Lovely day out! Very well organised, well done to Gibbo and all the other OcUK staff handling things.

Never did get a chance to go on the simrig, every time I checked there was a massive queue :p

Was great to get the Starlet out for a day. Some fantastic motors on show too! @tsinc80697 Saw your 600LT but hadn't a clue what you looked like so no idea if I walked past you or not!

Thanks to @Scania for letting me have a proper nose around the big truck.

My pleasure, it was great to finally meet you in person after all these digital years! :)

I'm sorry I didn't get round to have a proper nose around your beautiful car :cool: but thanks for the blips of the throttle when I was videoing, if you don't mind, can I post the video?

It was great to see @kindai again - lovely car! - and a pleasure to meet @B21ony with her video camera!

I was surprised by the level of interest in the truck, thanks all who came over for a chat and "tour" :)

My upmost thanks to @Gibbo and Overclockers U.K. for letting me and the little truck attend such a well organised and ran event, and thank you Gibbo for the tour, I had no idea just what OC/UK as a business has become in terms of an operation, it's remarkable to see what you have accomplished over 25 years.

Spie will be looking down in awe!

A great day, I met some great new friends and many of the forum family.

Edit:
Was I the only moron who couldn't figure out the high tech washroom? :o :D

I found the bottle of soap, what I thought was the sink but that's where my brain failed me.... :o

Absolutely fantastic day. Didn't get round to taking any photos but others will have done a much better job than me. As Scania said, crazy how much the business has expanded now. Simulator competition was great fun, Young Luke won it by a country mile but I had a good battle with Rob who just pipped me to 2nd in the end. The Crucial SSD I won is massively appreciated though! Cheers again for a great day, roll on the next one whenever it may be.

It was good of you to arrange decent weather too! Great turnout and my static numberplate even stayed on to keep the local constabulary happy. It has now fallen off and landed in the frunk though :D

Nice mix of cars, good pizza, and I only heard 1 BMW revving, great day out!

Even the police in attendance informed me it was one of the best car meets they have attended and would fully support and love another one in the future.

It was hard to keep track of numbers but we had around 140-150 show cars and over 100 visitor cars on day and circa 500 people in total throughout day.

The NASCAR revving was very nice and a big thank you to all who attended and helped make it a great day and very glad everybody really enjoyed it.

I took a lot of photos but for now I’ll just post these which I took after 4pm yesterday with just a handful of cars left mainly my own haha.

I shall post more later. :)

OcUK and other attendees took for more and better photos though I was too busy trying to chat to everyone and ensure everyone was happy. I somehow managed nearly 25,000 steps yesterday, LOL!

Thanks to Gibbo and the rest of the OcUK staff for a well orgranised day!

Having travelled 150miles with a "visitor" pass I didn't bother with anything more substantial than a quick jet wash at tesco a few minutes before arriving so I was surprised (and a little worried about the state of my car) when Gibbo waved me into the "show car" section on arrival to the car park instead.

I had a few good chats with Dave and his Skyline Collection (R32 to R35) and a couple of the other Audi RS drivers but I spent most of the morning showing my mates 8yo lambo mad kid around so couldn't chat as much as I'd like (never even thought about a "my name is........" sticker for easy ID) but both myself and the kid had a great morning!

Ps Special thanks to Sarah the red 458 owner who gave the kid a full tour of their stunning car!
