Looks like we made it onto the thread on RR - http://retrorides.proboards.com/thread/181329/hill-thread

Well done, do you have any idea as to what time your runs are likely to be? Or is it a case of queueing once you get there?
We are staying locally so hopefully will arrive around 8.30 or so, will park up on Sports Alfa / Maserati stand. But whether or not we come in the Alfa is a bit problematical - the Mrs isn't keen on driving in the wet - I wonder why!
So thumbs pressed for decent weather

Watching the weather like a hawk at the mo ;)

60 cars, plus the guest cars go in the morning on the hill. Split into three groups, guest cars, first thirty second thirty all get three runs. Have the exact times at home but starts at 9ish. :)

Mine will launch perfectly, just may struggle to stop - brakes are very much like a 156, they work but leave you guessing!!

If anybody wants to do the hill in the afternoon booking is at the Retro Rides stand between 9am and 10am, but is on a first come first served basis :)

That looks bad Zag, but other sources are saying a early doors shower then fine till late afternoon. Supposed to rain today, I already be at work and I doubt it is going to. Best not, got to polish the car this arvo :)

So inconsistent weather reports at mo, think it be best to ignore them ;)
