Who's Thinking about Pistonfest?

[wendyg]

I have 25th- 28th May marked off on the calendar, coz I've always wanted to go to PF, but who else is planning/considering going?

Those who have been before, what is it like, is it worth it, any advice?

I've been to every one and will be there at PF07 with Carole and my lads. Byff is planning on being there and I expect Mawds will be there too. Basic camping event like BB&T but with more people. Ted has handed over the reins to PHer Galick, see thread

Im planning on going again this year.... last years was such a good laugh, i can't wait.

however it is a fair bit later in the calender this year, and so will have to wait and see what the exam timetable is like, and see if uni will let me have a little fun.

I wouldn't miss this event for anything now. Pistonfest and BB&T are like religous pilgrimages for those that worship the god of Horsepower (oh yes, and the god of beer, god of partying and the god of camping out in a freezing cold field)

I'm going this year, can't wait

I should say so...might bring a souped up mini instead though but will certainly be bringing the usual beer and barbeque food


I rate BB&T as the best event I went to last year (except for getting a face full of sharp ice) the run out was awesome, the beer, the scenery, the conversation, the buggering about trying to put the tent up etc

I thank you sir. This year BB&T is back at Cadwell Park for the TVRCC Challenge. I have a Saturday road run planned too with a visit to an ice cream parlour.

which is great news, cadwell is my favourite circuit so although there's fairly bland scenery there is a stonking racetrack so i'm not complaining!

i'm thinking about investing in a large stick this year to prod the bonfire with...you see, i'll be over 25 by then and officially an old giffer. might even bring my shooting jacket and some wellies to complete the look

Ooo you old man you


...and no mention of the service interval on an EVO or the size of Satch's log or how not to donut a Beetle. Minimax's wellies may go down well though; they should burn quite well on my gigantic BBQ

[andymaserati]

BB&T was the best event of 2006 i think
and i do look forward to this years (although im skeptical as to whether it will be as good at cadwell)

[andymaserati]

anyone fancy bribing the manchester university exam board for me btw... so i can attend pistonfest?

I saw that and thought, good, Charlie could do with a haircut usually.

New jumper this year?
