Not bad. Its been better. The Live action arena was a bit of a let down too. Still, I got to drool over a 911 GT3 RS. Mmmmmmm.

The main exhibition area was really good, but the Live action was poor compared to last year and only lasted 45 minutes of which half of it was the 300ZXs burning rubber.

Overall a good day out and given me several upgarde plans

I really enjoyed it, learnt lots of new stuff, saw tons of gorgeous cars, and got to chat to other cliosport friends

Shouldve gone the the 6pm live action arena. 2hrs of stock car racing.

Thought we were all gonna die from carbon monoxide poisoning. Rest of the day was pretty top though.

I went and it was excellent. Tiff Needell was better at presenting the Live show, than that daft bint last year (Jo Guest). Bit shorter than it should have been, but good all the same. Let down was the mahoosive queue to see the Ferrari stand, which I couldnt be arsed waiting in.

However it wasnt all bad as the girls in their lycra body suits were spectacular

The Ferrari stand had by far the best looking women. Although I also saw Jakki Degg there and she was damn fine!

The show was alright although there seemed to be an influx of Alloy Wheel stands this year getting in the way. I always like having a nose around the brake, gearbox etc specialists stands cos theyre always pretty informative. I didnt go to the Live Show as its usually the same each year. I did see quite a bit of the display by the Caterhams at the end of one of the Halls where they were sliding around a small marked out course. Ive never seen one driven in anger before and I couldnt believe the way they turn in! Just amazingly sharp. Got a good picture of one of the guys sliding it around as well.

Also saw Petter Solberg on the Subaru stand as well. Hes not a tall chap but I guess thats to be expected. Also, his wife is FIT. Bastid!
