Just having a picnic here and they are unloading an Evora and an Elise/Exige. Evora sounds fantastic

Thankfully I didn't waste time to clean the car for this.
Sat in the house looking out at the rain

Shame about the weather but still a decent amount of cars.

Organisers weren't the most pleasent when parking up car clubs. Guy decided to mix two stands then have an attitude telling us we were taking too much time despite it being him faffing around that caused the delay.

Also the fact that we got charged £10 per person, the next car was £10 per car, then the next £10 per person, and so on. Very random.

Weather was shocking, but the turnout of proper good cars was great to see! Fun day out, Rally action, and good people (y)

Agreed
A great turn out on a shocking day weather wise but the park held up really well and well done to all those who came along and supported the event.

Had to agree, I had some ignorant organiser chap telling me to park properly twice, apparently I was parked too slanted... Isn't that what you do at a big car show? ^o)

I have to admit the show didn't use up all of the space, all of us were packed tightly to one side for some strange reason instead of spreading us out. NI BMW and Mazda club were near parked on top of us, not their fault as they were told to park there.

Yup have to agree

Shocking Parking and use of space.

Seen some fella in a brick red a4 had to be asked to park correctly twice! so not all the organisers fault when they have to deal with idiots like this.

Worse than that loads random daily diesels slammed on bicycle wheels. Since when was everyone's family car a show car? Or did they miss the spectators carpark?

Embarassing to say the least.

Was going to take a run up to it after work, but my dad was already there and said it hadn't stopped raining all day, so gave it a miss! Pity as there wasn't the same rain at home!

Lol... Let's just say that I wasn't the only one who was was upset by the parking and the guy beside me asked me why we were parked so close, and he's right, the entire other side of the grass was almost empty. In fact he even moved his car to another spot down the field and I didn't blame him.

Mr organiser if I'm an idiot for being concerned about doors banging up against my car then you obviously aren't a car guy yourself (y)

But anyway I'm not going to dwell on this, I know Cameron and he always puts a lot of effort into this show, I enjoyed it and I thought there was a nice wide range of cars, not everyone drives a Vtec Tonka toy.

Total jokulations. Too wet for me to venture out.

Sounds like it was still a decent show despite the weather, the sprint/rally stage would have been some fun I'd say.
