Just returned from a fantastic day out, Air Displays, Drive an Artic, Bikes, Tanks, Helicopters cheap food (Thank you ASDA)and track events for Car Clubs, Vipers put up a good show, quite a few petrol head car clubs in attendance, only problem just 2 Corvettes represented, which was a bit disappointing for crowd but hey Richard (c5ragtop) and I never stopped so we have smiles ear to ear. Let’s hope next year we can make an outstanding show and give Viper boys run for money (Of course in the nicest way).

PS. I only managed 171mph down long straight (Passenger was impressed though)

A big Thanks to Viper Paul for arranging this for us.

Also thanks to Gary for coming along and supporting us even though his car is broken.

Anyway a Pic the lone Rangers;

Well done Mr and Mrs TEKWIZ and C5RAGTOP for putting up a Vette show.

Would have been better with some more Vettes.

It was a good day and I am sure everyone would have enjoyed it.

Thanks TEKWIZ for the passenger run and hopefully my car will be fixed for the Fairmile BBQ.

It was pretty cool, with a nice and relaxed atmosphere again, though makes you think with all this health and safety nonsense how long these events will be allowed to continue.

The aircraft were amazingly close to the pit lane coming towards you at certain parts of the display where lots gathered to watch, and taking novice passenger for rides at 190mph created a bit of discussion amongst our ranks

Yep, sorry about that no turbo so no go

Spent the day painting the spare bedroom.........working on the theory the more I do to the house whilst the car is broke the more time I will have to enjoy it once it's fixed!

A big big big thanks you to the two lone gunmen in the Corvettes......they looked and sounded great better even than a Viper.....must be something about two extra cylinders makes us sound like a big F1 car.

We had a great day and I hope to receive a DVD which was professionally shot for all who attended, I will copy and send one out to all

Thanks again from me and 100 terminally ill children. we even got a mention on radio 2 by Johnny Walker, well one very fast Viper did and they even played her theme tune.

PS 165 was quite fast enough in the Mamba with the roof off.
