Some of you may have heard about this one already.

I'm putting on a performance car show as part of the Kintore Summer Festival on Saturday June 3rd.

The idea is that we'll have a selection of cars (I'd like a good variety if possible) on display for about an hour or so (maximium of 12 cars), allowing people to look around them, ask questions etc.

Then, in exchange for donations to charity (I'll print tickets/receipts etc), members of the public can go for a short 5 minute passenger ride in the car of their choice around the town. Everything will be done at strictly speed limits and below, so there will be no showing off of driving skills, people taking risks etc. It's just to give people the chance to say that they were a passenger in X, Y or Z at the weekend, get some photos taken etc.

We'll do this for another hour or so, depending on demand.

I'm looking for a few volunteers to have their cars as part of this show.

a) It won't cost you anything to take part

b) You'll be helping to raise money for charity (most likely Northsound Radio's Cash for Kids appeal)

c) There is a chance you might get some free food (nearby BBQ)

d) You must be willing to take passengers out if requested.

e) You'll potentially make a lot of people very happy indeed!

I live just 5 minutes walk from where the show will be taking place, and can offer people facilities to wash/dry their cars etc if wanted, and also as a place to meet up before/after.

Interested, or know anyone with a performance car who might be interested, then please send me an email on john@sidc.co.uk

So far I've got a few Subaru's, Elise, Exige, 340R (not confirmed yet), plus possibly a 911, TVR Tuscan and a Caterham.

Dealer's cars are more than welcome, and no problems about having cars that are up for sale also.

Cheers

John
