IMO it was a good show
Good weather
Good atmosphere
Good cars on display
Not a massive wait in the fire up lane
Got to see and chat to some old faces and some new.
Only complaint is my freshly rebuilt gearbox now sounds like a straight cut one and is difficult to get gears also the diff is making some terrible noises as well
Well done Central Group, a great day out.

It WAS Ford cars only- my mate got turned away in his EVO5 along with BMWs etc but was later invited back as there was all of a dozen Fords running at midday- would have been a shite turn out had the Jap stuff etc not been allowed!
It was a good show I thought, and a fair turnout of Fords on the strip in the end too good to have a gander at the winter projects at their first show 
mine may run in a couple of months fingers crossed

Just got back.
I had a awesome weekend. Few of us went down on Saturday and stayed over in Northampton so that was good.
And as for the show, i wasn't too fussed about it, thought it was good tho. I just love the socialising side of it. Was good to meet some more new faces too.
See you all at the next one.

I,ve just got back and i disagree, there was a few quick saffs today, some good terminals too, a saw a nice Moonstone one do a 12.3 @ 121, that,s not too shabby.
Tims NMS Escort did a high twelve @ 120 + also...
Day was ok i thought, good to catch-up with everyone again...

I thought it was pretty good day tbh
other than the drive home, when as soon as I got out of the santa pod grounds, my car wouldn't rev past 2.5k
anyone spot me doing an incredible 55mph on the motorway

that was on the 17's with road tyres, i dont think he is running full power either due to gear box issues.

you got it sorted

The trade stands i have to agree were VERY POOR, but for me the catching up with people and watching the cars on stands with the boys was my highlight.
a MASSIVE weldone to Maria, Beefy & Neil! top sports and raised a fair few quid today for the chosen charities!!
Im just glad the sun did finally start to shine

the beefy pics are going to be stuff of legend, he was very "enthusiatic" in his collection manner
i thought it was a good day out, nothing in particular that i thought was a stand out moment, but there wasn't anything i disliked as a whole, other than the air con being stuck on fast and cold and the cold weather in the morning (i had to buy a jumper from one of the stands)
had a good talk with a lot of people, found out some intresting things i didn't know, nothing sinister, just some peole who were other peole who i thought i knew but wern't
even met jb
it was a good day out for me as far as i was concerned

It's the first time I've been, so can't compare, but there was loads to see and it was heaving. The only downside for me was too much beer and very little sleep on the Saturday so I didn't take much in today at all, or take many photos (9 in total )
I said hello to a few peeps today but can't remember them all right now as I've just woken up, but it was nice to meet you all.
I also owe Maria 20 fags.
Big thanks to Terry Tibbs and the 'boro crew for looking after me, they're a great bunch.
And Louie, I love yooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooou.:cry :

Glenny was eating the frisbee burger.
Nice to meet you hun, I was struggling to see by then. It made for an interesting drive home I can tell ya. 2 1/2 hours and nearly 20 fags to keep me going.
