eurofest pics sept 2008 what a day!!

[Guest]

well for starters this morning my nephew ran into a telephone pole coming off a roundabout before we even got to morrisons, one of the punto James's was hit and mangled in the morrison's car park, pan366e his engine wasnt ready so cuddn't attend sends his apologies, fullpint made it all the way thru track time with his snapped crank and home again.
the stand was a cracker this year. record number of cars on the stand. if i remember right it was bout 21 or so. we had the pleasure of mark's trike as well attending the stand. awesome bit of kit.
weather held really well. we did have a bit of light showers but plenty of dry spells and a bit of sunshine.
the pints will put our pics here as soon as they are ready. so the rest of you get them on.
thanks for everyone who attendind for helping the day go well and bags of fun had. oh i did forget dan had a wee problem with his car which we sorted with electrical tape and cable ties it worked a treat. let me know how you get on with that dan.
so cheers to a brill day everyone.

Harry S took two beautiful ones of the matmobile on track (shame about the unphotogenic unshaven weirdo driving lol ) on the Castle Combe forum. I'll see if he'll let me repost them here.

[halfpint]

yes defo not got any of u on track.

[Jamie86]

Well another great day at Combe as ever 

Good to catch up with everything, no pics from me didn't wanna get the camera wet!

Still trying to decide which was more entertaining the people falling over in the mud or the people rather over estimating their driving skills   

Cheers to Adz for the co-pilots seat 

I will be going round the track next time no excuses 

[paradise]
