Midlands meet at Race & Retro Show 23/02/13

[Gixerboy]

I'm attending the Race & Retro Show at Stoneleigh Showground Warks,

Went last year & it was a great Event, (Saw JK with his SWB Audi Quattro)

Anyone interested in a Midlands Maserati Meeting?
If we get enough interest we can get exhibitor parking in the Centre Area ?

Let me know your thoughts
Cheers

Dave

Would have been nice to get to this as it's not too far away, the weather's looking pretty grim mind you, but sadly I'm otherwise booked this weekend.

Hope it's a good show and enjoyable for those that do make it.

Interesting show.

Will see how the weather looks on Saturday.

I popped in for about an hour not bad but a big expensive at £25, I did get a chat with Tiff Needell and saw Sterling Moss so wasn't all bad

Also popped along to Race Retro, on Friday. I guess it's popular especially because there's nothing much else on in the car world at this time. Much the same as last time. One highlight for me was seeing the Trident Iceni: http://tridentsportscars.com/the-car/94-statistics (nothing to do with Maserati even though some people seem to think so because of the name) and chatting to the bloke who designed the torque multiplier technology it's based on (essentially aimed at trucks, as a fuel saver, and they started out building the car as a demo). Looks much better in the metal than in pics; it's a big car; and so is the performance. And it's a green diesel!! (6.6L V8, huge torque, 0-60 in 3.7…but 70mpg and 2000 miles on one tank of chip fat ). About the same price as a GT.
