OK Its Bank Holiday Friday. That means its WHEELS DAY, I have been going to wheels day since its inception when it was in the cattle market, with the recent rain, and the topography of Rushmore Arena, making the show field a Quagmire in many places, and the cockup with the booking cut off dates, is it a viable show this year? and is it even worth getting up for?

I'll be there, as will a fair few other RRers.
It's been a full year and I've not shared my shots from last year fully :/

Wheels Day is still a must for me.
And yes, it's a one-day show.

oh yes! - I'm a mere newcomer, only having been going for the last decade but it's never not been worth going
(even that year the whole field flooded and it rained all day)
it's not the start of the show season without wheels day for me

Wheels day in the cattle market. In the pouring rain. With the band playing on the curtain side trailer. And my mate Gary's VW fastback with water running over the sills. Yup. Only been the once and I think that will last me a life time.... Having said that several of my cars have been there over the years, just not with me driving them. Enjoy. Looks like Biblical rain so should be a good one..... P.

Yes, it was too hot last year.
I've been going since before Slyfield Cattle Market in Guildford.
South Hill Park in Bracknell was my first one, I can still remember the crowd moving as one when Ray Christopher turned up with "Pastyoureyes Express", the V8 Milk Float.

What does wheels 48 day stand for? More a wheels weekend than a wheels day?

Was a great day out. Thankfully markbognor bought sunscreen so I didn't end up sunburnt. Saw a bunch of RR folk and families thereof. Saw a bunch of cool cars. Took a load of photos. Writing it up for SpeedHunters so will share some photos once that is live.
