dxg Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 I got the feeling it was geared up for families in their campers... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lauryn Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 Wasn't the best tbh, weather was dull, not a lot to see, and not really a lot of entertainment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr ColinG Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 Think you went on the wrong day guys, Sunday is always busiest.Will be there tomorrow so we shall see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lauryn Posted May 23, 2009 Report Share Posted May 23, 2009 Think you went on the wrong day guys, Sunday is always busiest.Will be there tomorrow so we shall see.There just wasnt anything happening really, theres only so much time you can spend walking round looking at cars and talking to people, I think to enjoy it properly you would need to camp and have a few drinks! TBH it wasnt really very busy with cars, and there was no entertainment (apart from 2 cars in the middle of the field sliding around ), maybe thats why I didnt really enjoy it. Hopefully tomorrow is better for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver! Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 As Colin said, Sunday is best. It is, as should be a family orientated event and has some seriously good air.It was a great day last year, but you need to keep an open mind. grab a beer and a sarnie and watch the antics in the arena. I found everyone I stood next to would talk for ages: real friendly environment without scantily clad girls and dance music blaring all over the show.Shame I missed it this year though.

kenzie Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 I was drunk. Lots. As I said in a post earlier, the show is what you make of it. I had an ace weekend, constant banter from start to finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr ColinG Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 Best black labrador? No they didnt take the dog, competition was stiff though a lot of black labs My car of the show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linz Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 Thank you! I wasn't overly hopeful of a prize considering it was just one class for water-cooled cars (well two ... modded and standard) so was really pleased. Was a great day out - quality cars, top banter and cracking weather! My face and neck are really burnt - never felt it at the time as it was quite windy at times.

Linz Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 No they didnt take the dog, competition was stiff though a lot of black labs My car of the show There were lots of labs ... but if Homar had been there he would have won!!! We agreed on that Beetle - it won a Show & Shine prize from the Saturday, but official car of the show was the orangey/bronzey coloured beetle, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B12TH M Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 Gutted i missed this. Sounds like it was a good one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linz Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 Well done Linz, did Byron take the bus? Did you beat him? Yes ... and yes! It was there primarily to show off the "FOR SALE" signs. I will upload a few pics shortly and post them up (never took many as I was getting progressively more poorly as the day went on ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
