Lauren 2259 Report post Posted August 3, 2013 Ooh let us know how you get on. I must admit the thought of it having anything to do with Chris Evans puts me off a bit. Can't believe your sons aren't interested! :eek: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

keelerad 256 Report post Posted August 7, 2013 Well the boys got grumpier as the day went on, don't think we'll bother taking them to any music only festivals as they just don't seem to enjoy listening to live music that they don't know (youth of today eh!)The event itself was very well organised, very small waits getting in and out of carpark which was situated outside circuit about a 10 mins walk.The track stuff was really more display than competition, but some were giving it some in a very wide range of vehicles (hypercars, astons, lambos, matras, F1 cars, Le Mans cars, Rally, funnies all in groups of 7), weather was really good, had some good Air displays as wellThis was the only 86 I saw on the Cooper tyres standThis where the car clubs were, in the car park/paddock just behind the pits, 7 cars each club, I was gutted we weren't thereSome of the 7 QuattrosKangaroo Kid and Lady VolunteersVulcanThe stagemore pictures here http://cars.uk.msn.com/features/chris-evans%E2%80%99-carfest-north-in-pictures Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
