Absolutely cracking day, got a bit burnt actually, but great to see everyone - turnout and catering were top notch too.

Some pictures!

Videos of the drag competition - only got the first bout for each of the entrants.

@GJMHONDA2012 - not the worlds fairest pairing:


@Newkid - Faired a bit better - his win here got him to the semi finals:


@Craig_jdm - made it to the final! Besting a tuned S2000 and a Ferrari to get there:


Top notch catering too:

Blimey, that was a quick post!

Yep, great day. :D

Good to see everyone and hearty cheers to you guys for the organisation (Smooth), the food (Great), and the ride (smooth & Great) :D :D

(For anyone wondering, the red Vauxhall vs. Craig's GT4 in the video had some kind of Saab engine transplant.)
