I came looking Oli but didn't find you. Found Bilbo's which I don't believe is you but not you sadly.  :sad1:

We are up by the army and just before the land rover experience.

Gutted was waiting to check weather, went to book for Saturday and sold out :sad1:

I'm going Saturday & Sunday. One of the guys who was also going Saturday announced today that he now can't go, what am I meant to do with that ticket?! I would sell it to you but won't be able to get it to you in time unless you leave near the Uxbridge area...

I'll be there on Saturday and will have a hunt for you (but don't normally make it up that far!).

You around Saturday Hedge?

I was there yesterday, my first visit and what an impression it has left on me! I had the best time with girlfriend, Dad, brother and friends. I haven't been to a car show since I was a kid and didn't know what to expect. I was blown away by the staggering amount of unique cars ripping up the track oozing class style and sometimes looniness. I filmed some of the hill climb and rally stage on my measly iPhone
and made a video when i got back.

I will go again next year and the year after that, 10 hours just isn't enough.

I saw a Mk5GolfGTI member leaving the car park (obvious from his rear window sticker) and saw a few Ed30's in the car park. I only got one shot of the Mk1GTI rally car which was stunning as it zipped up the final leg of the climb. Ken Block was the highlight for me, no one works the crowd like him!
