Just got back from this event. It was a wonderful few days and thank you to everyone for being such good company. For those who may be interested in next year: £350 for 4 nights in good 4**** hotel and ferry. The cars are well looked after when loading the boat. No speed limits on the roads out of towns - its worth going just for that. If you want a bit more from your car why don't you consider entering an event. You just need overalls, a timing strut and a licence which you can get on the internet. I did my first event and the instructions were not much more than 'when you see the green light, drive as fast as you dare up the hill and stop after the chequered flag.' Needless to say I came last but nobody really minds - its one big social event. This year there were people there who didn't enter but just came along for the holiday. More details on the new GTD website. I am a member of both clubs and wouldn't do anything which damages my precious car. Don't be afraid of being a beginner - give an event a go. it is real good fun...........
