Sadly that car is no more as he rolled it big time at the end of the day . So i have read, he crossed the finish line at 124mph then lost the back end. He rolled it 4 times. He managed to get out and only suffered a scratch to one arm and a few bruises thankfully.

The land rover is the car of the show for me. It really is lovely. I know a bloke with a Series I that he keeps uncovered, without a roof in his woods. It has been used for hunting there for at least 25 years and never fails to work. |

Well, here are a few of our pics, now we have our new computer up and running. Again, Retro was a blast, top cars and top people from the club. A pleasure to meet and talk to you all. Sadly we weren't feeling too well on the Saturday night so missed out on the homebrew type shenanigans this year. Mind you, probably just as well..... (get well soon Phil!) After the Saturday night downpour, we waited until the campsite was a bit less like a quagmire and moved towards the stand. It didn't take long to find! ![]() The stand went on... ![]() and on... ![]() and on... ![]() and on... ![]() Blimey, what a turnout! Hats off! So, the ol' Brownmobile was given a quick shine up. (Was glad I had the rear quarter damage properly done and the parking dings taken out. The quality of 190s on the stand this year was outstanding. Toff's gorgeous 2.6, Andy's mint pre facelift, Martin's Brabus and a more beautiful Cossies than you could shake a stick at!) ![]() (That's myself, Toff 190 and TimW in the pic for those who like to put names to faces!) ![]() (Yep, for some reason, that's me doing strange "brum brum" invisible steering wheel actions!) More views of the stand.... ![]() (Boss man Steve's amazing bonnet art!) ![]() ![]() ![]() (Oops! Sorry Hiten, looks like you didn't get out of shot quick enough! ) ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() (This car is easily one of my faves, Tim's manual sportline. This car gets more original and mint every time I see it. Just lovely.) ![]() (Whoops Tim, looks like the wife was lying when she said you wouldn't be in this shot! )We knew Robbie would come up with something special with TYW this year. He didn't disappoint.... ![]() But I wasn't prepared for the sight of Aaron's car! Superb! ![]() ![]() ![]() This was very possibly the star of the stand for most of us, Martin's fantastic Brabus 3.6 24-valve engined monster. I had the pleasure of following this car all the way from Tibshelf to the Pod! A few members decided to have a go at the handling course. ![]() Sadly this is as far as I got. Guess who forgot to bring his driving licence? Doh! So, it was up to Hot Fuzz in his mega tidy 'kitted '87 and Tim in his lovely sportline to fly the flag for the 8 valvers... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Great entertainment came from Jeremy and Steve in their Silver 16vs ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Finally, some random photos of stuff that caught our eye. Personally if I could have gone home with the Le Mans Green Mk1 Escort GT on Lotus steels or the Orange Hillman Avenger Tiger, I'd have been a happy man... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This thing was unbelievable. About the size of a football pitch and pulled 11 second quarters!!! ![]() ![]() So there we go , a top weekend. So much to see and drool over. Cheers to the missus for taking many of the pics. See ya all next year! Edited by AndyBoroFC, Fri Jul 24, 2009 10:01 pm.
