I'll be going as i need some bits-n-bobs.

I can't remember, does this one have the set-aside parking for classic/interesting cars?

Yes it does, loads of it. Some on grass and some on tarmac. Had a good day there last time. :)

Dixie, Cob69 and myself plus another Cobra are going on the Sunday all being well.

(I've had the Hood re-sprayed in Holographic Metal Flake so need to finish putting it back together.)

Try to take a few at the weekend......haven't seen it properly myself, certainly not in the sun.

It's a brighter red than before, with ultra fine gold, purple, silver and red metal flakes covered with 3 layers of lacquer,
should sparkle in the sun.... 8) 8)

Quick video of me and Tony leaving the show.  At 3mins I did a little drag strip.  Rev limiter came in at 4000rpm, go to be careful on my new engine.

At 8.40 mins, another blast into B&W.

I will try and upload some photos.

Well I was there too guys with Crash Test Dummy.  Sorry I missed you.  I got there early and left just after you arrived and still didn't see you.  But I am sure I heard you arrive now.

Dixie that car always sounded great and now it sounds even better - how about Llandow May 16th?

I was there yesterday, quite funny watching you guys arrive in convoy - everyone in the carpark turned to watch (and listen), very impressive!

The show was not as big as I remember last years but there were some nice cars there none-the-less. I didn't buy much, just some tools and other stuff I probably don't need :)

The Cobra sound brilliant on the video..... I see Tony also has some new posh rear lights, nice.
