Show and location looks very fitting. Some very nice motors on display in those pics. Although the show was supposed to be a one off it seems like a shame not to use it again at some point.

Nice vibe of the pics Marc. As you say the people are part of the show too.

I agree, it would be a shame not to use it again. The only problem I can foresee is the lack of available space. Practically every inch of the dock was used yesterday. There are other parking lots in the Science Park so with any luck they'll be able to secure one or more of them for overflow space and allow more people to attend. It is for charity after all, so the more they can squeeze in the better all round.

Absolutely great snaps there Marc, you must of caught every minute of the show lol, was great seeing the TT rolling home yesterday, such a credit to you


Thanks! I think there's more to these shows that just the cars, so I always like to capture the people too. Was that you in the brown\gold\bronze [delete as appropriate!] A4 that I passed around Newry? If it was, then I nearly shat myself when you pulled to the left lane and put on your hazards - I thought you'd spotted a speed trap!

Yea Marc that was me lol, just seen your TT in the rear view and have to give ya the hazards, as you said it's great going to shows more so to see the people you meet on the Internet etc, great show and great people, had a smashing day

It is only stalking if she knows she's being followed! :D

The car snaps were only a decoy to blend in while sneaking up on them!

Sorry for not recognising you - I wasn't aware you had changed the colour of the car. Last time I saw it it was black, wasn't it?

The colour is pretty nice. Is that the Porsche brown?

Does it add much to the stability of the car through the corners?
