donnington kit car show

[neilwillis]

Stu's always been a little comfort oriented - I bet he had his slippers with him too!

I have to agree to an extent about the poor standard of the show.   Is it me, or are all the shows slowly becoming more mediocre?   The way I see things is that we can still use shows as an excuse for a get together, if nothing else.  

The Derby/Notts guys and Garry Bunn in particular did the club proud by setting things up as usual, they were there Friday evening, pitching the tent until after dark.   A little appreciation for their hard work wouldn't go amiss.  They get my thanks anyway.

I think part of the problem this year for the low key Donington was the late date.   I hope that will not become a regular thing, cuz I am sure it'd kill it completely.

It was good to see people from all parts of the UK again, and I for one think any show where we get together, have a laugh (mainly from listening to Martini Mike's phone messages) and kick a few tyres isn't such a bad thing.

Or were you all just there to take a look at the manufacturers stands?

First one i've missed since 1997, lloks like I haven't lost much. No Westfield stand, no Yorkshire Disco ,no Cateringvans to hide - not really much point was there. Lets hope it's back at its proper date next year.

Mark thanks for lending our kid your lid I amazed we found one to fit him

No problems unless you are calling me a big ed!!

It felt like I spent most of the day lending various tools out. I thought Westfields were reliable?

And before anyone asks why I had a toolbox in the ?Car I was sprinting at Cadwell the previous day, driving Darlington Cadwell-Sprint, Donnington, and home and wasn't going to push my luck

[Mark Stanton]

[stu999]

because the tintop and caravan

Getting soft in yer old age stu              

Sadly, the tyres on the 'proper' car are currently more suitable for racetracks than they are road use, but as I am determined to get every last drip of goodness out of tyres, I wasnt going to fit new ones *just* for Donny. Especially with a trackday at Anglesey 'just round the corner'.

A bit peeved, as the weather had been   all weekend, especially for mid October...

Besides, you can carry more Stella in a wobble box
