I have been to this in the past, but rubbing shoulders with the great unwashed.
The Festival of Transport is on in Luton this Sunday and I always attend with my boy. :y

If it stays dry, the jet car and Red Victor usually have a run or two down the strip. May get to see one or two of you there

Unless I'm much mistaken, last year was 20 quid for unlimited runs. Something like that.

My PV ticket arrived this morning. See you there!

For most Billing dwellers, PVS is a little too much 'tyre burning', whereas for most PVS attendees, Billing can seem very pedestrian. I guess it's the (age influenced) difference of interest between quarter mile strip streaking and show and shine detailing. Not to say that the pair are mutually exclusive, but some non-Vauxhall shows manage an excellent balance of the two - Ford Fair springs to mind as an absolutely excellent day out in that respect. Providing that you like Blue Ovals, that is!  ;D

I took a fair few photos, I'll post 'em up as soon as I get a chance. Nice to meet Paul in person and chew the fat with fellow Griffin enthusiasts. A shame that Bruce's Lotus Carlton suffered a significant amount of front-end damage as it came into contact with a deer on its way to the Costa del Pod!

An even bigger turnout of display cars than last year (which was even bigger than the year before). Some real crackers in attendance, and the weather was perfect for it :)

Next stop, Billing!  :y

Are you a member of the ABS forum? Not sure this image will show without logging in. You can just about make out the comedy air scoop on the bonnet. Made a helluva racket:
