also, just to say how many times have we all been to car shows, trudged round a muddy field to look at cars we've all seen before, theres nothing to buy or anything interesting to look at or watch?
well that aint donny south, thank god!
i'm in no way connected with the show, but i have to say its the best organised one ive ever been to. saw rocket ronnies skyline do a mental 0-60 time last year, along with scoobys, supras, evo's etc all having a go, even a ferrari 360.
a totally cool show!:)

Nice one Matey.
Wasn't too impressed with the show though. Trade stands weren't that interesting and not a great selection either. (Even I managed not to buy anything, which makes a change!)
Layout and organisation of the show area could have been better. As it was there seemed to be cars driving through crowds of people all through the day.
The arena and the strip provided some entertainment, if you managed to get a good spot.
The weather was good though. Shame the catering stands ran out of drinks so early :rolleyes:
There were some nice show cars :)

have to say it wasnt as good as last year. sponsored by ripspeed, but no big ripspeed tent this year:confused:
seemed to be a bit more max power this year too. seems all these kind of shows are going the way of trax, too much music pumped out of novas/saxo's etc, not enough proper cars. oh well:(

Best show I've ever been to is Goodwood. Expensive, but worth every penny. The most impressive line up of cars I've ever seen and very well organised.
