As it is going to be a nice clear sunny Sunday morning I was wondering if any of you guys are going along to the meet at 9.30 http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topi ... 0&t=490302 |

I think I'll be there. Watch out for the speed cameras on the A21 near the Tunbridge Wells turn-off, and the ones on the A26. |

I was going to wash the car before I set out, but it's flippin' freezing out there!! Even my car-washing Marigolds won't keep the frost-bite away! So that means Pebbles will be going out in a less then spotlessly shiny condition. Please forgive me. |

Here are some pickies for those who did not make it: The arrival of the Caterham brigate: Attachment: small_2008_PH_Sunday_Service003.jpg and the RS brigade... Attachment: small_2008_PH_Sunday_Service007.jpg the Italians were there in force. Attachment: small_2008_PH_Sunday_Service022.jpg ..and a couple of STis Attachment: small_2008_PH_Sunday_Service040.jpg This GT3 MR generated lots of interest - it was pained in a matte black - a bit like a stealth bomber; Attachment: small_2008_PH_Sunday_Service044.jpg

It was pretty busy by 10am... Attachment: small_2008_PH_Sunday_Service058.jpg Now that's what I call aerodynamic bodywork... Attachment: small_2008_PH_Sunday_Service074.jpg ...wisdom and mature beauty v. the charms and vigour of youth... Attachment: small_2008_PH_Sunday_Service089.jpg and finally, this is one of two original Ford GT40 - awesome machines. Just look at the plumbing... Attachment: small_2008_PH_Sunday_Service092.jpg

Great shots seg! Next time I will a) get there before 9am; b) eat breakfast before I go, and c) bring a flask of coffee. I think the turnout took the organizers by surprise - I didn't enjoy the 20min wait in line for a cup of hot coffee & by the time I got to the front of the line they'd run out of bacon butties!! Still great Sunday morning out, all for free, and a nice alternative to washing the car! ![]() |

The car park has about 300 spaces and I understand that last year they *almost* filled it up - this year I reckon there were at least 200 extra cars, the place was solid. It would have been nice if we could have all parked together. Let's get better organised next year! Ther was an interesting mix of cars there - from the 318s done up as M3s to the GT 40s. Around 11.30 one lone police car arrived and the driver got out to have a look around. As soon as he headed our way, I noticed a couple of people whose cars did not have licence plates, frantically rampaging through the contents of their boots, getting a set of plates out and screwing them at the front of their cars... ![]() seg |
