I do apologise John, I wasn't intending to overtake the thread about football.
I will be attending Sunday myself depending on the weather, lets hope for a good turnout.

Well shure was a good day, we defo missed out on not attending this one, spoke to some of the organising committee, and was told we would have been more than welcome to have a display, so I have provisionally said I would be organising a specialist performance car stand for next years event..
Here are a few pic`s of this years event, excuse the poor quality, so much to see, dont know if I got round it all..
This outfit was straight out of Mad Max, powered by a Essex V6 via a auto g/box, to a cortina rear axle..
Ps. Spoke to the owner, and yes he does sleep in the trailer, visits Southend regularly with his wife..

All these steam engines are local to the area, so much going we very rarely see.

Due to the size of the event I thought it wise to get in early, will post pic`s up over the next few days, one big draw back with the event, I found that I recognised most of the cars/bikes there.
