I left around 5 and they were close to £6k
@Lyons yep it was indeed, you looked in deep conversation.
@Mark King your rs6 is totally stunning. I had a peep inside while you where chatting to weed.
was a good day and some nice cars. The white c63 is Andy quinns old motor that Ronnie has, goes well

You put some miles on that car today! Fair play to yourself and all the other drivers, great amount of money raised.

I was stood at the entrance to the car park and I have to say there were some nice cars in attendance. @Mark King your wagon was looking good and sounds very nice indeed!
Just one comment though the organisation / marshalling in was a bit of a joke. I watched one of the 'marshals' getting into a stand up argument with a guy in a silver van leading to the police being called. Some of the language he used was pretty choice too. Not saying either was in the right or wrong but the only voice I could hear was the marshal. The others weren't up to much either. That location isn't up to the task of hosting an event like that as spectator parking just wasn't up to it, there were a lot of people parking on motorway slip roads and roundabouts which is just dangerous. Good event, for a good cause but needs more planning and thought.

Took a wee lad out today in my Elise, it was his 10th birthday today and his parents got him a ticket as he always wanted to go in a Lotus, made my day knowing I had made his with something so simple and great money raised too.

Had a great day and did 26 runs in total, with some runs getting £30 to £40 a time which I was surprised at as some people didnt want to queue up!! Most of the police seemed decent enough apart from one grump auld boy who was standing in the middle of the road at one stage with the hairdryer :-( Lot of nice RMS cars and good to meet a few members

Loved the C63, noisy bugger, RS6s were both stunning, red one moreso and the carbon is just perfect on it. Derekm you are nuts, joy to watch you blasting in and out haha. Marshals could have done a better job, looked like it got totally bunged up at one point at least

Was anyone else listening to the guys with the microphones? Im pretty sure they had absolutely no clue what was happening. Couldn't even count the amount of times he said the California was a Cali-T....which is wasn't, then he said it was the fastest road car in the country.....pretty sure it wasn't the fastest car in the carpark. Then he said the V8 continental GT would do 225 mph.
Loved everything about today apart from them lol

Seen this too, the guys in the van went into the carpark after, parked beside my Volvo then proceeded to go over and check out all the cars, smiling and everything lol
Great day today. Didnt do as many runs as i would of liked as i felt people wern't getting good value for money at times cause the police where literally everywhere through out the day. Still a great day for a great cause.
I hope next year they could agree a lane closure or something like that.

Marshalling was rubbish... Arrived early enough and wasn't allowed in meaning parking up at b and q and walking down on the carriageway with the child in the buggy with no footpath...
Once in clear to see plenty of empty spaces and areas for parking!!

They're still on the memory card. Didn't take too many, got fed up carrying the camera so put it back in the car.
Too busy nursing my sunburn to edit them right now.
Good to meet you though, and also catch up with a few other members.
Great day out, took my brother along, he enjoyed it too. The road/route really needs closed to do it properly though.
should have told them to do one
