I hope you've attached some floodlights to simulate the rocket engines!!! We don't want a half baked job y'know!

9 TR7/TR8s on the stand this year so it should be a good advertisement for our favourite cars. Harris Mann will be joining us for a while on the Friday.

Planning to go on Sunday this year, with Roy.

I was lucky enough to meet Harris Mann on the stand a couple of years ago, got my picture taken with him [:I] Also had an interesting chat with a guy who had been in charge of emissions testing for a while at Speke for the US market cars - he had some tales to tell!

Hope to see some of you on Sunday.

Looks great and will no doubt be even better once it's in place with you in it Gaz.

Tony, the chap from Speke was Ron Jesson. I've interviewed Ron for the next couple of DVDs so his stories will not be lost.

Some fluffy polyester stuffing from the fabric shop would make those smoke clouds even better.
