Friday
After weeks
of plugin this event the time came to go. With my cavy safely parked
up at home I headed off to the meeting point in buzz's car. After
a steady drive to the meeting point we waited for our mini convoy
to arrive. After 5 minutes all the cars arrived, the convoy consisted
of Buzz, Lofty, Ben, Shane Northy and Jaques. After a steady drive
down with a few stops we arrived at our home for the next 2 nights.
We set our
tents up and started to have a look around most of the stands weren't
up but the ecosse stand was looking excellent as always. A few beers
later we headed over to McDonalds to see what was going off. The
burnout action was good but we were all a bit miffed off at the
fact that people were kicking cars if they didn't do a burnout.
Saturday
Early start,
got to McDonalds for some food then went back to the show ground
to set the stand up. Most were showing on the Vauxhall Sport Stand,
after a wash and a polish the cars were looking great. The weather
stayed good but it was always a bit cold, the cars got a lot of
attention with a few cards being left on the windows and a few interviews
with total Vauxhall. Once the visitors started to leave the cars
got parked up in the camp ground and the beer came out. A visit
to the adult channel bar was on the cards and was a interesting
watch.
Sunday
Woke up
late, washed and polished the cars again and tried to keep awake
with a very, very, very bad hangover! Lots more interest in the
cars so decided to turn ps2 on in buzz's car and b4 i new it 30
people were watching me!
All in all
a very good weekend with lots to see and lots to do, two people
from cmr got features in magazines and one got a request for there
car to go to max power live.
