Good to meet some new faces today and the old ones again :happy2:.Was bloomin hot today as well.
Highlights for me today were finding out that Newton Commercial have finished the MKII Golf carpets, getting to sit in all the MK6's & Roccos, buying more detailing products(great serv from autoperfection again) had some good chats with VW Racing  :happy2: to RR for introducing me to one of their guys :happy2:.really liked the sun visors that were on Hedge's Ed30 def going to get a set of them. Phil's carbon wrap has convinced me to get some done to. 
Its official I hate the M1 and crazy zigzagging bikers.

What a time I had!!  :jumpmove:

Camping over with Joe, Jay, Steph, Kim and Adam was hilarious, it got a bit silly after a few too many beers and a rave tent got mixed into the equation!  :signLOL:

Great to see all the usual faces and meet a few new ones  :happy2:

I lost my strip virginity today and I gotta say im hooked! I had the car revo'd whilst down there and the way it performed on the strip made my day. Im gonna sound like im blowing my own trumpet here but I need to share my excitement!

My first run I came up against an R32 Turbo from the JBS stable. I managed to leave him off the start and he never caught up, I won that one by about four car legnths! 

Times (Run 1)

0-60 - 4.92 secs
1/4 Mile - 13.497 secs

My second run was the worst of the day, car bogged BIG TIME on the line and the Seat something or other I was racing left me. I
managed to have him by the end of the 1/4 mile.

Times (Run 2)

0-60 - 5.82 secs
1/4 Mile - 14.435 secs

My last run saw me coming up an RS6 Avant that had been revo'd, exhaust, intake etc etc. I had already conceeded defeat on the line. I managed to get a good start using launch control as did he. For some reason or other I left him straight away gaining about two car legnths. It stayed like that until the last few seconds of the run where he started to gain a little, I still managed to pip him by a car legnth, I could not believe it!  :evilgrin:

Times (Run 3)

0-60 - 4.72
1/4 Mile - 13.284

I liked the car Tom I would keep the alloys as they are :happy2: Revo seems to be the future nothing better than a new map and some 1/4 mile sprints.

Oh god, my best mate spent over £400 on that stand today, full carpet set, door cards and leather bits for his MK1, and then a rear screen and seals at Crazy Quiffs!

Wow the weather was hot hot hot!  I checked the weather and they all said rain so I wore a jacket and jeans...big mistake as I'm still red from heat exhaustion!

It was a very good show, my only criticism is that the club stands were in a silly place behind the trade stands...once you got onto the airfield you kinda forgot about the club cars!

What bargains did you all get?  I got a complete "smokers pack" ashtray assembly with a mesh type surround and lid for £5 and a brand new Votex rear valance for £70.

And what was everyones car of the show?  I was torn between a very nice early white MK1 Golf and a blue MK1 Derby.  I've wanted a Derby for years, and that one fuelled my passion even more!
