Wright Guy's this is the last call, we still have one free space left on our club126 stand, all entries need to be in by this Friday as the tickets will be sent out direct by Admin at Brands Hatch next week, this will probably be the best show you will go to this year! The tickets for this event at the gate are £22+  send me your details now :D

 I think Pete's claims are not unreasonable ;D.
 We have been to most classic car show over the years and the Brands Hatch one last year was one of the best we've been to. The fact we could drive our little 126 on the track was the highlight  8)

 We just got our ticket today so big thanks to Pete for sorting it out :thumbup

lol, yeah I'm just pulling his leg!

I was tempted to buy a ticket for Brands Hatch, distance doesn't bother me and it seems this is the event with the most 126s attending this year. But from my experience of classic car shows... I just find them boring after I've walked through the field and seen all the cars in an hour. Heck, the main reason I'm going to the Cumbria microcar one is because we'll be driving about seeing the sights!

On the Fiat Forum the classic panda guys hold a "Panda camp" where all the owners meet up, go for a run and camp out at a different location each year. Would be great if we had something like that.

I genuinely can't wait for this show :D I wanted to go last year but I'ld already started my Resto by then so couldn't. It's the drive around the track that I'm excited about the most  :D :D :D brands is my favourite motor circuit and to drive around the gp circuit - where all the old greats of formula one once drove - would be awesome :D

........speaking of which my ticket arrived today  :D

Had to have a chuckle when I read the rules about the track parade ..... No overtaking, no holding the pack back to sprint off and no more than 30mph. I got nothing to worry about then  :P
