Just wondered who is going to be at the Island next weekend for the Historic meet, either competing or looking or whatever.
They are expecting a huge entry list in all events. Obviously my favourite classes are Group N (XU1) and Group C (L34 / A9X) but there are plenty of other interesting classes as well.

I'm planning on being there Sat and Sunday.

What a great weekend, although I'm stuffed now...
Some great cars on display, both officially and in the carpark, great racing on the track, plenty of noise - it was all good.

Great day, some v-e-r-y nice pre war Alfas there P3, 159 that Fangio drove, I believe an 8C, 1750 and more, definatly the highlight, also Aston Martin DB3S, Ferrari 166, 4 turbo F1s, Bugatti Type 35, Masarati 300S, Lancia Stratos, etc. Still my favourite motoring event it's really the only event we have where true exotics are shown and raced.

Had some friends who went down on Saturday and they have sold me on it, I will be going next year for sure!

Has anyone got photos of Bob Jane's vehicle? I have heard that the restoration job is pretty breathtaking

This is a great event which I would highly recommend.

F5000 & a picturesque location makes a great combo.

Plenty of Toranas, racing & on display.

Did no-one get pics of a certain forum members car?? What I have seen (I will not take the liberty of posting without permission) it was gorgeously turned out, and apparently liked it's laps alot.
