Tim
Hadn't planned to and don't know much about it, what does it cover? or is that too wide a question to answer?

I'm going on 9th (Fri) which is still a trade day - or for competitors with MSA license.

Autosport International Racing Car Show

 

[Mike Pass]

I will be there as usual on the first trade day. (8th)
The show has just about everything motorsport. Most of the big players are there. Just about every type of competion car. Also the autosport engineering section is jaw dropping. They have things I didn't know existed like a 5 axis miller that will make an engine block from a huge alloy billet in one go or a McLaren titanium hub that you can move by blowing on it! The weirdest one I saw one year was a solid cube of steel about 6" each way - it had been signed on one face - they had then used spark erosion to cut the signature all the way through the block to the other face. Always something interesting - sometimes female and in painted on hot pants.....
Cheers
