Don't think so, as might be working.

Would like to go . . . but it looks like the only other show I'll be at in Exeter.

Well, I went, last minute thing as the opportunity arose and it's only 30 mins drive for me.

Not entirely sure what to make of it to be honest. Can see the obvious appeal for those driving on the track all day, great fun I'm sure. Got a couple of hundred pics to upload to the site so was good on that front. I guess there was about 60 cars in the pit area (around 25 manufacturers at a guess) and about another 100 or so cars parked up in the parking area to have a look at.

Quite expensive at £10 to get in but I'd imagine thats more Brands Hatch than anything else, too many 7 style cars (as you would expect) to make it a particularly interesting and varied event, I think this is something that will need to be worked on if these events are to become popular, I saw it as a niche event in a niche market which limits it's appeal greatly and this was reflected in the turnout, not bad but I doubt there was more than a few hundred people there all day.

Highlight for me though was this GP style creation, designed and built from scratch



Well done that man

John

Hi Ferg, yes could've/should've done but was a last minute decision to go. Maybe I should get some 'Madabout' T-shirts made up that identifies everyone...
