June is pretty busy for me by the looks of things, hope to squeeze in some car stuff though. Sunday 4th June is the Breakfast Club at Haynes and I'd REALLY like to get to it as I keep missing them. Saturday 17th June is Players Classic at Goodwood which is a nice day out Sunday 18th June has me split, I'd really like to go to Retro Show at Santa Pod (particularly as we have a stand), but I suspect the Datsun isn't going to be ready and that will make me sad as it was my target. So I may well head to BHP Fuel Fest : bhpfuelfest.com/ I've been trying to get to it for the last three years but keep failing it looks like a great day out with a nice mix of cars. I also think I may have a gig I need to be at on the 17th which would mean Sunday shows are a no go. Such is my life :/ July 1st (which isn't June I know!) is the Super Prix at Brands Hatch : www.brandshatch.co.uk/calendar/2017/july/hscc-01-02-july.aspx it looks to have a bit more single seater action than I usually like but the rest of the field would make up for that. Would love to get a Retro Rides day out there together, so look out for me attempting to make that happen In between all that I'll be planning a show (well two shows now) and trying to make my car work, and trying to find time to record some more videos, and making some more content for the forum and do some more styling/changes to make it more usable What are your plans for June?

my weekends are hectic with visiting friends and family stuff, but my car should be back on the road with a 100% power increase so I'll be enjoying that

Probably going to Gurston Down Hillclimb on the 17/18th June, as it is part of their 50th Anniversary weekend.
Then off to Goodwood on the 29th June for the Festival of speed.

10/11th is the Dig For Victory show in Wraxall, nr Bristol, I organise the classic car timeline. Ok so not massively car-orientated but Sunday we are having a Dakota flyby and lots of demos and vehicle arena action all weekend. Can't get much more retro than a GM Fox armoured car or a Universal Carrier (Flathead v8 tracked bathtub) tearing up the arena. If you turn up in something retro we may even ask to get you on the timeline.. www.digforvictoryshow.com

X1/9 is off to a specialist for an assessment.... so should have a jobs list after that! (concerned there may bit of a saga to unfold there...) and mondeo needs a few bits.

i really should be continuing with the Dax's but life has got in the way... need to get the Beat MOT'd but probably won't happen just yet, can't seem to tie a day/time down to get it back for re-test off on the 19th to Ypres for the Rally, sadly not an ERC event this year and no Freddy Loix but the BRC is there and the FIA Historic and Belgian National Historic running alongside...Belgian Trappist Beers, chocolates, RWD hooligans..perfect. then down to the 'chateau', as the hordes travel up from LM24, for a rest as well as fitting 3 Roof Windows so i can then pay more Taxe D'habtation to keep the French economy afloat.

This monday off to an Oldtimerdag in a small town near by, last went a couple of years ago and it had a good turn out of stuff. Then 16th-18th June is IKW Wanroij - www.ikwwanroij.nl/ - which is the big show for the dutch VW owners club. Also on the 18th is an american car meeting, so shall try to fit that in as well. Other than that, every spare minute I hope to be in the garage working on my buggy, see if I can get it out this summer.

With Sprint up for sale and with a potential buyer already lined up June and early July are pretty much a farewell tour for it! Yesterday - Epic car related BBQ at a mates 17th June is Players Classic - managed to somehow get selected for the main paddock which is cool 18th June is Retro Show - trying not to break it while taking it up the drag strip 1st July is Scotland Roadtrip - in the spirit of our previous roadtrips around Europe but we're staying on this island this time around. 2000 miles up and around Scotland to include the North Coast 500 route and maybe a track day at Crail. All in a 43year old car that I'm potentially handing over to the new owner the week we get back. What could possibly go wrong!
