cheers guys. im quite happy with most of the ones i got. a few im a little disappointed with a few but i got a better keep rate than normal smile

yes this was on the Sunday. the show was shockingly quiet on Saturday according to everyone i spoke too.
i personally had a good day and avoided ending up red like a lobster lol. (i was there from 8am to 4.45pm ish).

dobblerdave i have added another one of yours to my album although its quite similar really. i quite liked your car! (not normally a jap guy).

The marketing was poor
I live up the road, I shop at Tesco's opposite the racecourse
I saw no adverts, nothing in the local paper, no signage in advance at the racecourse.
Nothing on Pistonheads, nothing on facebook, no links to other motoring groups
I didnt even know it had become a 2 day event

I am now worried about Pentille Fest of Motoring, same organisor. Fingers crossed

i agree it has never been marketed that well. i only knew about it because i went with a club that were showing.
they didnt plan it very well though as saturday was japfest so thats part of the reason why it was so quiet i think.
it does have a fb page.

if im honest i have never heard of pentille fest of motoring? lol!
