How good was the calypso green XB GT coupe behind the barrier!!!!!!!!!! By far the best looking out of all the GT's I reckon.
The zg, zf fairlane turnout was disappointing. Most of them have probably rusted away.

Same as if there were people damaging cars , then I'm sure there would be people complaining that there was no police presence.

Have a read of what you have written, reading part B first. That is EXACTLY why we won't allow any of those antics on our cruises and events. The XD was clearly out of control and nearly hit people. Would you have thought it so good if it actually cleaned people up ??
I was actually disappointed that the cops took so long. Stupidity like that ends up getting the event closed down.

Personally, I’m glad that they were there. Nothing ruins a great day more than a small group of irresponsible people who think that this sort of behaviour is acceptable. As Bucky said, it not only shows great disrespect to the organisers and the owners of this great venue but it also threatens the whole event. Could you imagine the outcry if someone lost control of their vehicle and injured or killed a innocent bystander?

Excellent day and as per usual, very well run.

Cheers, Danny

I think the mustangs were right handed. There was advertising for the company bringing them in. Maybe they do the conversion? unless they come like that?

There is just something weird about a cop on a push bike, kind of like a fireman on a draught horse. Imagine him in your rear view mirror, PULL over, please Pull over. Looks like a fun day, damn that black el xr is very nice!!

I asked the cop for a dink to my car at one stage, but he thought the handle bars wouldn't of taken the extra weight though. :
