Maybe save it for a southern gathering.

That Jag was amazing.

This was good last year, would be nice to bring a car to one though. Bit far for the majority of people on here I would have thought (who all seem to live in Yorkshire...)

And I met the guy that built that twin blower jag/daimler, he works out of the shed next door to the guy who fixed my car.

North Weald airfield?

I only say this as its 5 mins away from me. The RWYB's turn out some interesting stuff.

If anyone else is local, I'll be aiming to attend all these this year.

In the 13's at last!.. Just

Personally I'd say this is the weekend to go for at Avon

http://www.shakespearecountyraceway.com/ev...ls.asp?event=83

Those of us who braved it in 2012 had a good weekend and there was plenty of track time too. Plus there's the added bonus of that 18 year old blonde bird with the pink drag car to admire *happy*

I could be tempted to have a go. I understand its simple on regs?

I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.
VEMS + 12 PSI + Liquid Intercooler = Small Bore FUN!

My car won't be running this year, only just about to start ripping it apart for a full rebuild so i'll only be popping along for a beer and to take pics anyway.

Sure we can pick a weekend where the majority of us can make it, i'll have a look what's on at Pod too although track time at Avon is always much better.

It has to look safe and not be able to drip oil/water onto the track unless it explodes (oil breather tank, rad overflow venting to a beer can etc). And you need a helmet for Avon.

So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'...
