This is not the retro rides show at Santa Pod .. its the Retro Show at Santa Pod ... just so you don't go and think we had anything to do with it  Fingers crossed that the Pods own weather system will kick in and it'll be a nice weekend. |

It'll be reet. And you know that even if it's hacking down with rain, we'll still all suffer from Pod Face! ;D

hmm, i was gonna go up saturday morning, lap up some retro machinery, do a few runs, bbq, a few beers and then have a look around GTI fest before pootleing home.
looks like i might have to break out the hard top!
a quick RWYB question, it says on the pods website that to do RWYB you need a helmet and arm restraints in an open top car (the ss1) however, i don't have any arm restrains to hand, and no harnesses to attach them too? does that mean i cant run? or will putting the hood up be OK? or the hard top (secured with 2 latchs and 4 bolts)?
i hope it doesnt rain, my soft top leaks tons, my hard top leaks quite a bit, and my wipers suck big time! i think i need a full scuba suite for this journey!
i might just take the modern and day trip it if its slashing it down!

I've been looking forward to this since last years! As the weather is gonna be a little 'dodgy' I'll probably not take the Sunbeam as I've just spent 5 hours polishing it and I don't like it getting wet!

Ratlookreliant, I had an SS1 a few months ago think you might have seen it, the gold b reg one - well good fun!! But leaked like a seive!! I had some documents in the pocket by your left leg on the gearbox tunnel and they were soaked!! I still have some documentation for it and its funny as its clearly been soaking wet and one point and dryed off!! Do your headlights go up and down?

Thats one of the things I'm worrying about, is it gonna be a wet muddy field full of modern cars?? ;D

Funny part o' the world for weather.
It's not far from where I am sat now.
I was up near the pod working yesterday, forecast was a bit off. Today was forecast heavy rain all day so I stayed in rather than going up there. Not a drop all day. Tomoz is forecast sun, betcha life it'll urinate down all day.

It was supposed to be heavy showers here today too but its been lovely all day.
Last year they forecast rain for the retro show, and thats probably why the turnout Wasnt so great, but it was one of the hottest days of the year in the end.

I'm travelling up from Hampshire, so the weather needs to be good all the way for me to want to take the Alpine. I'm not sure I like the idea of the muddy fields either...it makes me cringe just thinking about all that mud stuck to my clean underside!
