November Caffeine and Classics, despite the Beach Hop as a distraction, and the grubby weather, still a healthy turnout, but about half the usual, with no need for the overflow car parks.
Several groups were there in considerable numbers, including Lotus, Early Holden, Ford Cortinas and Corsairs, plus a large group of Italian cars, mainly Alfas. As always, cars I hadn't seen there before and several catch ups with other enthusiasts.

Found the answer - John Vevers photo - there were 8 Corsairs there as Ray would have seen - Didn't think there were that many in NZ - some recent imports by the Rego's

Well, I have booked and paid for my flights to do Goodwood in 2021 so hopefully, there will be at least one V16 running. I have only ever seen one running, way back in 2000. I am also in touch with the Bourne Museum and have arranged a private viewing on the Tuesday before Goodwood - assuming of course that the Goodwood date is the usual one, otherwise I'll have some major reshuffling to do....
PS: Just found out the dates have been announced. Revival is one week later than expected (September 17th to 19th) so I do indeed have to reshuffle everything.
Managed to get the Bognor Regis Premier Inn sorted, so it is now over to my travel agent to change the flights.
Ho hum. So much for planning early.
PPS: The flight back from LAX to AKL now $700 more than I'd paid...

The Greg Bellingham XJS making a long awaited return to the track today, driven by Todd Forsyth, whose Telstar was being driven by father Paul, but, just behind Todd here is Greg Bellingham, first time out in this MGB GT and also on track, in a BMW, Greg's daughter Casey!

Took the bazooka lens but it was playing up. Not sure why it wouldn't auto focus. Maybe not enough juice in the camera battery?
Nope. I think it needs a repair to the Auto/Manual focus switch. Ho hum...
