Was quietly enjoying seeing the great pictures & appreciating the efforts the guys, who take the time to post them for us all to see, until I came to the below comment.
Don't think 50 wedges in one place is a failure & you don't have to blow your own whistle to show people, TR7's are being preserved.
Other Triumph Clubs won't loose any sleep if all TR7's rusted away, as I certainly don't think, when I see 200 Stags at an event - oh my goodness they are sought after - you get more reaction from multi make events when Joe public ( who usually attend events by paying at the gate to see more than rows of Triumphs ) sees a TR7 amongst the rows MG's Mini's & Moggie's.
Some people don't have the luxury of being able to have a free day off at the weekend or want to spend 4 hours there & 4 hours back to sit in a carpark.
Sometimes a hobby becomes too serious - life doesn't revolve around a TR7/8 for most of us.

Sadly we didn't do that.</b> But despite the dearth of our favourite cars it was a great show. Chunk's V8 around the Prodrive circuit was a sight (and sound) to behold as was the other red V8 driven by the Auckland brothers. Guess who got video of them both???
Loads of great cars and a great couple of days. A shame so many of you missed it all. But at least you can see the ten award winning cars including John Wood in TR7 Sprint SJW 550S...
