STAFFY OWNER

went a few years ago when i had a kit and its good for parts/spares but the rest was a bit dull for me!

went today - there's a couple of interesting things to look at - a new MX5 based 7-style kit which is pretty cheap, the GBS Zero which also looks extremely good value, an MK's new front suspension design.

Other than that, not much going on - as usual....

Going in the morning..... just on bbm with martooon trying to convince him to drive my Westy there. Its in Brum as he is mapping it this week!

I'm going in the ferrari... gonna be HILARIOUS as people will think its a fake! and will be thinking wow... what a good I have job hahahah!

There was a comedy 360 rep there today with a speaker setup in the boot playing recorded ferrari v8 noises - you'll have to go and show it up

Probably the best noise today though was a tuned Chimera doing number 11's past the Westfield demo paddock

Calm down, calm down. I'll hold my hands up, i know fuck all about kit cars and my comments were made tongue in cheek as a wind up - the sort of thing you'd say to a mate when you know he has a kit car and you just want to wind him up a bit.
Your challenge to a race may be a bit hasty as i drive a 2.0Si Mondeo but it's not any old Mondeo as its a Mk2 with both front and rear bumpers intact (very rare) - not a strip of Gaffa tape to be seen on either of them. Also as of earlier this afternoon it has a new pollen filter which means it is now much lighter because it's not carrying so much dust & shit. I will now understand if you wish to withdraw your challenge .

Dlatch!

went yesterday
it was cold and wet and not very impressive show, some interesting stuff from a few kit manufacturers.
stoneleigh is a odd venue the show is spread out all over the place very hard to find stuff if you never been before.
did manage to pick up a few bits for my locost though so not a complete waste of time

I went last year is a shambles of a show, that GBS Zero had stand last year is basically a robinhood seven they sell you a kit which you have to make 90% of again because all of its so poorely machined and cut nothing lines up or fits, i know many kits need a fettle here and there but gbs is total piss take you couldnt even use the swiss cheese chassis!

CraigJ

Just got back. First time id been. not that impressed. Great for parts and tools etc. like whats been said though its way too spead out.

Saw Porkie while i was there. F430 looked well. Hope martoon didnt get too wet driving the westie up for you.
