deltamal Posted August 3, 2008 Report Posted August 3, 2008 Good day out! the stalls were expensive, oil's etc for the same price as Halfords! a big thanks for all who organised the day
steve dray Posted August 3, 2008 Report Posted August 3, 2008 well i like the osf stand and the classic ford stand the auto jumble sort of,but im not going next year as was like walking round a new ford show room,as osf's seam to be a bit scare to when i first started going which was 5yr's ago it was swamed with osf Yeah wot you said Lee, ^^^^^^^^ except it was only my 3rd time at ford fair My favourite bit of the day was the drifting demo at 5 ish, that Irish guy in the green mk2 was class
mk2dk Posted August 4, 2008 Report Posted August 4, 2008 Yes a great show and a fine OSF stand. Prices was a little high, but it was funny to actually see and feel the differance in quality, on reproduced parts. Bought some strut-top plates and other strenghtning plates from Roy Nunn, just tried them on my Escort, and they fit like a glove. We left at 4 pm and had to drive to Stansted airport. Traffic was terrible and we just maneged to deliver our rental car, check in, go through security and had to run rest of the way to the plane, which left at 7.45 PM Perhaps next year will bee in the Escort. Think I missed that blue Focus - but I saw a mondeo
shaun1.6ghia Posted August 4, 2008 Report Posted August 4, 2008 had a great day, thanks to all.. there was quite a few osf's there. did anyone see the super mint mk1 cortina?? and the black jellymould going super sideways round the s-bend part bout 2.30??? it was wild, went sideways so much further than that japcrap that went on the track. and anyone see the yellow mk2 escy overtake one of the silverstone lotus's was sooo funny..

surfingturnip Posted August 4, 2008 Report Posted August 4, 2008 that mental escort going round was a white rally style one. Great show and glad to have met some new people saw the drift cars briefly when they were out early on during the session that the red mk1 crashed. We had to go before the drift demo went on though due to the 4 hour drive back
