baser999 Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 Is anyone going this weekend - I got tickets for the Sunday. May be stopping over at my sons in Abingdon on Saturday night so if there is anyone else going could perhaps meet somewhere and run up together.

badboy baza Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 Hi Barry yes we are attending Sunday you have our mob No give us a call[Y]
baser999 Posted July 10, 2007 Author Posted July 10, 2007 Hi Barry yes we are attending Sunday you have our mob No give us a call[Y] Will be in touch when I've got my own arrangements sorted.
baser999 Posted July 14, 2007 Author Posted July 14, 2007 Aiming to be there for around 9:30 in a hope to get parked in the Scooby section, so leaving my sons in Abingdon (J8 of the M40) around 8:45. Probably easiest if we catch up at Prodrive isn't it?
baser999 Posted July 16, 2007 Author Posted July 16, 2007 Good day at Prodrive - looks as if this was a better day than Ian and Andy had at Honda. Arrived about 9:30 and managed to get parked up in the dedicated Subaru area along with probably 100 others, still it beat being parked in the muddy field next door lol. Although there were clearly a lot there it didn't seem that busy as it covers a large area with a lot of the workshops open as well as the outdoor activities. Demonstrations by a SWRT pit crew changing a gearbox in less than 6 minutes, the Aston Martin LeMans winning team changing the wheels on the DBR009 in around 12 seconds and then Johnny Herbert doing donuts in it! The noise that car makes is awesome. First time I've see him drive anything and finish lol. He'd apparently given up his day especially and flown in from Monaco to take part in these demos and sign autographs [|-)] Now thats what I'd call a real hero lol. There were also SWRT cars on display in various stages of being prepared for rally, several of the Aston Martins as well as all the workshop stuff. Looks like you should have gone to Prodrive Ian ps there were also burgers, hotdogs etc etc My sons taken some decent photos albeit on his phone and will email them over to me. Question......how do I then transfer them into this thread? If its easy enough to explain could someone please do so, failing that someone please pm me their personal email address and I'll forward it to you to do. Thanx.
granby Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 What time did you leave Barry as i saw a blue classic stuck in the traffic for junction 8 on the M40 about 3:20
baser999 Posted July 16, 2007 Author Posted July 16, 2007 What time did you leave Barry as i saw a blue classic stuck in the traffic for junction 8 on the M40 about 3:20 Probably was me and two of my lads as we'd left about 3 and went back to Abingdon - thought we'd got off at J9 though?
baser999 Posted July 16, 2007 Author Posted July 16, 2007 Might of been, it was the junction for Oxford Spotted [Y] - it was J9 for Oxford. We were going back to Christophers in Abingdon. To save getting up at some god forsaken time this morning and picking him up on the way we stopped at his last night and didn't have to leave until 9.
granby Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 There was in fact another classic just like yours a couple of miles up the road which i thought was you until i spotted the reg, then as i went past the Oxford junction i just spotted yours, seemed a lot of traffic for Oxford!!!
