hi steve,
sorry to here you got the same annoyance at shelsley, that i had with the tv coverage.
i read every thread you put up pushing the event, BIG WELL DONE. id loved to have been there, but as a company i needed to attend beaulieu.
dont take it to heart if the numbers were down, it will be down to many different things like beaulieu, silverstone, even the cost of fuel and living. i understand beaulieu had 180 cars booked, we counted the rows and that looked more like 150 actually attending. were as 250 was banded about for last year.
AGAIN, this is nothing that was done wrong by the organisers etc, there was alot on that weekend. and alot of expence in peoples lives at the moment.
hopefully some of this will change next year, when everyone has had the 100% payrise to keep up with the cost of living. "SORRY but that also includes me having to double prices to keep up
"
all i hope, is many of those 400,000 at silverstone who were scratching there heads wondering why those old bangers were on the track. and when they got home hopefully some googled what they were.
and when i say bangers, its what people would think if they dont know whats in front of them. each and every car was actually in beautiful condition. i dont clean my car much. but i noticed they all sparkled.
