Who knows, will we have enough members who would like to partake on a stand by then?

I'd like to think so.  :)

Don't know if you've been to the Exeter Show... But for anything other than the companys that are displaying their products it more just like a big car park of kits outside though if we did go down, we could take ove a corner of that carpark and make ot our own for the day  ;D

Here are some pictures of last year. I was asked to show my car to represent the Westfield Kit Car Club. Proud weekend. Good event, have been for the last couple of years. The pictures show the indoor part from last year. There is also the outdoor part as mentioned with food and loads of cars!

Great pics there Dave, thanks for shareing.

Strange time of the year to have a kit car show but I will be there this year too. Perhaps we can make a club run to it?

Must admit, we went last year and to be honest I was a little disappointed. And after going to Stoneleigh for the first time this year, I think I would be even more disappointed this year.

Just my opinion you understand :)

In comparison I would agree. Its nowhere near the scale.

I personally thought Stoneleigh was a great show, looking back I enjoyed it more than what I thought and cant wait for the next one. I guess it would be hard to replicate it.

Nevertheless, I will be at the Exeter show just to check it out  ;D

Nothing WILL come close to Stoneleigh in terms of size and attractions, it's the largest kit show in Europe! probably as it's the most central countrywise one there is..
Exeter is good that it can give you that little boost in building your car towards the end of the year, get a few bits in to do over the winter

You are well ahead of me in build, my garage floor is still empty, I think September may be a bit ambitious for me but you should never say never.

What dates in September ?
