It was nice meeting you again (Chris, Scotty) and meeting you for the first time (Micky, Kevin - and family, Stuart) and hope you had a great time in the days which followed down in Cornwall and sorry I did not get a chance to say goodbye properly after the second shower.

Brilliant pics Nick I might as well post some of mine!
Look Scotty! I found your brothers!! You should have seen the time and measures they went to, to make sure their cars were in line!!
RB5 Scoobies (Richard Burns special edition) as far as the eye could see. It was a touching tribute as they went out on track after the one minute silence.
Nice to see two WRC Focus' out there!
I love these crazy cars!!
I have a video of this car doing a noise test. The track limit was 100db.. this got 126!!!
Some cracking old skool Fords too
All in all a thoroughly enjoyable day despite the weather (just ask Nick!)

Thanks for those Ayesha, they are great photos. It's amazing how good the Focus WRC looks up close, great pic.
A little bit of history about the RS200 in your third pic from the bottom. This is actually "B200AYD" or the very car that was built to race spec by Ford Boreham and campaigned in 3 events of the 1986 WRC by Stig Blomqvist (Sweden, Greece, UK) none of which he finished unluckily. I was a bit sad to see that despite the history and the pedigree, the current condition of this 200 left a lot to be desired. Let's just hope that Historic Rally Group make a thorough restoration on it soon.
Love those pictures Nick! Especially the one of the Blue Cossie. Was great to meet you as well and it was a good day despite the rain. I'll try and get some of my pictures up once i've downloaded them. Cornwall was great and the weather fantastic! Myself, Chris and Micky did end up putting our tents up at 12am Sunday morning in the pouring rain as we did get a littel lost on the way down . Glad to hear that you got back ok.
