I went on the Saturday and returned on the Sunday.
Don't know about the Saturday party, as I had go home
to make up some brownie points with the girlfriend for
going in the first place! I had decided to enter my
Spitfire in the 'Original Spitfire' class of the
Concours, so most of Saturday was spent cleaning it on
site. I did not manage to get out to see the cars
parked out the front of the Hall, but looking out from
the hall, there seemed to be a few more than the
Saturday.
The polishing paid off, as I won the class against
some very stiff opposition. Not bad for a daily driver
(10510 miles since last October and counting,
including 2000 from the '98 Round Britain Run). On the
strength of this, Triumph World are doing a feature on
it in a future issue - The photo's look good from what
I gather.
Enough blowing of my own trumpet! A good event, but a
bit expensive IMHO at £15 for a weekend, or £8 for a
day pass whether you are in the TSSC or not.
