Best show of 2005 for me was a toss up between Ford Fair and RS National Day.... didn't get to see much track action at Ford Fair but we always manage to be trackside at National Day and it kept everyone rivetted!



Going to Croft next year I think....

Don't think anyone would have said Castle Combe, after someone crashing and fooking the day even more.

National day but only becuase of the RS500 Touring cars

Croft is also my favourite,not because its my groups regional event but because its so laid back and well run.

Castle combe was a bit of a let down this year

Didnt enjoy being on track at ford fair either,too many pricks that couldnt drive and just found the track rather boring!

Missed Nat day and croft, so...

Central day for the atmosphere, the night before, the sheer number of people you can meet there.

Castle Combe for the track action

Central Day for me, as it's not a track day, so I can just look around the cars, meet people, and actually be sociable.

National Day was a let down because of the track stoppages, and Croft, although the weather was superb and the track great fun, was just too badly organised, and very frustrating.

Otherwise, Beds track day was a good one for me.
