Hi Lindsay,

Are you thinking of going as a "spectator" or as an exhibitor.

I may be interested if the boss will sign the pass out.

I think that cars on show will be in the Market Place

If you are showing your car you have to be there for 0930 at the latest

If you are unsure where Centergravity is, it is on the small industrial estate at the rear of TNT, in Brindley Place. First turn right after TNT and then a cul de sac on the left.

Have never been to this event before but cannot see it presenting any more of a risk to a car than any other organised event

6 porsches turned up in the sunshine today, organisers were very pleased to see us and got us all parked in a row, thanks to all that turned up at such short notice

Hi Lindsay,

Thanks for organising the event.

What a glorious day and what a glorious and eclectic display of motors and bikes

Very relaxed atmosphere and all proceeds to charity. Even organised by a local member of the police force

In addition to that, if not enough, live folk music from the Angel pub, adjacent to where we were all parked, also raffles and prizes. D.J at one of the other pubs

Looks like a must do event for next year.

We all had colur photos taken with our cars for the princely sum of a £1 each donation to charity

Oh! forgot to mention that the entry fee was zilch

Just been looking at the row of Porsche's photographed at the Atherstone show, there was an article in the Warwickshire life magazine

Nice result

Hi

Which edition of the magazine was that.

Some of us might be interested in obtaining a copy

We are thinking of doing that event again next year

Nice setting, good pubs, live music and relaxed atmosphere
