Knockhill Scottish Kit Car Show
JonBowden - 12/8/07 at 05:37 PM

Just got back from Knockhill.
As usual, I enjoyed the racing and the weather was quite good
I was somewhat disappointed at the kit cars. I didn't have high expectations but all that I saw that were of interest were a few Westfields (all very nice, esp one twin cam pre-lit), a Caterham (nice), one MK and a Sylva Star (I think it was Zilspeeds)
Not exactly a kit car show, just a few nice cars turning up

Yep, I gave this one a miss and went to the Biggar show today instead.

Not sure who was touting it about that it was the "Scottish Kit Car Show". I looked on the Knockhill site yesterday and it stated 60-80 kitcars to look at and find out about.

It pissed with rain at Biggar - glad I took the tintop. And Zilspeed actually having a car at something?? Surely not!

I was staying near Biggar last night - in West Linton. Played Forza with my son and brother in law 'till late.
Was the Biggar show any good?

I quite enjoyed it but it depends what your into. They always have a lot of good commercials on display with it being organised by the Albion Foundation.
Cars on display were OK nothing really stood out thoug. Autojumble was pretty good I picked up a couple of things.

I can exclusively reveal - it wisnae mine. That's a Leader - mine is half Leader, half Star, or a LeadStar as I like to call it.

(I now feel personally challenged JC - you're gettin' it as the saying goes.)

Hang on a minute to I upload a few pics of what visited me last night.

Like, whatever....

Anway - hows about this.

MGB GT V8 - with the injection fitted and running twin side exhausts. It still had chickens in it the last time I saw it around 7 years ago. Twill be visiting a hillclimb near you soon. (Mate of mine has just finished the restoration.)

Pic taken in the bucketing rain at around 11.30 pm last night.

The MG looks good - a Sebring MGC replica

Get your car on the road and you and the boy Thoirs can get a bit of a Fife convoy together.
