HOW could anyone miss this on DDK?
Could get the 911 taxed and drive down in that to run Niel's bro's gearbox rebuild in!

Got to be worth a shilling in the 'DDK 10K new target' from everyone who attends?
Just a thought. :)

Gutted........
I'll be at a wedding in Orkney!

Looks like I'm destined not to see it after all this time. I can't believe it.

Have a great day Mike!

Regards
Mike

Definitly coming down to see this one, will even bring a 35mm film camera for it!
Me and Mrs Hillclimber will be there! :bounce:

You will need a lot of 911 parking spaces....

Hope you have finished the book we have requested! :wink:

be great to see you Viv, and everyone else who has signed up. Thanks all, it's going to be a great day.

Would like to make coming as informal as we can so no set plan for charity donations, perhaps we'll
put a bucket by the door for loose change or something like that. Steve's idea of passenger rides is
a little optimistic, it's supposed to be off to Essen the next day, so we'll be starting it up and running
the engine and risk one demonstration run, but that's about it for the time being, hope you understand.

For those that don't know Neil's workshop at BS Motorsport is on Westcott Venture Park near Aylesbury
it's an interesting site as it's an old airfield that was Britain's missile testing site during the cold war, lot's
of old buildings and test towers from those day's still remain. All private land and plenty of parking.
cheers, Mike.
