Nice to catch up with so many of you :D
Great weather for it too..

It was supposed to be alongside of superbikes too, I noticed that was a bit of a flop from what I could see...
I also worry that the chav/jap tuning is getting stronger at the show than ever before...
Admittedly I did leave at 3pm but the display ring was mainly full of Honda, Nissan type stuff.. Oh! and the loudest car competition!!

Either way a nice social day was had..

Yup I noticed this at Bromely. There was a large contingent of Jap (no problem) & Carz (yuck). Noticable how many of these are pretty illegal as well. Dodgy number plates, tinted front windows & windscreens etc.

Great day out yesterday and a welcome break from rendering my living room!

Sorry Sean I still owe you a pound - I'll buy you a pint next time I see you maybe at the SC meet next month.

Cheers
Paul

Yup AKA the Max Power brigade. Some of them were very well done, but others were pure Barry. I cannot see for the life of me what the point is of spending £30K on a Puegeot 206 when it would put you in some much more exotic metal. In fact this one probably cost in excess of £30K! :roll: This was very well done but a classic case in point:-

Good grief that really is something. Looks really practical for speed humps??

As you say odd that you shoudl spend so much on such cars when you could get yourself in some fine metal for the same cash.

Regards
Paul
