may have to see nearer the day, lots going on this year, do go to quite a lot of the lotus cup meets. also not that far from me.keep you posted

Yep, Busy year and lots to do, so all good. Well we will be going for the weekend, so we will see whoever, whenever

Looks like a great weekend, bargain price as well, better get myself booked in for it.

Tim.

All being well Russ will be there with VVR and so of course Martin Steve and Co will be along.
It should be a great weekend.

looks like we'll be there too

We've got an F1 car demonstrating on the day too. Should be the type 72.

Brilliant...will look forward to that, the sound and sight of a 72 is fabulous...for those who haven't got it, order a copy of 'If you're not winning you're not trying' DVD from CTL, it has Emerson Fittipaldi going up the Goodwood hill in his 72.... its awesome it completely stopped the show when we showed the DVD at the Classic Motor Show at the NEC, we ran it every hour and the visitors were ten deep in the aisles watching it, proper F1 cars as they used to be.

Cheers, Tim

Funily enough the Type 72 that we're taking is the car that Emerson drove. So lots of history!

We always show that DVD at every show and people just love it.

Below is some information about the DVD.
A collector’s edition of this famous 1973 documentary, join Colin and the Team as they win seven Grand Prix
and their sixth World Championship. Team members including Colin Chapman were miked up so that some fascinating behind the scenes moments were captured.

The newest edition includes an introduction from Clive Chapman, a close look at the Lotus 72 and recent on-board and track-side footage as Emerson Fittipaldi returns to the car in 2005.

It really is a must-see for any true Lotus enthusiats!

It looks like i will have to buy this DVD.

But will i be allowed to show this at the monthly meet could be a good place to take some orders as well.

Thanks Eddie King.
