Subject: Re: New Year's Day 2016 - Activities?
Richard,
I'm a staunch supporter of Brooklands and love everything about the place but in my opinion the NYD meeting has always been a bit disappointing. Hundreds of cars but more modern classics than older, more interesting, classics/vintage/veterans. Just not quite my cup of tea. I saw quite enough Ford Capri's, Escorts, Vauxhall Viva's and Hillman Avenger's when they were new! (I even had one of each!)
We are members of the Maidstone Historic Vehicle Group and they always have a very good road run and lunch on NYD so we will be joining them. I'm keener on driving my cars that parking up and looking at them so this is more our thing. If you're near me and fancy coming I would happily make the arrangements for you to be our guests.
It will be interesting to hear what other members have in mind so well done for starting this topic.
David
