Weather is forecast looking good for Sunday, should be a great day.

[Martyn Vann - Warwickshire AO]

See you all there tomorrow 

[Robin Parker (Red Spider) - Yorkshire AO]

Hoping to make it tomorrow, my first speed series event. Just one question, is there an entry fee for spectators?

[Marcus Barlow - Show and Events Co-ordinator]

Robin, think its free to spectate.. Ime going over early doors if you want to meet up for the run over?

[Robin Parker (Red Spider) - Yorkshire AO]

Think I'll be later than earlier. Nearly 10 now and I've not got the car out yet.

[Martyn Vann - Warwickshire AO]

Good to see everyone today, hope you all had an enjoyable safe drive home, we did and only got rained on three times   

[Tricky]

Agreed, good turn out of spectators, plenty of rapid westys for entertainment, and even a really really old car taking part that was twice as shiney as Julie's, (she even acknowledged so).

[Onliest Smeg David]

Great to see all the Westie supporters.

Felt like a Westies playing at home meet.

A late write up but I have been unpacking after my holiday. We were tootling along on the way to Blyton when there was a sudden 'oooh' from the drivers seat. Don't worry Glen the car is not broke, I had seen 3 TVR's and an AMG in my mirror. I can't say much more on a public forum, but oh boy, they sounded well, and when we got to Blyton there they were. A friendly bunch from the SYTVRCC (South Yorkshire TVR car club), hope to see you again!

 

 

After that good start we went on to have a whale of a day at Blyton, we met loads of new people and learnt a bit along the way. I picked up one of Terry's wheels and his bonnet with ONE hand. I have to sort of monkey a wheel on by steadying and lifting it with my feet, then wiggling it onto the wheel studs because they are that heavy for me. I hope we were not too distracting by asking questions when you guys are busy, but you know so much and you are so interesting.

 

I hope John (123standish) and his dad  found the day useful, there were certainly lots of different cars to look at and it was lovely to meet you both.

 

I have got loads of pictures and will try and put them in the gallery but here are a couple for you.

 

The competitors lined up.

A great turnout of cars, Tricky and Matt came in their convoy, Marcus and Robin in their convoy, Martyn and Sue travelled for 2 hours! and Ian and Rose(VX220) travelled for....5 minutes to get there. Thank you to everyone for coming.
