Curborough Breakfast Meet - Saturday 15th April

[Rob Hunter - Club Secretary]

Hi,

 

A few of us are heading to the Curborough Sprint Course (Netherstowe Ln, Lichfield WS13 8EJ) tomorrow morning for the Shadow Sport Track Cars and Coffee meet. There is normally a good selection of interesting cars at the meet or on track.

We will aim to land for 10am and stay for a couple of hours. Spectators are free as usual and the cafe will be open for a brews and butties.

 

For those travelling that way, we will do a pre-meet and convoy from the Swadlincote Halfords (DE11 8JU) at about 915am for a 930am depart.

 

As @Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative  is unable to do a meet this weekend I may also organise a Peaks breakfast meet on Sunday for those interested 👍

The local Halfords had a bit of a car show on this morning 😂

 

4 Westies and Paul's lovely VX220 Turbo 👌

 

It was great to see Colin back out after the recent gearbox swap you may have seen on YouTube, the car seems to be running really well now.

 

 

After a good catch up and a chat about all things cars (including about Paul's Ford Model T and his recent run out to the Shuttleworth Collection) we headed south west through the lanes to Curborough.

 

We always seem to get a great turnout for our breakfast meets here. It's a real hidden gem with free spectating, a big car park, a good value cafe, public access to the paddock and a real mix of interesting cars.

 

 

 

 

The five of us landed and found a dry spot to park up and were quickly followed by Ash in his narrow body car. Then a few minutes later a Westfield I didn't recognise.... this turned out to be Martyn who had brought his son all the way from Coventry, great to meet you today!

 

A little while later Lee and his wife landed in the Megablade and then the jet setting Tim (just back from the US) arrived making a total of 8 Westfields and the VX220! A stunning line up.

 

Some unusual cars in the car park too....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Having not seen Ash's car for a while we spotted some recent upgrades...

 

Sexy new LED lights 😍

 

 

A fun morning, now what to do tomorrow!? 😂
