A huge thanks to our new Chairman @Hedley Bennett (HB46443) - Club Chairman for supporting this new event, a sort of small version of Malvern where all varieties of kit cars are encouraged to get together and rejoice in our choice of hobby.

The Kit Car Show

 

 

 

Thanks to @Jakejmagee for the extra photo's. When I said a 'small' version of Malvern, I did mean small, so don't laugh but come and join us next year to make it biiiiiiiig.

 

@Greenstreak-Andy D bought out his newly refurbished car to show off to us. A lot of hard work and money has been spent after his unfortunate accident a year ago today. This goes to show just what can be done, I think the interior is the same and so is the engine. Andy has done a great job and his attention to detail shows.

 

 

 

The Westfield's came out in force of course, 11 cars including Jake's Tiger

 

 

The Marlin's had a good turn out, some were local (Ashbourne and Bakewell) and others had come from Leeds and even Somerset, so well done to them. A lovely, friendly and cheerful bunch.

 

 

We get treated like royalty here with our reserved parking spots underneath the sign, I know I know, we are weird, I'll take that.

As usual we get itchy feet and soon take off onto the wonderful surrounding roads in search of food. We had a great, steady convoy up to the Traveller's Rest at Bradwell where we always get well fed.

Blimey, well fed! I had been eating half an hour and still not made a dent in my plate, I reckon that I will be ok for food now until 3 weeks on Thursday. Poor Lee had to have a sleep halfway through his dinner it was that big.

 

 

After lunch we took off to The Pavillion, Baslow for cake, oh hilarious, I just had a pot of tea I can assure you. No names, but some people could actually fit cake in

I don't know where they get their ideas from......the boys ddecided to have a game of something that looked nothing like cricket

 

 

 

The ball ended up here, of course it did...

 

 

A hilarious day out, very much good fun, what a club, what great cars to have in such a wonderful place xxx
