrounded the car with four official jeeps!!

Vroooom ptsh - should have flagged me down mate, i was looking for fellow PF's but didn't know where to start haha!
