True, but it's the abundant rain that keeps it looking that way.

the design shows a distinct lack of imagination,
talk about starting off with a clean sheet of paper, then not bothering to fucking draw on it,lol

Wil, keep me posted on the single seater :) ... we start looking around for UK based guest cars in Jan/Feb



There are videos floating around out there, I've posted a few to our Facebook page : www.facebook.com/retroridesgathering ... Think I've got another one to post this lunch time *happy* .. we've got video of all the runs up the hill, but I need to get them transfered from our videographer, which involves some nervous harddrive in the post type action.

Re:Modern cars on the hillclimb. We allow club stands to have a range of cars that represent their club with the understanding that their stand is predominantly pre-91, some clubs chose to ignore this and we'll be working out how to deal with this for next year's show. As hillclimb cars can come from club stands or retro parking we can end up with some of these modern cars on the hill. We may ask people to keep things in the spirit of the event and consider whether they should be taking their car up the hill. We are looking at this issue though.


Great to hear some news from someone in the know, Its understandable from the track organisers point of view, after all, its their bussiness to get as many cars paying their cash to have a blast.
Im sure i remember from last year there were no places to run, even in the afternoon session by mid-afternoon.
So when i heard there were still a few spaces up around 3pm or so, i was confused and it was that point i noticed the increase in modern cars.

I have a question for the dubbers amongst us, if you want to come out,

I say a couple of tubular things attached to the drivers door top, what the fuck are they ?

adam and I really enjoyed this. met some forum members which was nice. hopefully meet the others next time. it was something different, nice variety instead of just looking at other minis like the usual shows.

Apart from meeting other TM members and seeing a few interesting cars I did not particularly enjoy this last year -too many modern cars.

I was also not encouraged by the difficulties they put in my way when trying to sign on without an MOT -my car does not need one !
