I was driving by mondello yesterday and heard the distinctive sound of throttle bodies.
A quick google said it was the retro stock track day.
I was on the way to collect a toolbox from Halfords for the young lad so me and him jumped out and send the rest on their way. "collect us about 5"!!!!

Twice yesterday owners of cars came over and asked if my little lad wanted to get in and anyone there was friendly and sound. Big thumbs up for these guys.
They have two a year and some cool stuff does be out with a genuine good bunch of lads, certainly all I've met anyway.

Everyone likes pics, please bear in mind these are from my phone and in general I'll have my head stuck under a bonnet and dont really care about pics (I'm a lad who's been to may shows and have about 20 photo's in total and most of them are of Richard Burns cars (Autosport exhibition one year)

The day is a show and a track day with drift sessions also (these bucks can pedal).
Huge mix of cars from new ST fiesta's to MK1 escorts to a BTCC Sierra.

Any way any questions ask.

The Drift academy was there, took a few pics, boring enough but in case anyone is thinking of it.








Going going gone......

These are the pics from the paddock and not so much the show stuff.

Martin Tracey's white Sierra

Martin's black one "the one"

Then there was a track session

Now this is an unasuming looking yoke right?
Then I spotted a set of rally slicks on the back and thought "this needs a closer look".

Que for the drift session.
Some lovely yokes and properly sorted and driven well.

Ronan's old car was there too.

One lonely soldier there........

Thanks for posting, great pics.

I was planning on going myself yesterday afternoon but witnessed a tree fall on a car in front of me a couple of miles from my house, it was dangerously windy, luckily they were ok, just a bit shaken, needless to say I was a bit spooked after that and ended up parking up for the day.

You're too modest with your view on your pic taking skills or was junior behind the camera lol

Looks like a 300TD in the Merc, I'd say it's mental, pick of it on the rolling road on the Retrostock FB page.

I walked by 3 times and nobody was there. Looked well made too at a quick glance.

I kept looking for the like button on the pics.

Great range of machinery.
