So now that the sun is shining and hopefully everyone is enjoying the Sunday bash, here is a taster of what Graham chose not to publish, and what the morning had to offer... :lol:

But to be fair I travelled 70 miles to the venue rain free, there were 2 showers all pre 10.30am latest that had to be sheltered for, I would say an hours "downtime" maximum.

Considering suitable footwear was always in order (great minds Clive), apart from that I don't think the weather hindered the day at all. I can feel I caught some sun from the afternoon.

I suspect with any rain over night making the mud worse, Saturday may actually have been the choice day. By the time Saturday's cars had all left I imagine the grass to be wrecked.

We had a great day out today. Nice to put a name to a couple of faces - or is it faces to a couple of names :D .
Very pleased with my sprint runs and even managed a 0-60 of 4.70 which concidering I had a suitcase and overnight bag (the wife doesn't do"travelling light") in the Boot was impressive for a standard car. Second run was also against Caney in his TT which added to the fun - although he did beat me.
Excuse- not changing into third quick enough and bouncing off the limiter although I think he would have seen me off anyway :? .

Had a great day yesterday. Had a long chat with a few potential site sponsors, site members, future members, and trade people. Great atmosphere only overshadowed by the mud pools. I think I would have probably made the effort to see more of the show it it didn't involve tramping through mud.

I was the first onsite on Sunday, so quickly gave the 6 a wipe over and headed into the thick of it. High points of the day were:

- Sprints against Dave from the TTShop. Top fella. Dave beat me by default (I think the timing gear screwed up on that run). Happy with my best run - 4.25s to 60 and the 1/4 in 12.776s
- JBS girls shouldn't go without a mention ;)
- Weather was cooking.
- Good to see Mark, Si, and Tony with respective passengers.
- Musty with his wild A6 project - Good uck mate!!!
- Seeing old friends.

Great day out - Thanks to all for their support.
