Come off it Rich - that's less than your annual petrol costs in a V12...

Have you been following me?
Ay, I'm not looking forward to this weekends fuel bills... Best part of £200 I reckon! Hope that the weather picks-up soon. We're staying over at the GrassHopper on the Sat night, so might see you bright and early Sun morning.
Rich.

Well - on the whole I think that we were very lucky with the weather!
A very agreeable weekend, marred only slightly by the very heavy traffic getting into Brighton. Muggings here thought that he'd be clever and take a detour to avoid queuing into Rottingdean. Unfortunately, I did not realise that there would be a number of road closures due to an organised protest taking place for 5 hours...DOH!!! As a consequence, we only got to spend about an hour or so in Brighton prior to leaving for the return leg to Northamptonshire!
Some great cars (as always) participating this year. Far too many to mention, but the black Jaguar Sport '89 6.0 V12 XJR-S stood out for me

Yep the weather was great - although again it feels a bit of a rush as you don't want to get left too far behind during the day and don't feel able to linger too long at the stop off, although we did get a couple of hours in there...great to see you Rich, but sorry we didn't get to chew the cud for a little longer...maybe next year! Car made it in one piece which is good...next year I'm really going to try and nab Paul's no 3 right from under him!
