Looking forward to it. Right near the end of my final design project at uni so I'll try to make it over for a bit.
I could potentially polish up the alfa... fit the new wheels... "modify" the exhaust for the start ups... I think I would be severely outclassed biggrin
Seriously though it's a fantastic day and I look forward it!

They'll be fitted by then. Pay day tomorrow so worst case I'll get the local garage to fit them.

Won't be bothering this year, same cars each year with hardly any of them cleaned to show standard and a distinct lack or hyper cars.

That sounds a lot more moany then intended, I'll probably just go every other year.

Aye, the cars don't seem to vary too much year on year at the moment. It feels a little as though it's losing momentum for 'headline' cars, and now that I have a nipper in tow I think I'm going to have to save my 'allowed out' days for other events!

It's Bristol we're talking here, not London or Dubai.

There was a good selection of F cars last year not hyper I guess and they did stuff us down a side street but still had a brill day. This part of Bristol has a lot of character and plenty to see with the market stalls and the like not just metal and rubber.

Agreed, there were two f430s including yours, probably about 3 or 4 360s, some classic ferraris, lots of maseratis, fiats, alfas and a wealth of other cars (and bikes).

Petrolpat what time have you guys been asked to arrive at the venue? It'd be nice to get a video of the cars coming in

Hi Mike, Last year I was a marshal so was down town far to early o'clock, 6:30 I think. Having said that you do get to see most arrive. Will be doing the same this year all being well.

Bristol has a few Supercars and Hyper cars tucked away even if you don't see them let alone the south west.

Oh my.. 6:30 is no time for a man like me LOL. I will settle for filming some cars leaving the event instead!

See you all there!

The old man's Skoda has been less reliable than my Alfa since I got it... and isn't your diesel shopping trolley always broken too? biggrin

And anyway, the ones that don't start in the morning won't get to Bristol, thus preventing the build up of a critical mass of temperamentality.
