    No your not Ian, I read it that our cars will be ok on the stand, just not going up the hill.....though I would have imagined that people would want to see cars like Colin's running up the hill.

    You can have later model's on the stand , there is just a small bit of gripping about later model cars running the hill, but reading the discussion and the pull Claymore's car has had over the last few yrs there i think the 850's will squeeze the hill i hope.

    Cheers Jim.... There is no way they would stop Colin from running as he is such a crowd puller and it was ok previous years... bit of a contradiction if they stop him now...

    No point being on the stand, if you can't go up the hill.
