good photo Jonny. I was meant to be going just as a visitor but reports from every where of traffic chaos and 2.5hr queues stopped me .
We got there for 9.45 ish and queued for around 30mins. I know one of the guys with a 930 turbo went home as a steward told him 2.5 hours, that was around 11am. I think the trick is to beat the general public, which opens at 10am. If you're still interested next year let me know. You can come on our stand. Display cars were leaving from 12, so nobody was enforcing the no leave before a certain time rule.

Pulled the orange out of Historit and went for a drive in the sunshine to Woodstock for lunch via Greatworth whereupon another Tangerine LHD ‘72 S appeared as if on cue (new customer for @camperco) but stupidly forgot to take a picture of them nose to tail. Doh!

Was Classics at Prescott, simple name but was a good event, not timed, just have a run up the hill however you want. Let my dad have the 2nd run as tickets were birthday present for him, so wanted him to get back on track for first time since he retired.
Oh and it was yesterday not today, I failed to click submit on the post last night

Removed the remaining parts of the US fuel tank recirculating/venting system !
The black plastic expansion tank will be cleaned/repaired & refitted using new PVC tubing - & taking the opportunity to convert the system to the simpler ROW version (which doesn't 'recirculate' the vapours & hence does away with the charcoal canister ...
