Cant think what to add that hasn't already been said... we were well overdue for some decent weather and I'd say we got what we deserved 
Shame the Bugjammers got the wet weekend that we'd normally have got instead but I guess they were less affected if the track was too wet 
It was great to see the fire up road full nearly all Friday (tho a bit quiet Saturday?) and the Show'n'Shine nearly full on Saturday, rather than just the Sunday.
I thought there was a great balance between RWYB (even tho a few hot hatch types got thru
), Pro Mod, NSS, Gasser Circus... and all the other invited classes. Even the segregation of the pits for the different classes looked like it worked well, even tho it meant we couldn't get our usual camping spot (where the NSSers were) and had to pitch up at the top end by the big top. Not such a bad thing as there's some newer, cleaner loos up there that are little used compared to the others. But don't tell anyone else 
Apart fro the weather, a bonus for us was coming away with a trophy... best 69... no sniggering at the back!
Quite a surprise with all the other fab, and frankly better 1969 cars there, but we're not complaining!
The only gripe I can think of from the whole weekend is how on earth Vince Donald didn't get a trophy for his amazing 66 hemi Coronet?!
Maybe next year
