Sportscars in the park SCITP Newby Hall 5th May 2024

[benzboss]

Agreed, was a lovely event.. Getting there was a pain in the **** but it was all worth it in the end, some really impressive cars on display (I couldn't get enough of that black ferrari 328 and the ferrari FF..)

Was especially fun to press it down that path at the exit gates! (and the traffic sure was an experience ) cheers for posting that event on the forum otherwise would never have known that was an existing thing tbf!

With a bit more planning in mind, it's definitely one I'll be attending next year too

Personally I wouldn't attend the sept 1 as it follows the flower show and was limited to 400 cars last year ,was a total waste of time imo

 

[benzboss]

Didn't know they did 2 a year, this one certainly seems a lot better and the one I'll be attending again..

We had a bit of a poor parking position this time around I think, we were more to the back on the far left side to C1.. Next to a lovely grey R107 300sl..

Think next time we'll make a point of coming a lot earlier to beat all that traffic and try get a better spot.

Did anybody else see the green BMW have to take to the grass because he was going too fast

@Wheelnut58 Don't think I caught that.. Was that at the exit gates? Didn't pay much attention to those until it was us leaving

There's videos out already of cars leaving; have a gander if you'd recognize any from earlier.

Yes at the out gate roughly between 2-2.30, went like a bat out of hell, then had to take to the left hand side grass cos he was going too fast

Yes he was revving the balls off it before he left

I was in the white Ftype parked on the righthand side about 500m after the entrance I did have a walk up to the german part to look at a couple of M3s
There was a lovely blue slk 172

1,463 display tickets sold, so loads to look at. I only took a few pics though.

What did you turn up in slim?
I was looking out for one of yours, but never seen any of them. Did you park up with the general public.

I was at home, too far to travel from london.

 

[23 Romeo Tango]

I thought that but I noticed you had commented on the 3 miles traffic and the Enzo.
Crystal balls?

 

[Spider10]

The enzo is there every year

Missed you yesterday Mick, had a couple of walkabouts but it was a bit busy.

Thanks for these Richie, I forgot to take any (again). Recognise that Quatro with the 4 ring tailpipe from last year.
See you on Friday mate, I'll be in a pub around 4:00PM, probably the Ship & Bell

I saw you leaving, heading down the path passing my old (non Mercedes) truck. Sorry I didn't get a chance to speak, had walked too far and was getting tired.

Great pics. The audi quattro was one of my favourites and was getting a lot of attention
