Agreed, Woody on his RSV race bike, Tesla and various other modern stuff, including some Renault MPV!

It's a shame they're missing out on one of the fastest cars on the day. Miserable sods.

One last blag attempt on the day though.

Went to Kop Hill last year at the invitation of a friend who has a 1939 MG N - didn't do too well on the hill - slope angle and carburetor float problems!) It is usually an excellent day.

Had a quick look at the runners and riders and as far as I could see no Atoms were entered for the climb ( according to their website they have now closed hill climb entries as both days are full!)

Can't come this w/end as I will be in France on the D-Day trip.

He's a decent bloke, always has time for car people. His LaFerrari last year was very quick and very green  ;D

Yes, time is slipping away for Bedford. Work is getting in the way  >:(

Aha considering I grow up in Risborough I have never found the opportunity to go along. Always seem to be on holiday or otherwise busy. I hear JK normally turns up with several cars and steals the day. Be good to get the upper hand mate! Gutted I can not make it!

We need to try and get on track at some point as we spoke about before. If not at least another early morning run out  :tu:

That's a shame. Hoping to get up the hill and give JK a good kicking :D

I seem to mis this every year! Unfortunately I am trailering the atom back to its birth place for a bit of Ariel lovin on Saturday. Spending the week in Weymouth, hence why it is going on a trailer.

This weekend the weather looks good, I will be heading up there on Sunday and possibly a bit of Saturday. It would be great to catch up with some others if you're free?
