got back at 10.20 as had to drop my friend (who bloody loved it!) back off in Worthing then come the extra 1.5 hours home. Said in another thread....... but yes, absolutely badical. I think I said to someone on the camping ground "its like standing in a field of win". Too many people to say thanks to, hi to, great to meet you to etc. epic work from all those involved with organisation, had a good laugh on the track, if I wasnt skint Id of done another few laps and may of even remembered my way round haha! But yes, too much goodness to fit into a tired reply |

Sheer epic awesomeness with a side-order of WIN.
Got in about 10pm, totally knackered. What a weekend!
I'll echo the thanks to the RRG team, you're all magnificent!
I met so many new people and caught up with the ones I already know. Far too many to list!
Extra big thanks to Nathan BGTMidget, his lovely lady and Hitch for letting me tag along - I wouldn't have made it otherwise.
Massive thanks to the legendary Oldbus for the fuel pump, and to Markbognor for the wheel bolts. Fantastic.
Mojo is off the scale right now, absolutely buzzing with enthusiasm again.

Mojo is off the scale right now, absolutely buzzing with enthusiasm again. Ill second that! The forum that we choose to show the results of our mojo seems to have regenerated that mojo back into the community! Supurb! Ive now got the mojo back to aim to use a classic everyday again, and after seeing the trailers today, i have decided to take on a project of my own thats been waiting for a while - the restoration of a trailer my dad made 30+ years ago, with added stance ;D |

I echo all of the above. I only joined the forum and went last minute because it was posted on the TR7 forum that I am member of. My god I`m glad I went. I was made to feel extremely welcome by Bruce and the SW crew, and the sofa and bacon sarnies were a touch of genius.
Hi and a big thank you to Bruce, Tigs, Grunty, Simon, err and everyone else whose names i`ve forgotten.
Brilliant day. Weekend next year I think. Cheers guys. And I`ll bring some food and drinks instead of scrounging yours!

Superb day! Massive thanks to everyone involved in organising and tunning it - must have been a huge amount of work! Thought the venue was great, superb combination of cars in the field and on the track.
Mojo now fully restored, I'm getting cracking on my R11 as it's going on the track next year ;D

Hey
Keefy will be online later, he is having issues remembering where he left his laptop ;D
While he's not looking though, I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who helped David and him indoors this weekend:
Ian
Bill
Rob & Polly
James & Mich
and even more so the impromptu helpers
Simon
Bryn
and Tiff
I didn't really see anything of the show except a bit of track action when bump got too heavy to stand and I needed to hide but those who did, seemed to be smiling and that's the main thing.
I am now very broken

Only made it to the Sunday but really enjoyed myself; it was a fantastic event. Next year the plan will be to camp over as I felt I probably missed out on the real fun, looked like everyone had a great time!
Big thanks to everyone who was involved in organising the event, and helped make it all happen. Hotwire and team I doff my cap!
Also big thanks to Bruce (Mystery Machine) and his great hospitality, and force feeding me burgers and bacon on the day!
Had a good time on the track, but had to keep telling myself to hold back as I didn’t want to mash anything before my trackday this week! Managed to get it together on the 3rd lap.
I loved the eclectic mix of cars too, some really interesting cars! I had quite a few WTF moments with some of them, most notably the Toyota Tercel, and that weird VW bread van thing – which was awesome!
I also had to stop myself from rubbing myself all over Robs (Racer86) Publica, I have bored Rob to death about it before but that is one car I simply wouldn’t change if I ever owned it, its amazing!
I took a lot of snaps on my Iphone which I will post up later tonight – they are probably poo though!

I also only got down on Sunday but still it was excellent! I can see that I definitely missed out on some epic nights so will be there for the whole weekend next time. Big thanks to all concerned in organising, marshalling and generally taking part. Who's was the cinema set up? I'm looking at doing something similar for the forthcoming BH2N Ring trip and could do with some advice. Ta |

Had a great time, a really relaxed vibe and excellent organisation. Was feeling reet ropy for most of saturday so didn't really get to go round peering at things so much, but it was all good. I am inspired to get on with sorting the van out properly!
