Just got back from Gaydon, Great to meet so many nice people and cars and catch up with friends old and new.

The party was very good on the Saturday night thank you to the team for putting it together. :D

Only 1 thing spoiled the weekend was the idiot in the Boxster who also camped over night for getting in his car at about 13.00 in the morning trying to wheel spin (out of control) very juvenile behaviour and extremely dangerous with cars and tents so close Please play with children your own age and stay away from forthcoming TIPEC events in future . :evil

it was stupid but fortunately no one was harmed or cars damaged, i'm sure he learned from this and wouldn't do it again.
and he's partner gave him enough grief to last him a life time.

but hell what a weekend :D

Totally agree with comments and i was extremely grateful my wife and children were not there.

Please don't do it again - YOU KNOW WHO ARE!!!.

On a lighter note well done to all involved in organising and well done to the bloke that won an orange with flags in.

We had a great time as well, so thanks to everyone who put so much hard work into the event to make it a success.

Slightly marred by the idiot in the Boxster in the camp site putting life and other peoples cars at risk, but it sounds as though he'll have got the message if he reads this thread.

Bring on next year!

Had a great weekend and looking forward to other events. :bounce:

Saw the campsite goon going home on Sunday afternoon and there wasn't much chat going on in the car (tail firmly between his legs) :roll:

See you all next year and congrats on the organisation
