Yeah, was good!! Only there for a few hours, as I'd blagged Mk1oc passes and thought why not  Was a good place, shame Haynes wouldn't let my girlfriend in the museum with me & my one free pass (didn't want to pay!). Very well done! Enjoyed a walk around, a few chats, and the sprints were fun to watch!! Thanks! |

was an excellent day out imo  amazed by the amount of motors & the variety/style of motor's too - made a really good change from the usual ford stuff & castle combe stuff!!! the track action was good - did seem a little slow though the way it was ran but i'm not complaining. good to meet old faces & new big up to the area division chappies for sorting & organising & everyone else for behaving too  what date is next years?? ;D |

Awesome awesome day, thanks RR for my best show of the season! So refreshing to got to a show and see a massive range of different cars you don't normally see on the road or at shows. The atmosphere for me was another big part of the day, everyone I spoke to was chilled out and happy to talk about their cars. Next year I wont get drunk the night before and maybe have some sleep before I go. Went down in one of my mates mercs but was unsure what time it started this morning and so got there before 8, i think still half cut  . Unfortunately we had to leave early, Gutted. Next year I'm bringing our projects down and staying for the weekend. I took over 100 pics of the show so will put them up asap! |

I did!! My first one, never been to a car "show" quite like it. Massive thanks to ALL the organisers and the nice people at Haynes, and everyone generally for being so good spirited and friendly.

Aye, reet good laff was that. Shame about the 5hr journey home mind. When on earth are they going to dual the A303?! They need to knock down that old pile of stones and get on with it! ;D
Oh and obviously thanks to all the hard-working RR folk who made it happen, especially BC who ran a tight and very successful track shift that lasted most of the day!

I'm just back. Phew it's a trek from Somerset to Scotchland.
I really enjoyed it and everyone was really friendly. The Haynes museum was brilliant and I paid for a shot in the Ferrari 360 driven by a 70 year old guy who REALLY gave it the beans.
The only casualty was my fancy new google phone, which I managed to slam in the boot of the car after to much beer.
"Why won't this boot shut??, SLAM, SLAM...oh"
RIP google phone..

Another big thank you to everyone who helped organise and run the show, was a brilliant weekend and the perfect mix of all the things retro cars are about ;D Looking forward to next year already, definitely worth the 3 hour drive |
