Post by: wigit on March 29, 2011, 03:09:54 pm: The strip was a farce last year, always good bit of banter though

I also think the organisers of the stand space think a car is 1m wide

Post by: rdfcpete on April 04, 2011, 06:22:20 pm: Yep, as said Joe, it was quiet enough for back to back runs.

It got busy at one point queuing in the 3 bays with around a ten minute wait max. That must've been 11am ish.
The only wait like that afterwards was as people waited for the after lunch sprints with an equally big queue. Aside that, it flowed well.

I thought the show and shine turn out was pretty good for anyone that went?

Post by: GTIjames on April 04, 2011, 07:54:56 pm: Pod is great when its like that, went one time last year and got to do back to back runs ended up melting my front ps2's
makes the £25 fee worth while though :happy2:
