Pics will be in the gallery asap along with my full review.

For now tho it was ace.

good pics took me about an hour to look through them all tho hehe

We stopped at a lay by to let everyone catch up and you couldnt pull in time despite dazza trying to let you in.

Was a great weekend.

Got there late friday night due to Dazza working late, arrived about 11:30pm and had some trouble at the gate as they had stopped letting people in for the night, and told us to camp down the road and come back in the morning, but with thanks to Mark and the organisers daughter we got in nicely.

Set up camp and got straight in with the banter and mark's "late night club".

Saturday was windy at first and was great to see the club stand getting constructed. Looked great. Shame we didnt have jay's rangey in there.

All the cars there were amazin and the girls were gorgeous, and was nice to see a few old friends :-)

The o-60 strip was great and the yellow skyline was amazin at 3.6 seconds, the flamer show was also very cool and I missed the light show but then evening a few of us went to the Ministry Of Sound Building for a party and that was very impressive, what a night.

Sunday: Was very hot, 2 or 3 cars on the club stand, and a few people spent alot of money on the trade stands. But the convoy home?? Uh Oh!! We all left at 1pm leaded by Mav, slowly fell apart when a group of us left mav's convoy by taking a wrong turning and ending up near newcastle (thanks dikky) lol and then when we caught up with them at a service station, they all left while Dazza was filling up so we caught up and then some how a few of us went straight past and after a while, we were ahead on our own, and again, took a wrong turning.

But after all that, we were still the first people to birkenhead, and heard that mav's group ended up near the lake district and are still on the way back as I type.

But all in all, great weekend, thanks to Mark for the food and the entertainment with the questions for Miss Bacardi 2005, thanks to everyone else who went for making it a great atmosphere and cant wait for USC.

I thought it was ok like.

Lots of cars there, i personally prefered some of the ones in the club stands to the show ones, some of the show ones just looked tacky. seen some really mint cars though, 3 door sierra cossie, white turbo'd civic coupe very subtley styled, 106 which had power caps in the ass part of the passanger site, would be good if i had pictures because they were really mint!

little bit sun burnt, done about 110miles more than i should of thanks to someones great directions but wasn't that bad over all...

forgot to say earlier thanks to everyone who organised it! much appreciated

Just thought Id come on and say it was good to see you guys!!

Bye for now!

Had a fun weekend.

There was a fair there and I got bruised! All good fun!

Saw Evo 7 Babe there looking very good! Happy for you hun! Few of us members got her on the cars for a few quick pics before we left!

Broomy you are a right laugh as linsy said! You and your dark cruisers/cruisewirral reuniting hat! - again ALL GOOD BANTER!

Weather on Saturday let us down a lot with it being very windy, but the atmosphere there from other people and their stands was great.

What a weekend!
Well where do i start?
Great thanx to all Admin/Mods you all where a vital part in its success. Think we can all safley say that we have grown closer together because of it - So whos up for Ultimate Street Car (USC)!

Had a strange friday, i was in work 11:30am - 8 so i couldnt exactly concentract in work with the excitement, then i got annoyed with the Fiesta SI so 5mins later i had sold it

Left at 9pm with djreneg after lastminute mods/packing and it was an ok journey, drove threw the moors and i could not see a thing threw all the fog. Arrived at Nationals at 11:40 to be told were being refused access till 9:30am so i was annoyed to say the least! Spoke to Webmaster and he sorted things with the organisers daughter and we were allowed in, then had to build my tent in the dark @ like midnight! I became part of the latenighters club and had such a laugh with webmaster and his stories and the input from other members. Only had 2hrs sleep before i had to wake up at 7am!

Moved are cars onto the showstand saturday morning and had a wonder around, such nice cars like a MINT 3dr series 1 sierra cossie and a sweet orange evil ka! On the friday nite i was told there was 13thousand people here and i can well believe it! Good on ya to those that did the 0 - 60 and 1/8th mile hope you post your results up and what about the competition, my personal favorite was the sierra cossie that struggled to fight the backend fishtailing all over the show!

The cars @ the show where truley amazing to say the least and so many new ideas!

Big thanx to Evo7babe who model'd on my car

Convoy home was cool, even if it did take ages we had a laugh! Meesh what is the difference between overtaking and undertaking anyway

All in was an amazing event and really glad i went!

Just awaiting the piccies now

Just sorting my pics now after leaving my camera in Scooby's pimp mobile lol

Awesome weekend! so sunburnt and tired!

Apologies to everyone for not being in the best of modds, was sufereing VERY badly from sun stroke and exhaustion

anyways, onto my report...

