Well I had a good day but what a load of rubbish. No trade stands nothing really that good to look at and a load of bad vibes from people in near identical T shirts to ours.

Looks like the Internet has ruined the car shows with no traders willing to spend time and effort to visit and display when they can do so online much more easily. When Shane Lynch is your star attraction and there are nearly as many model cars as real ones its a bad sign. Standard was really low over all. Sorry organisers but I found it hard to keep the enthusiasm. Some good bits with the Army and the trials riders though so not all bad.

I'll not be going to this again sorry.

I must admit, very poor compared to two years ago. Will have to look long and hard next time, if there is a next time.

Roll on Rally Day. An event for drivers not shiney bonnets and clean wheels!

Good company, not a very good show mainly due to a very poor turn out and lack of trade stands, don't think i'll be going again next year.
Enjoyed the Total Trials display though

Well i gotta agree with the others, very poor show and i told them so on my wayout.

This has to be one of the worst shows i've been too and to charge £13 entry for all that was on show really took the ****.

Never again will i go.

ok rant over

Looks like all clubs feel the same and are all disappointed with the day and some where the the weekend too.
Its a pity it turned out the way it did as we are looking to support are welsh shows but its a bit hard when you are paying that sort of money just for disappointment.

Lets how the future events in Wales go a bit better.
