If I make this one it'll be three years in a row. I'm not sure if I'll make it in a Volvo, so I'll be parked on the road, but it is a great venue for a softies vs Essex meet.....??

Pick your side and see who can get the most cars??

Rain is good for you, it'll make you grow.

It also stops the Shiny Car Brigade (Which I am a fully paid up member of .. ) from QD'ing their cars as soon as they get there, and then every hour after that ... !

Good meet today, if a little damp. We outnumbered the Saabs 15-3 lol. Lots of fairweather drivers bailed out from the looks of it.
Nice to meet Charlesboya Nice BTCC style car that.
Black Dog's P3 is rather lovely too and there was some interesting fella with a 740 low-rider with hydro-suspension we found quite entertaining :D
