Not a problem Craig. Pics are to be shared

Little disappointed in my scores. Pretty low for the paint considering you can see your reflection in the finish.

Expected a low score on the trim as it is hardly traditional.

Ah well, the beer was good afterwards

Yep, beer is always good.

Just kicking myself I had to work, would have loved to have been there.

I certainly thought your scores were low as well, but with shows it always comes down to luck and personal preference. What appeals to one judge, may not appeal to another. On a different day, you could have done much better. But you already know all this.

Anyway, haven't you got enough trophies yet. You've certainly won some great shows.

Quality of judges Scott found was impressive. I would really love for this to get bigger and better each year. Our club needs a dedicated Show & Shine, to balance all the racing and other events.

Thanks for the photos.

Looking forward to the club xmas party this weekend. 40 rooms booked and 77 people attending, a record attendance.

And who in the Club is on their own looking for someone to share their bed i.e. 40 rooms and 77 bodies

Will see you there.

I am hopefully teeing up a similar event for the middle of the year at Whepstead Manor at Wellington Point - Great venue

and hopefully it will include a beer tent!

The owner was a keen rally driver in South Africa and is an enthusiast of Cobras.

Waiting on El Presidento to give me a firm date and then I can firm up the booking.

Not sure on whether to judge the cars or just let there be a peoples choice for say a Cobra, GT40 and other.

We'll see.

Now that's a loaded question. Not everyone drives their Cobra to the xmas party, but I would expect to get around 20 cars - Cobra's & Gt40's.

I wonder why you are asking.

Is it because we are invading your home turf. Are you coming?
