Well I think its time to call it a wrap on the poll, it has been pretty consistent on about an 80/20 split in favour of Luego Owners Club.
So Mark if you could get the banner organised for that I and the rest of us would be grateful. Cheers.
Anyway I have today had confirmation From Newark that we will be allocated stand 53 in the displays area as per their map
Linky to page with map
Other info for those camping from Friday evening there will be free entertsinment on Friday evening as well as Saturday night party. this will be form
7pm in the Cedric Ford building.
Exhibitors can arive FROM 7:00AM, you do not need to wait for public opening times. The public access halls do not open until 10am Saturday and 9:30
on Sunday.
In total we had 32 people voting in the poll, It would be nice if we could get ALL 32 of us there, I know you are a great bunch of lads and that you
will all do your best to make it.
Big John do you know if the "Beast" will be attending as a rolling chassis.??????
Provisions wise I think Stoneleigh worked pretty well, so I will try and do the same again from my side.
Lets put on an even better show this Newark. (16th & 17th June)
i would say that at the moment the beast will be attending, barring any major problems, the chassis my not be painted as i don't know how long
the dry build will take, or how many mods we will need to make, but it will be there.
fingers crossed, if mark has worked the wiring out right, it will be a runner!!!!!!!
To see the beast is reason enough on it's own to attend!
Two weeks to get the engine running and a rolling chassis
Have been building mine for 3 years and the engine still has not run!!!!!!!.
Good luck!!!
looking forward to seeing it

Very close to finishing now.
May even start the engine in the next week. Once it starts I will put in my SVA application. Then panic over everything else that needs finishing.

Will be there IN the Luego this time (fingers crossed), Should arrive Friday evening
it should be a rolling chassis by the weekend, have decided to go 4 stud, wanted to go granada 5 stud but would have to have to many parts made
special, and would have to use second hand hubs ect, so getting the last few bits tommorow ( thursday ) 4 stud from rally design,
the good news is, from info given the engine will go under the bonnet, might sit on the engine but it will be under a standard bonnet.
Ok so I am now not going to be bringing one of my kids with me. He has found something more important than cars. Yep a FEMALE.
[SO if you are from the luego Group and you are going for Both days AND you will be attending in your tin top then I have A spare entry ticket. If you
would like it then u2u me.
on your marks, get set, GO.]
TICKET GONE

Hoped so
You were right about the weather Richard! Really needed monsoon tyres on the way up on Friday. Must get some sort of roof sorted.
I would just like to thank ALL you lads (and lasses) that turned up. Whilst the weather did put a bit of a downer on things, the effort that you ALL
put in was much appreciated.
Mark & John, I just hope that we don't get an ASBO for your wee beastie after this weekend. (Yes I STILL so want to press THAT button.
can't you see the grin from where you are.)
Neil, your motor was a joy to see and certainly looks worth all the effort and un-necessary hassle you had to endure.
Mel, good to see you again.
Geoff, really glad to see you again mate, Glad that you dried out and hope you had a good journey home.
To all those that I have not mentioned in person, It was good to see you there and thank you for coming. If you came with a car well done and well
turned out. If you are still building, keep going cos like me you must be nearly there and it will be nice to get to next years shows with a finished
car.
Thanks to all from Clive.
Clive,
I think we all owe you a huge vote of thanks for sorting things out (again) - The banners looked great and there was lots of interest from all of the
onlookers.
Having a wander around the site I think the LOC certainly made it presence felt (and heard!) and the cars all looked the business. A suggestion for
the next show (from walking around at the Goodwood festival of speed a few years ago) - We could do with some info sheets on the cars - I have an A4
laminator and would be happy to do these up if people emailed through a worked up sheet - Nothing fancy, but questions like; Where did you get you
engine? How long did it take? What'll she do? etc. seemed to be asked often.
My over fuelling seemed to have improved a bit from the run up as the run back was a blinder - I don't think I overtook anything less that 3 cars
at a time
Donnington it is then - Hopefully a few more on the road by then.
Cheers, Neil.
I'll seconded that. Thanks for all your hard work and getting us together.
It was nice to meet some new faces and catch up with those from previous shows.
Lets hope for better weather at Donnington.
And all you Velocity owners get them out there, It felt like the Viento owners club at times
Sorry I couldn't meet up - hopefully will be at the next one...
thanks to all for making me and mark so welcome as the newest members of the club, i think we got a good responce to my "bike" engined car,
although the bike engine was only an 8.0 and a gen2 engine, i like the idea of it being a bike engined car so i'll go with that!!!!!, i hope i
can get it looking as good as all the others.
and here are the photos for clive.
Its not a bike engine the car was first so shut up lol
Unless your buying me one in which case its a bike engine pmsl.
Was really good to see you all had a great weekend oh and BTW did i actually miss anything worth seeing i spent so long talking about the beast i
didnt see bugger all pmsl

Hmmmm nice pics.
I'll add my thanks to JGG for organising us.
Good to see all the familiar faces again.
Didn't know I could lip read until the V10 beast was fired up, mind you once my eyeballs started to vibrate, even that was impossible
aaarrrggghhhhh mah ears..............pardon?
Innovation award goes to Martin (piddy) for the truely inspired softop on his Velocity. Megga cheap but brilliantly effective.
See you at Donnington
Dave
It was really good to see some of the cars in the flesh. The V10 was amazing. wasn't sure where the Luego stand was but once it was fired up I
knew where to find it.
Was suprised to see Neil's car there on Sunday (although I didn't see you) Looks amazing, you must be chuffed to bits.
Phil
Cheers, Phil.
I work in Warwick so if the weather ever clears up I'll bring it in and I've got an excuse to go out at lunchtime
