Now thats one hell of a 4x4 track!!!!

Did they paint the dirt on the Aston?
At my age, it takes me all night to do what I used to do all night!!!!!!!!!!!
Then, growing old is compulsary, but growing up is just optional.

I don't do GREEN, I've got a 4x4

The Challenger for me please... what a beauty!
Saw one on the M27 Yesterday, Orange... possibly the same one as it was heading that way. Sounded good.
It appears to not be taxed too!! ;)

Well, I've been a few times before and much as I regret saying this, you can keep it. It's far too crowded and expensive now, and not what it used to be. I have a freind who is exhibiting there and of course I wish him well, but for me the lure of club racing calls. Hopefully a good day of historics at Pembrey will cure my ills.

I'd gone off it over the last few years. Missed 06 and I popped in quickly in 07 for an hour or two, really just to see the new rally track, which was ok.

However, I reckon this year the numbers attending yesterday were about half of say 2005. I have to say I really enjoyed it, no crowds or queues and straight out of the car park no bother. Not sure of it's cos of reducd tickets numbers, the credit crunch or that people are tired of the formula but it was excellent, especially as we had free tix from the Sunday Times.
I wouldn't sit there if I were you, it's still a bit wet.
