was not too bad.

its only a regional show so cannot expect too many traders there.

good to meet up with a few faces too.

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...

D16PJM

surely it was worth going just to see beefy in his outfit, looked like he was enjoying it a bit to much.

brett_

it was my first time and i didnt think it was that bad, could have done wid a few more stands.....

but overall i think it was a good day out, and i saw some pretty qicks fords on the strip too

That Escort was fooking quick the sleeper one, Blackys i think it is...

SiZT

WAS! or is it wenny's mk3?

Ford RS Enthusiast

a lot of peeps i know did not go saying they could not afford it because of the credit crunch probably why its not so good this year , people not wanting to spend on things like this

SiZT

You'll find a lot of traders aren't going to the shows this year

Staffi

iTrader: (1)

I agree with the too many non fords up the strip.
I couldnt give a fuck how fast a shitvic type R is. On classic ford up the pod they only allow fords up the track as its what people have paid to see.

Best bit was the drive there and back.

l0ubie

thought it was an alright day actually!

thanks to jay and will and the rest of the boys for the push start (another thing thats broken )
managed to lock my keys in the car and the spare in the boot!

all in all not a bad day! LOVELY weather
small trade stands but as people have said, credit crunch!

kosman

i didnt go because i found the rattling on my saff,it was a washer in the cambelt pully,bit gutted because its been awesome weather and havent been able to use my car.

c9sse

Booked stand space for 30 cars...... Fortunatly only had 22 as we hardly had room for them!!!!!! Parked like fooking Tescos carpark they were so squeezed in. Felt sorry for the stand next to us they had more cars and less room so parked a couple with us.

Not impressed at all with that part of the show but the rest was the usual...... spot on imo.
