Just back From Scooby Live
My God was it COLD !! I had to leave cause the rain and cold was making me feel sick... based on 1 hours sleep last night !
250 mile round trip £45 in fuel and £30 for tickets but I have to say it was worth it to See Andy F do a 10.10 at 150mph I think the next quickest whilst I was there was 12 and 125mph... his car is amazing !!!
The pictures I took well... they suck... but here you go

Yeah we just got back and yes it was cold but it was well worth it to see andy f's 9.33. His car is truly awesome but the sound of the RCM car has to be heard to be fully apreciated(harrier jet any1)
Overall cracking day, Can't wait for the big one. My misses took a load of pics will try to get them on later.

Normally tell before you see them because you hear the dump value change 8 times in 2 minutesTrending Topics

just got back aswell. Had a good day out, but my only grumble is. is that there should have been more traders there selling new stuff and not the crap second hand stuff that was on offer. But apart from that everything else was ok

Just got back myself and agree with the above post about traders stands. Maybe one year we may get good weather. Another gripe I had was the spectator positions, especially the handling course you could only see the start and finish unless you had binoculars
. Not sure what else they could have done what with the layout etc.
Overall I enjoyed it, just the weather took the edge off of it.

Just in myself.
There could of been more for the public in a couple of ways,more traders would of been a step in the right direction,maybe some go-carts at the end of the traders for kiddies or a bouncy castle to help keep the little un's happy.
The burger vans werent to badly priced at this event but one or two more wouldhave been better as there was huge que's at all of them.
After all said and done we did the £280ml round trip and enjoyed what was there,I have sympathy for the organisers because i know how hard it is to get a show together like this (i used to help organise an RS Owners Day at Santa-Pod)
It was nice to meet David from API who i will be visiting shortly ;-) and it was also nice to see the awsome Andy F and his car,my god i so want to be a passenger in that.
Shame to see tha chappy who had just managed 500 odd mile in a rebuit engine and for it to let go on the 1/4 mile, hope it dont cost you too much to put right mate,but i feel it will.
Will i go next year.....we will see.

I've just got back, and opened a beer to cure my hangover that's kicking in from Saturday nights drinking session.
I'll get the pics Lisa took in a bit, but first.... Fosters
