Only gripe this year was the comedy that was getting into the show. Been to the NEC many years for many different events and its usually free moving 5 mins to park etc. Something went wrong this time. 20 mins sat on the slip road. Decided to go round the other side of the Airport and get in that way. Sat in a traffic jam for 35mins.

we came in from the north M6/A446, hit a queue of traffic about ½ mile out from the car park I reckon, queue was in lane 1, we took lane 2 no queue, must of passed hundreds of car, round a couple of round-a-bouts, no pushin in, straight into the north car park 2 lanes / 2 barriers all the way in, I think all it needed was a couple of signs ‘use both lanes’ to counteract our British-ness for queues

Once it gets past 10am on the Sunday there are usually huge delays getting in and it gets even worse once the first few car parks are full and the traffic starts getting directed right around the site to the more remote car parks.

I'd like to extend a special thanks to all those that helped make the MMA Stabd at the Classic Car Show such a success, for Martin for all his help on the tand, to Steve, Roger and Kay, Pete and Julie, Terry as well as Dave and Helen from quartermile high.

The show was absolutely rammed every day, no one would have believed there is a recession on, I think Britain's motor enthusiasts needed cheering up.

Great to see Alex and Steph, together with a whole rake of MMA members., great to see you all...I've got a feeling that we may be looking at a race theme next year!