Friday, started for me at the stroke of midnight, after the meet on the Thursday I toddled off to Bidston Tesco's for some last minute things and to fill up with petrol.
Got back to Gadget's around 1ish, fell asleep about 2am.
Back up at 4:30am to get some coffee and get myself ready to go
When we arrived at the convoy point it hit me just how many of us where going!

Convoy left dead on 6am with a couple of stragglers who dont do mornings (Aggy & Mister Adam) catching us up en-route
Considering it was a Friday morning the motorways were pretty quiet
We stopped off at a services, with Scooby leading half the convoy into the HGV car parck
We all got into the same place eventually to find Lazy Ben had been involved in a scary moment with his car suddenly being aroused by the cones on the motorway!
A check over his car and a cooked brekkie later, we headed off on the 2nd part of the journey

Arrived at the Nationals around 10am to find just 2 cars at the gates and the gates not even being open yet!
Had about a 20 minute wait while the staff ran around getting things sorted then we were allowed in.
All the excitment got to me and I went and had a little play on the grassed camping area...it was too big and empty to be left alone! lol

We all parked up and proceeded to put up our tents and make ourselves at home...and I started on me beer

The day was sooo hot! managed to get sunburn on that day whilst having a laugh with everyone, playing footy and watching the gorgeous cars turning up

Friday night saw the opening of the fair, me, Aggy, Vixen and a few others (sorry, cant remember the rest lol) had a go on the walsters and the bumper cars (they were awesome! ).
It also saw the late arrival of Dazza (part timer) and DJRenegade (another part timer) as they arrived after the gates were closed his car was left in "quarantine"(sp) and he had to put up his tent in the dark. Serves himself right for not prioritising us before work
The night continued as me, Webby, Aggy, Tony220, Vixen, Dazza, DJRenegade and Miss Bacardi 2005 (sorry cant remember ya name) formed the late night club and managed to reek havok lol
Ended up with about half an hours kip

Saturday morning started at 6ish. I was sore, still drunk and suffereing the first effects of sun stroke, but hauled myself up, opened a can of beer and drove my car over to the show stand
Once all the cars were there it looked spot on! Aggy, Gadget and Civic Pete taking center stage, one of my pics show this site, looked great guys!
I headed back to the camping area for me brekkie (a burga) then went for a walk round the club and show stands
The standard of cars was out of this world, it was just so unfortunate that the wind was so strong that day, people kept having to clean their cars every hour!
Saturday was brought to a close with the flamer show and car lighting show which were brilliant!
The Sierra winning the flamer show was out of this world, the flames were so big! no1 else stood a chance lol
The car lighting was won by last years winner, and it deserved it in my eyes, 2nd was an unreal 106 with 4 15" subs in the back all lit up and 3 12" subs in the boot lit up, also with a laser making patterns in the car and out of it! 3rd was an Alfa Romeo which was gorgeous, all the curves were subtly lit up with small white cathodes. Really set the car off nicely

Sunday was the day it all caught up on everyone I think, we started packing the cars with our stuff around 8ish, had bacon butties curtesy of chef Webby and a few put their cars on the show stand again, I put my car down the 1/8 mile strip then put me car back on the stand.
Left the Nationals around 1pm, and oh my what a convoy home!!
First off we had to stop at a services to wait for Dikky5, Mister Adam, Broomy and Dazza who missed a turn off and were heading towards Sunderland!
We re-grouped and re-started, as the journey dragged on I got bored and had a little bit of banter with Dazza as we formed our very own "Extreme Overtaking Club"
Me, Dazza and Vixen then went off ahead to get home quicker than the rest, missed a turn but only took about 20mins longer as we turned round and got back on track
Pulled into Birkenhead around 5:30ish, rang to see where the rest where, Broomy, Jimbo, Rocco and Scoop where home......Maverick, Mister Adam, Scooby's B*tch, Aggy and Sted where, however, far from home...the Lake District to be more exact! lol
bless them, good to hear everyone got home ok in the end though, I returned to me house to get a nice long relaxing hot bath then went to bed....but forgot I'd left everything in my car to sort out today(monday)
So I used some towells as pillows as I couldn't be bothered goin back out to me car lol

I've still got me wrist band on and the number on me rear window from the 1/8 mile strip still living the spirit of the show!

Although overall the weather got people on a downer, I still think this was a top weekend and wanna be back there when I think about it!

Cant wait to catch up with everyone at the next meet to catch anything I missed

Big thanks to everyone who went! it wouldnt have been such a great weekend without you guys!
And not forgetting Delia aka Webby! Great work for the weekend matey, I know it wasnt so good being stuck behind the BBQ all weekend, but the grub was VERY much appreciated!

Once again, thanks all for a great weekend!
